[quote=spdrun]Not evaluating a primary home as compared to market conditions (i.e. rents for a similar home) is making a bad investment. Why not buy a few better investments, then rent the same home with the income?

And if you’re doing to buy, why not buy closer to the beach for the same price, which is a more attractive area?[/quote]
Because it suck living in a rental. I wouldn’t want to be living near the beach. If its not beach front, then I don’t care. I rather have ocean view on the east side of the 5.
