You want to talk about tired of renting? Send me your email and I’ll send you pics of my one bedroom shack in Northpark. Of course I would rather own. I am however not limited by pets, wives, children or any other encumberance.
Govt bailouts are a way of life in America, just not for individuals.
As to luck of the draw, I have had mostly good luck, but then again, I have low expectations for renting, which is why I live in Northpark to begin with.
do see alot of buyers out there who are buying with a wary eye and a sound strategy. How so? If rent to own equations are still so out of whack, with affordability at all time lows, what strategy could these people be using? I realize that some on this board use emotional metrics instead of the financial ones I prefer, but the problem with those is that they are not objective. You can’t really discuss what pride of ownership is worth, at least not at an individual level. If you are going to talk strategy, then be objective about it. If there are people buying on a strategy, what is it?
