ignorant buyers still alive and well in orange county

[NotCranky]

They both lived at home and therefore never even had any history of making real rent payments. They make 90k a year and can’t save while living at home with mommy and daddy. They buy a fixer, money pit that is depreciating. How do they qualify even with a little grant? This stuff isn’t real right? Is it April fool’s day instead of Thanksgiving?

I love this line:

“Price values have gone up so much it’s so hard for somebody to qualify for a house,” he says. “They need extra help.”

Huh? Maybe for low income, but prices will fall to meet middle incomes, like this couple’s. This is not a charity case.

Or this:

“They held to their traditional values – they each wanted to stay living with their parents until they married.

Saving money was a big part of their decision.

‘I didn’t really feel like paying rent so why leave?’ Brayden says.”

Gee, he didn’t “feel like” paying rent. So he mooches off his family. What do “traditional values” have to do with that? And as Rustico pointed out, with $90k income and no or low living expenses they still couldn’t save any money.

Excuse me while I go vomit.
