Participant“It’s worth what it will rent for! ” That is basically a false statement.
99% of the time it always costs more to buy than to rent – that’s why many communities get upset when renters start moving in en mass, sorry to be blunt but renters are usually in a lower income bracket (b/c it’s cheaper to rent) vs. their owner neighbors.
Buying, under “normal” circumstances, generally means a person is financially stable, has a stable job and is putting down roots – all important factors to a community.

ParticipantAs I have read through various posts over many months, there seems to be quite a few posters (renters primarily) who seem to believe that they are basically entiltled to live in a certain community just as soon as the prices adjust to their expectations and reality.
That’s just another way of saying they can’t afford (in most cases) to live where they think they should or want to live.
My suggestion (asked for or not), and I have suggested this before:
Step 1: Buy a house/condo (or whatever) you can afford that is reasonably close to work, etc.., get a fixed mortgage 30 year mortgage. Put down some money (5-10%) so that you have a vested interest in your community.
Step 2: Enjoy life
Life is way to short to be worried about the things people worry about on this board.
I bought my house 5 years ago, I can afford it, it’s where I am raising my family and that’s it. I really don’t care what the value is – you to can be in this position. I wish it were bigger, but oh well that’s life.
Stop being so greedy and self righteous. The system is rigged anyway, just be realistic about your expectations – you may not be able to live in del sur or 4s Ranch – again, that’s life.
