I know I’m supposed to want it to keep going up as a wealth generator or whatever.
But like… I wouldn’t be able to afford the monthly payments if I bought my house right now and it’s scary. Also none of my friends are buying homes, none of them are even renting full places. Just like renting rooms.
So what are your feelings home owners of lemmy?
Don’t forget the increasing property taxes!
This was my thought, next year my escrow increases by $100 because my property is supposedly 50% more valuable? Nope, it’s a wealth stealer, not a generator.
Let’s also not forget that in a high value market you can’t magically sell a more expensive house and acquire a less expensive house of equal value. You have to downsize and the house of lesser value is still overinflated.
