Condo yikes. Condos are just glorified apartments in my opinion. Neighbors connected to you, can't blast music at 3am whenever you want, if the building needs a repair or the owner wants to upgrade it you have to contribute, etc etc. I refuse to buy a condo or a mobile home.
Asking a real estate agent whether you should buy a home right now is like to asking an alcoholic whether they think you should have a drink lol. Homes in my neighborhood that cost around $450k in sales in 2019 are now going for $800 to $950k. Every seller in my neighborhood is currently making a $350k profit. Simply unreal. In all honesty, deflation is what we require. The only other option is for many people to go bankrupt, which would also be bad for the economy. That is the only way to return to normal.

Despite utilizing the correct strategies and possessing the right assets, there can still be variations in the investment returns among different investors. It is important to acknowledge that experience plays a crucial role in investment success. Personally, I realized the significance of this and sought the guidance of a market analyst, which enabled me to substantially grow my account to nearly a million. I strategically withdrew my profits just before the market correction, and now I am taking advantage of the buying opportunities once again.

Paid mine off in 15. Im 40 now. Self employed artist almost my entire life. Now I pay nothing to live in my home. I pay 1000/yr for insurance. bought home for 65k. 700/mo payments. Most people make the mistake of investing in NEW cars or trucks. My home only increases in value every year. A car or truck that is 20k, cost 1/3rd of my home, and in 15 years, will be worth a couple thousand at best. So they paid 30k for a car loan that is now worth 3k. That house that cost 65k, that cost 100k in loans, now is worth 100k after 15 years.

I tried to explain this to my friends when I was younger, and they couldn’t grasp it. I tried to get them to understand that with a 30 year mortgage you were essentially paying for the house twice. This was when homes were much more affordable. With today’s prices, I’m scared to think what the future holds.

Refinancing a mortgage is not always a bad deal. I took out a 30 yr mortgage years ago at 6% interest. After 10 yrs I refinanced to a 15 yr mortgage at 3% thus lowering my monthly payment and reducing the length of my mortgage by 5 years. Closing costs on the refinance was minimal as well. If you're smart and your timing is right, it can pay off doing this.

I remember the real estate agent trying to get me to buy something bigger because I had the credit and income to afford it. He called the house I selected a "starter home" I took out a 30 year loan. I paid extra on principal every month and paid it off in 11 years. My interest rate was 6.75%. Had I got the house I could barely afford vs. what I needed, I would be just now paying it off 30 years later. I'm a single male living in a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house. Why would I need more house?

Video basically describes how amortization works on a mortgage and how more and more people are unlikely to stay in the house they just bought for long enough to actually pay off any of the principle of the loan. Essentially meaning that if one just stays in a house they own for a couple years before moving, they are basically just renting from the bank as little to none of the loan was paid off.

It’s deciding between renting from a place that has ever rising costs and seeing zero return on your investment or choosing a fixed monthly loan payment that builds at least some equity. Yeah mortgages are bad as investments usually but renting means 100% losses. A mortgage mitigates that loss.

Dude I lived in a 10 store apartment block in Siberia and this is the best type of housing if you want to come out and have 20+ kids playing around any time of the day, instead of this American suburbia model where you need to walk for miles to stumble upon another human. It is also funny to note that Brits say that apartments like that smell like piss and people would use elevator as a toilet, but in Omsk where I`m from, in the full absence of any CCTV no one have ever pissed in the elevator, which just shows the difference between cultural level of post USSR and UK. Tower block is not the problem, its of a people problem. This individualism taken to extreme and fear of any collective is a sign of a society with low level of culture and lack of decency. If you have decent people around you, who wash dishes and clean up their place, sharing a house or living in a dorm is not an issue. I lived in a shared house with an American white kid who was a foreign student and with a Polish dude, I would say - I would rather share a house with Pole than live in a separate house on the same street with an American. Complete absence of any empathy or ability to understand other peoples perspective, basic Christian values - do not act to others as you wouldn`t like to be acted upon by others. I honestly don`t even know how do Americans manage to live in such a society where no one cares about anyone and everyone is aggressively protecting his little chunk of grass in front of the house.

Own or rent? When I went into the Army I saw a chance to do something special. The Army moved me around (19 moves in 24 years) . Each time i was stationed in the States I bought a duplex. I would live in one half and rent the other half for the mortgage payment. When I moved, I rented the other half. At the end of my service (24 years) I owned 11 duplexes. Sold 7. With this money I built my "dream home" with no mortgage. Still have the additional income from the remaining duplexes. Since all are outside military bases, I always have tenants.

I was lucky enough to buy a house around 2005 when prices were high but not as crazy as now. Looked to pay it off faster knowing what interests do over time(+being younger is the right time in life for this), which I did after some years of hard work and sacrificing on other expenses. Yet, according to my parents, I actually kinda screwed up that I didnt either try to take a bigger mortgage for a larger house or didnt go for another property straight after. I find it kinda worrying that a lot of people now share this sentiment of completely overlooking the possible dangers of saddling themselves with debt because properties would supposedly always be worth it.

Average middle class salary and single. No outside financial help from anyone. Never made a lot of money in my life. No inheritance or gifts. Still bought a three bedroom townhouse in a large city. How? All I had to do was make the simple decision to live in a city I could afford. I had to balance cost of living against available salary in my field. Would I love to live somewhere else? Somewhere considered more “desirable”? Sure! But being financially responsible and cautious is more important. Next, yes the 30yr mortgage costs you an enormous amount of interest. However, unless your neighborhood REALLY goes downhill, the property will likely be worth what you’ve paid for it over those 30 yrs (minus the property taxes and major repair costs, approximately). Ultimately, it still costs you less than renting a similar property and you have a valuable asset to your name. Furthermore, once you’ve paid off that house and you’re an empty-nester you can rent it out and live somewhere smaller. This doomsday mentality of most people not being able to pay off their mortgage is silly. Yea… if you’re 50 and buy a house on a 30yr mortgage, you’re pretty dumb and you’re pushing your luck, obviously. Buy a house you can afford on a 15 or 20 or mortgage at most! So many people have this entitlement mentality that they have to buy the huge home in their 20’s just to keep up with the Jones’s. Be financially responsible. Don’t buy things you can’t afford to buy in cash (including education) Buy a small house. This isn’t rocket science, folks.

Sounds like some bullshit landlord propaganda. Look at who this content creator’s guest is and what stake he might have in you not owning anything.
As a landlord, I had tp pray the tenants I rented to were keeping the property up. Most "home owners" are basically renting from the banks, but they're much more likely to keep the place up cuz they think they own it and they're also hoping to get more at resale. Genius!
The point is this. Let's say you buy a house for 300k. You could end up paying double by the time you pay it off. But what's a real killer is the what else you pay. Stamp duty, broker fees, maintenance, upgrades, roofs, pest control etc etc. With renting you don't pay this stuff. So let's say that renting is roughly the same as your mortgage, 1k a month. Yes you are in theory chucking that 1k away, but you could take the other say 300-400 a month that you are saving from not owning, invest that and compound over 30 years plus even more if you can afford it. Your not paying any interest over the 30 years, so let's say 250k. You could invest all of that over the years and end up making gains meaning that when you stop renting you could by own a reasonable house for cash and only have to maintain it for the lady say 10-20 years of your life. In that time you could also have built up passive income and a pension instead of paying interest to a bank. What you don't get is that sense of it being your home and the security of not having to move if the landlord says so, which I think holds alot of weight. With buying there is also the chance that if you sit forong enough and then downsize or move to a cheaper location then maybe you make money at the very least own your home at the end meaning that you be able to pass it on as an asset. Problem is the cost of care. So many people reach 80 and need care that could cost alot and so often need to use their house as money for care. Which could be seen as a positive or negative. Let's also not forgery that single occupancy owning is increasingly hard, so factoring into that 50 percent of mareages fail, there is a strong chance you won't make it to 30 years as a couple and going to end up splitting any principlein a settlement and then attempting to start again. Each to their own. Personally I think I'll end up living in a van.

Mortgage loans are front loaded for interest payments, look at amortization tables for clarity. When the principal is paid off the interest and loan ends. Sooner you can pay it off the less interest you will pay.

This guy misses the point entirely of the advantages of extending mortgage payments out 15 to 30 years. Mainly, inflation will eat cost of money making it cheaper. Tax write off on mortgage interest paid. Equity is building. Reinvest extra cash into other investments (i.e. stocks, ira's, etc.). So he's not giving a complete picture....only a tiny one.

100%. This is a consumer psychology problem, not a mortgage math problem. This is exactly why car dealers ask you what you want your monthly payment to be, rather than how much you're willing to spend on the car. They can always extend the loan terms from 3 yrs to 6 years on a car loan, depending what you can afford per month, which means you can buy more and more expensive cars (even if you probably shouldn't), simply by extending the loan to lower the monthly payment. This also goes for student loans and one reason why the cost of education has skyrocketed.

The video makes a good point about not overleveraging yourself to buy a home but does not present all sides of home ownership such as the fact the government incentives home ownership by subsidizing (through tax deductions) the payment of interest... that's usually reduces your interest payment by around 20%. Inflation, especially as high as it is now, also erodes the true amount of the mortgage while generally increasing the value of the property. If you financed in 2020 you would be paying 2.5% in interest while seeing inflation of around double to triple that number and (at least in CA) experiencing double digit increases in home values.

Totally. In fact, it not all that bad if one has passive income. If one's passive income is $66k & tax, rent, loan, debt, bills, food, fun, etc. is $44k, then save/invest $22k to get more passive income (like a "smart" gov/bank) 😁
The alternative is to rent at stupid prices and thus the same action. Throwing away money. So what’s the alternative if you want to move out of your single mother home since 90% of them are now.

Well, owning my home means I change and redo whatever I want. I also don't have the constant looming possibility that my landlord is going to evict me for any reason, and I only have 30 days to pack up and find a new place. The peace of mind is worth it.
The only way I’ve increased my wealth is by buying houses staying in them for 2 1/2 years and selling them, making a profit on each one as I go. I’m now in my third home for the last five years. Sharing walls with inconsiderate idiots? Lining the pockets of landlords? No thanks.

When someone refers to "the American Dream", it's just a dream, a mirage. Smart investors say: when the crowd rushes in, it's time to get out.
They’ve done studies and shown you can make the same return on your money by simply renting and investing the extra money in the stock market.

The largest difference is the mortgage, you're paying yourself and the bank. If you rent and pay $2000/m, then the entire $2000 is gone. If you have a mortgage and pay $2000/m depending on the loan schedule, you should be paying $700 to yourself and $1300 to the bank, by year 30 it's $1950 to yourself and $50 to the bank. Lastly, your home is a hard asset that appreciates in value.

With the new 7.5% interest rates for a 300000 house you will pay over 400000 in interest. It's just ridiculous.
No matter what you do you have to pay to live somewhere. But if you rent it goes up and up and at times very rapidly. I have seen people paying $1,800 per month get raised $500 in an instant. 10 years from now its going to be closer to $3,000 than not. Once you purchases a home it will stay relatively the same. Sure at first it might be expensive in the beginning but you will never have your mortgage shoot up 30% instantly unless you get a terrible loan. And if you rent for 10, 20 or 30 years you get 0% return if you move. When you retire and live on a fixed income you want your home paid for or the payment very low. When my grandmother make her last payment it was something like $150 a month. If she hadn't bought it and rented it at that time it would have been closer to $1,000 per month. The real reason houses are so expensive is the extremely low interests rates of the last 20 years. This has allowed the price to shoot up and up because borrowing the money was cheap.
The real scame is in the property tax, insurance, HOA, & upkeep. Even when you find a way to pay your mortgage in full, you still need to battle to maintain it. The only way out of it is to get a remote role and finding a way to live in the cheapest area in the country.

It depends. Some people invest in stocks, business, and real estate while renting because they move around so much.

Ownership only works if you don't have the mortgage payment, for most homeowners that is NEVER going to happen as crazy as that sounds they will never pay off their loan due to constantly "upgrading" to new homes over the years. Your grandfather did it the right way.
A giant amount of money is shifted away from the family that the house is supposed to be helping. This makes marriages less satisfying, increases divorces rates and makes it so that children have to borrow college money instead of mom and dad being able to pay for college.
I wanted to get a 30 year mortgage, but they could only offer me 90K, and the average apartment now costs 150K. So no luck...
In Canada, even if you own your house outright, you dont. Not only do You pay property tax. But, the government controls what you do with your house. They have vacant home taxes, basically if you dont live in it, you have to rent it out, or pay a 2% tax on the assessed value. Now consider having renters. Landlords are so limited in how they can deal with delinquent tenants. Tenants have more rights than landlords. Landlord's pay all this money towards the house and land, meanwhile, they are unable to easily evict tenants who are trying to live rent free. Now consider, paying a mortgage, property tax, maintenance and upkeep.

Oh man, are you just a good little propaganda mill for the elites. Do they pay you or just pat you on the back? The vacant home tax is to prevent a false shortage of housing to inflate prices; that thing currently in America massively jacking up the prices. It's literally there to deter manipulation of the market for profit. The laws are lenient on the tenants because of the inherent power imbalance. They do not have more rights than landlords, the inherent position requires different regulations and limitations to provide something closer to equity. I take it you must be one of them landlords people since it is somehow impossible for you to misunderstand that. It's also weird that you think it's the landlord paying all that money and not the tenants. But whatever. You have to buy the land from the landlord (the thing you're trying to prop up as super good), the mortgage (the landlord funding the landlord's lordship), property tax is to pay for the society the landlord's land exists in, maintenance on a house is generally pretty cheap - and moreso if you just do it yourself. God damn, you either don't understand any part of the system and feel like you're a victim or you just want more stuff - everyone else be damned.

In today's financial landscape, the goal isn't just about rushing to pay off your mortgage ahead of schedule. It's more about ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable life during your prime years by preventing a substantial portion of your income from being tied up in mortgage payments. This approach allows you to maintain a fulfilling lifestyle during your most vibrant and healthy phase of life. By following this strategy, you set yourself up for a future where your property's value has appreciably increased over the course of 30 years. This provides you with the option to downsize when the time is right, ensuring that you can continue to enjoy your life in lasting comfort and financial security.
not to mention, there was tons of policy that was put in place to restrict the creation of more housing (zoning, lack of infrastructure development, low property taxes, reducing government building subsidies) which turned houses from more of a commodity, to something more like an investment where BOTH the land and the house were overvalued at the market rate.

In most of the markets right now, if you were to buy a house that is ready to move in, interest rates are at 7% for 15 year and 8% for 30 year fixed. Inflation is insane right now also so most homes are WAY over priced, like 30% over. This is a horrible time to buy a house to live in, even investment properties don't make since at these rates because rents are collapsing. Who tf can afford 2k or more a month rent that doesn't live in a city? ( that's $11/hour standard work week gone to rent out of your paycheck ). I mean, in some parts of the country, $20/ hour is a good wage, minus that $11/hour rent, my god you're going to be so poor. That's worse than house poor, that's rent poor, you get nothing for it, and so rents are collapsing right now because there are SO many Air BnB's screwing up the market.
