Title: Time To Move Into A House...Any Suggestions
Post by: Vince G, CSN MFT on June 28, 2015, 08:03:04 AM
So, I'm sitting here typing up some articles and drinking my Earl Grey Tea when I hear some woman next door screaming for help with the crashing of noise....once again.  I go outside to take a look and the cop cars come barreling in and broke down the door.


Since my rent is going to skyrocket to 900 a month, I'm going to go ahead and rent out a house until my place is complete.  Any ideas on what to look for??

In your case, the neighbors are the best thing to look at and consider.  You can inquire to how many police calls a neighborhood has received, along with crime rate, etc..

Seriously though, consider buying a place.  Mortgage is always cheaper than rent and you actually have something to show for the money you put in it.

Are you not aware he's on housing benefits? The man was boasting about buying his first flat screen TV two months ago. A 28'' obscure rand he got in walmart. Giving him advice on adult matters is akin to giving a downs syndrome child advice on advanced mathematics, there's no point

doesnt "rent out a house" means you will rent out a house to someone and not renting a house yourself

Here's a few ideas:

Stay out of nice white neighborhoods, your kind drives real estate prices down.

Get a fucking job you deadbeat, government handout leach.

If you can't swing a $900/month rent payment you aren't ready for a home mortgage and house upkeep.

Kill yourself dicktaster.

It all must be just an excuse to start a thread, NOBODY in Bumfuck, North Carolina pays $900 in rent... not in a small town/rural area.

Plus, it's always a good idea to come to a BB Gossip board to ask for real estate advices.

This is from a guy who couldn't get $2000 together to fix his mom's door after her imaginary break in for which he wanted to start a gofund account.

So.. you've red a thread that is mocking you like usualy and decided to "redeem" yourself (for 500th time) by hinting that you are paying "big" rent and building your own place?  ::)
 You're a fuckin' loon, noone believes shit you say here and you know it well. A sad black fat gay man with no job or a decent place to stay. That is the reality, and the sooner you'll get to grips with it, the more time will be left for you to try to live a somewhat satisfying life, instead of nonending fanthasies that you actually believe in.

Of course it didn't. Some time ago, when TBombz was mocked in a similar fashion, when he managed to find that black lady who was paying for everything - videos were uploaded asap to "prove everyone" that he's not a loser. Vince even could not "stage" that he's doing well, he is THAT broke, pretty ridiculous when you think about it.

That's all you do. Nothing you have ever said is true. You've been asked for documentation and claim you "simply can't be bothered" and it doesn't bother you if people don't believe you.  ::)

And why substitute Earl Grey tea with coffee? Do you think it makes you seem more distinguished?

Goodrum is distinguished and a sophisticated gentleman, so of course he prefers earl grey tea over coffee.

Same here, but more rural areas of the country, that's about what I would expect.

I rented a nice two bedroom place in Durham, NC for a year for work and it was about 975 I think?

Overpaying isn't something to be proud of. Not that I am saying you are, though, just that different areas of the country due to wages, etc. all factor in. Outing myself but I watch a lot of HGTV and (using california as an example) a million dollar house there would be about a $250,000 house where I live (give or take).

My rent is well below $900 and around here paying that price would be considered high. Also, I am in an area that is pretty constantly in the top 10-15 lists for best places to raise families, etc. by several national magazines, etc.

I hated being a home owner.

Fixing shit all of the time, buying washers and dryers when the shit breaks.

We had a massive storm come through, I think it was a hurricane, the back side of my house had a very VERY long span from one gutter to another and it couldn't dump water fast enough... Boom. The gutter falls off the back of the house.

Would cost almost as much as the insurance deductible.

Shit breaks in houses all of the time and I hate having to fix it.

Easier to just rent.

Renting might be easier, but it sure as heck isn't cheaper. Whether you know it or not, your still paying for washers, driers and gutters, etc.

Yeah, but I'm not doing repairs and shit.

And, if you get your typical 30 year mortgage, it's almost about even.

Look at how much you pay for a house... If it's 200K, you pay about 400K after interest if you have the typical 30yr. Mortgage.

I was drinking coffee but everything else is true.  Even the cops came by and had me write a statement about what I heard and witnessed.  I simply don't bullshit

But Melvin Goodrum, you bullshit about everything. From your fake degrees to your successful online businesses to your vast savings of cash, stocks, precious metals & jewels to, well, EVERYTHING.

What exactly have you told the 100% truth about?

Some cleansing articles for PLR sales.  I'm also using an article spinner on some older articles for my medical supply website.  Business as usual

Yeah, but I'm not doing repairs and shit.

And, if you get your typical 30 year mortgage, it's almost about even.

Look at how much you pay for a house... If it's 200K, you pay about 400K after interest if you have the typical 30yr. Mortgage.

Might not be cheaper... It's also not more expensive in the long run.

And the house you bought for $200,000 is probably worth somewhere around $800,000 after 30 years. Using your figure of $400,000 with interest, you would show a $400,000 profit after 30 years, not to forget that you'd actually have $800,000 in your pocket.

My figures are conservative. I bought my home for a little over $200,000 in 1998. Despite the economic downturn, it is worth at least $450, 000 today. As the economy continues to recover, this place will be worth a lot more then $800,000 in 30 years. My wife's parents bought a home in North Beverly Hills in the 1950's for $50,000. The last time that house sold in 2004, it sold for $11,000,000. Not a bad profit in about 50 years.

That's not true.

Minus a couple of areas, like beverly hills, it would be worth about 400,000

On average, in america, a house doubles in 30 years.

That's historical... You can look it up.

I don't live in Beverly Hills. In the example I gave using my current home, it has more than doubled in price in 17 years. The neighborhood where I live is fairly middle-class.

Using another personal example, the first house my wife and I bought, we purchased in the early 1970's for $13,000. We put around $10,000 into remodeling it. When we put it on the market about 12 years later, we sold it for $62,000. Today it is worth about the same as the home I presently live in and it is much smaller and very much older. It is also closer to the city center, which is where people want to live in Portland, OR.

The second house we bought, cost $72,000. We sold this house 15 years later for $175,000. Other than usual maintenance, the house required no remodeling to make it more saleable.

Both houses were well priced and sold within a few weeks of putting them up for sale.

Now take that $200,000 in interest and add in the tax deduction benefit. That's $200K you didn't pay close to 40% tax on. So with crude math, that is $80K back into your pocket right off the top.

Then I will chalk it up to dumb fucking luck.

If you do the math, that's all I'm talking about... In the USA, on AVERAGE, across the country, houses double in value every 30 years.

That's just what the math works out to.

If you made more, then that's great... I'm happy for you, but again, that's not the norm.

If you take odd times like the crazy housing market time from 2002-2007. That was abnormal, but the average, for over a century has been that house values double over 30 years.

That's just the numbers.

It's easy to look it up.

No doubt you are right about the average return on investment in real estate across the country. To be honest, I have very little experience with poor or negative housing markets, which certainly bring down the average. Some of my family still lives in Albion Michigan, which is too far from Detroit to commute. Like with Detroit though, the market value of these homes is pathetic. Some are actually priced at low double digit figures and still don't sell. One house I was considering buying there before the market crashed is currently priced at 1/3 of what it was when I first looked at it.

In most big cities....where jobs are plentiful and pay well, the housing market is very robust.

It can be... It's not like it was during its heyday... Areas around my parents are not even close to what they were... Prices are about where they were in 2000.

Before the crash we had our home appraised. It appraised at $550,000. Today it would sell for $425,000 - $450,000. Fortunately we bought it before the bubble and the crash and thus the current figure still would bring a healthy profit, should I sell it.

Certainly... Many people are under water... I am not, but that's just me, of course... I sold my house back in 2007 before the crash and made a decent sum off of it.

Now, I'll be ok renting... I prefer it as I move around from time to time.

Economist often advise that real estate is not the best investment in terms of returns. Tell this to "the Donald".

If you move a lot, renting is a good option. In order to turn much of a profit on a home, one should live there at least 5 years, barring real estate downturns, which could require one to hold onto the property longer.

You are absolutely wrong. I have loan officers in every state...   If your home only doubles in 30 years there is something very wrong.  I have built my business by knowing these things.

I never said Donald wasn't a real estate expert.

I am not wrong.

These are just numbers you can go look up.

I don't really care about your loan officers.

Just look at median housing prices from 1984 to 2004.

Those are in the trend of doubling. Slightly more at times, but the trend hold true.

Let's also not forget that 2004 was in the bubble and values have decreased slightly since then.
