Problem is most of people who can afford that are in tech. The rest of the workers had to move outside the city and commute. Even Uber and Lyft drivers don't live in SF. Notice that people were leaving roommates in lurch. Because 1 bedrooms and studios still have roommates. If people rent a house, every room (except kitchen & bathroom) are used as bedrooms. Now that there's COVID and tech is allowing people to work from home, the tech people are moving to cheaper states. Hopefully, tech will stay gone, and SF will have rents that are more reasonable for people who work in SF. Teachers, police, nurses, etc commute to work in SF for higher salaries. There was previously renter control, but it was weakened so that landlords could move in relative to break the lease and then raise rent. Which is how rent got to $4k for a one bedroom. Remember there was the real estate bust, but no one decreased the rents when that happened. Thus, when everything recovered, they kept increasing rents, even though they never reduced rents.
100k after taxs is like 75 then rent 4000 × 12 months equals 48000, after that u got 27000 after car payment and insurence and food and utilities what are you left with, thats for a single person making 100 k. Imagine making 50k.
Funny, SF is one of the most heartless city of landlords, and now they're scared. For years they walk all over the working poor, now they are about to feel the pain. now they are feeling this thing, but they didn't care much when others were suffering. Now it looks like they will feel what it's like to have things go bad, and no one to bail them out. Too bad for them, maybe they will learn some humanity. And in the future try to apply it towards their fellow man. Like many of those they felt superior to, they will have to hustle for a living! its a bit humbling but humble is not bad.
People never care till they have to wear the shoes of those they judged. Record americans getting passports and leaving the country but for years would look down on and condemn people coming to this country for more opportunity. Now that its them they wanna flee but when it was someone else they were cold and heartless. It just tells you alot about people.
Always reach people never ever appreciate what they have until they loose what they have in their hands. When they robe low income people and make them guilty they don't care because one move out 100 come in to rent. Now everyone is almost equal.

Votes matter and it works for a short time when liberal socialists are in control but eventually you destroy the source fo the wealth and once its gone, everyone suffers. Same thing has happened in Venezuela with people now digging in garbage cans to live that used to have middle class lives and jobs. But no more when socialist liberals have absolute control.
Bill Meeker you couldn’t be more wrong. Venezuela’s situation is a result of many factors. The main one being the nationalization of oil companies and crony capitalism and corruption. The sanctions being levied on Venezuela is also crippling the economy and driving inflation sky high. This is by design of the unites states and other countries who want a regime change in caracas.

They can’t charge more than it’s worth, rents are a function of location, property taxes, local school systems, local government,supply and demand and local real estate market . Don’t want to pay high rent just buy the building yourself and rent the rest of the units out.... as a landlord I’m so tired of ppl complaining about high rents, meanwhile property taxes have went from 4000- to 11000 a year in 20 years and I’ve only raised the rent from. 1200-1700 a month. School taxes are increasing at an unsustainable rate, Property taxes here have almost tripled and I make less now than when I got 1200 a month and I have hundreds of thousands of money plus a mortgage tied up in the rental. It’s going to get worse before it gets better,until ppl wake up and realize there’s no free lunch, and until property taxes are brought under control, rents will remain high.
@@JohnDiMartino As things stand now, I wouldn't look for property taxes to decrease as states, particularly the so-called "blue states," find themselves trying to maintain state budgets with more people clamoring for socialist & welfare states especially with the economic impacts created by China's virus pandemic.
The landlords don't just choose their rent price. It is determined by the market, mostly by what renters are willing to pay. Most people living there are young people supported by wealthy parents, so when things went south there they likely just broke their leases and moved back with their parents.

If you have savings left, you would be better to review your lease, and negotiate at least paying some of your move out amount, and get all the landlords information if they plan to put a bad mark on your rental history that will need to be paid later, BUT, you can at least then move and rent these days is basically the same rate for 30 days at the Home2 Suites, then pay no residency taxes, and boom -- eventually you pay off the remaining balance, and then you get yourself into a new place somewhere else.

the way the landlords jacked up the rent for those tech bros was greedy and essentially ruined the city .... i hope they suffer .... sf always had expensive rents but also a lot of places for young artists to live , too .... i’m glad the landlords are going to suffer ...
it's not really the landlord's fault that san francisco has ridiculous zoning restrictions that the supply of available rental properties is so low. nor is it to do with 'tech bros', b/c they're just going where the tech jobs are. if tech decided to put a headquarters in san francisco, of course that's where tech people are going to move to. the market always wins, one way or the other. if the supply is low and demand is high, the only way to balance supply and demand is to raise the rents. if san francisco genuinely wants to fix the problem of rents being too high, they can remove all zoning and building restrictions that have to do with heights of buildings and time it takes to process building new units. otherwise they're not really serious about solving this issue. but then again, property owners voted for this because they have a financial interest in keeping supply of housing low, to keep the value of their house going up.

I mean, me and my room mates pay $1,800 here in LA, it's split 3 ways and it's pretty easy to afford for me, considering the fact that I make the $15 minimum wage full time, after utilities we all pay $700/mo each. But my brother who lives in San Francisco, pays $4,500 for his studio with his wife, and they make a 6 figure income and can't afford to stay there. Like Democrats aren't that much different from Republicans, because they don't care what the capitalist landlords charge in San Francisco, and they pass Rent Control way too late for it to even matter, but LA passed rent control right as the rents were starting to rise rapidly. Our landlord told us rent is going up no more than 4% next year, thats much more predictable for us than freaking San Francisco.
@@nunyadambusiness3530 its pretty simple logic. don't live where u can't afford to live & don't be silly enough to go where u can't afford to live. LA is less leftist than SF, hands down. Most of SoCal is governed better than NorCal. better roads, safer areas, etc. There are conservative leaders in many districts down there and their districts seem to do well so there is an overall balance. Maxine Waters for instance, runs a wonderful district kek. ok maybe not. she even knws b/c she doesn't live in it. LA has more affordable places available because its a large city with districts that are like towns. SF is a small town. U can walk more that 3 districts in a day. it is small af. so simple econ 101. Low Supply = High demand = Higher costs. SF is too small to sustain on the buffoons who hav come piling to its front door. Ur brother gets slapped with the high rent for several reasons. Democrats believe in high property taxes, especially in SF. so high that the rent needs to get jacked up in order to sustain the tax for the landlords. these high taxes go to a ton of stupid things including a homeless fund worth millions. most of the fund is spent on the city employees & admins who coordinate the fund and so the actual homeless folks only see around $30k at the end of each year. That includes the drugs & alcohol given to the bums to further advance their habits. another reason costs are so high in SF is in order to ward away section 8 folks with housing vouchers. they are a land lord's nightmare and can turn ur home or building into the projects. and since SF makes it hard to evict people, regardless of how awful they are, its easier getting a divorce. so the land lords jack up the prices so much that the vouchers cannot cover much of it, rendering it un-affordable, even for regular people. in SF u are not allowed to decline section 8 people now as a landlord either. so most landlords are going to bid high than before. the Coivd changed some stuff however, not really. Ur brother is better off finding a place in Daly City (located south of SF & next to it) or in the districts like the outer Sunset or richmond. I knw people in SF that live on 5 figure salaries, renting. They hav roommates so its possible to live in SF on 6 figures too. just gotta knw where to look and live. also knw to hav roommates.
Pretty much, the land lords have been able to take advantage of the high demand for a awhile but now the shoe is on the other foot. The city has become less safe and functions at a lower capacity why am I paying 1500+ for rent still?

Rent control implemented by the politicians is a major cause of the sky rocket rents. The politicians will do what ever necessary to get re-elected. In Los Angeles when they implemented rent control the number of new homes and apartments dropped and that money went to the suburbs. Nearly all of those politicians who voted in rent control are long gone dead and those who rent are paying the bill. BTW, I am landlord and have owned properties years before prices really rose.

Obviously you are too stupid to understand how mortgages work. The landlord's mortgage is higher in SF also. This is why you will never be a homeowner. Landlords with a full mortgage on a property do not get to charge double or more the mortgage in any market, the economy just doesn't support it. Thus they end up with a ridiculously high mortgage payment and the losers that rent then have to pay higher rent or nobody gets to live there.

part of the problem is that the banks have not decreased the monthly mortgage that the landlords owe. And then shareholders demand that banks pull a profit every quarter and stock prices go up. It's a vicious cycle.
Anyone is insane to live in SF. I knew that in the 90’s when I travelled there for work and my coworker said, “pick up one of those free real estate and rental books”. I did and I found dump junk one room apartments for sale for 1.2 million. I laughed and said, “I can buy a 7500 sq ft mansion in Atlanta for that much. (And a Lamborghini). These people are crazy”. Furthermore, I’m an engineer, and if I moved to SF from my southern home, my pay would be maybe 10% more. In can’t see the value in living there.Been there several times and I don’t see the value these people ascribe to the place. Terribly controlling, high tax, high rent, terrible politics, people urinating and dumping on sidewalks. People with needles hanging out of their arms, and all I’d be able to afford there as an engineer with 25 years experience, Master’s degree, almost finished with a Ph.D., would be a total dump in a horrible neighborhood. I have no idea how people survive there. No wonder so many are homeless. It’s a stinking travesty what politics and corruption has done there. I think I’ll stay in the southeast and if I want to live in an ocean town I can own a condo on the white sands of the Gulf of Mexico in Alabama or Florida for 1/3 of $1.2 mil.

Rent control is focing landlords to exist renting out their properties and encourages below market renters to stay. Rent control is pushing rent prices up.
I was reading an article several days ago, written by Martin Luther King. He was giving lifestyle advice that was typical back in the 1960s. He said a house should cost no more than 2 to 3X of your annual income. But today, where can you buy a house like that, except maybe in rural regional areas? Certainly not in the suburbs of a major city.
They tried that in the early 2000's. Just about anyone who applied got a mortgage loan. But people got incredibly greedy and stupid. They bought home waaaaay beyond their means without thinking about how they would pay for it. The bubble burst and people had home they purchased and had no way of paying it off. Some people weren't meant for nice things.
Rent in certain area is higher than a mortgage in others. 4k a month rent you can buy a $250k or less and only need to pay under 1.5k a month on mortgage( that’s more than 50% less).

Its not greedy Landlords. Its greedy politicians that force EVERYONE to pay high taxes and fees to the state. Most Landlords are just trying to get by too...
It's easy to blame greed. It would take actual effort to look into what your lanlord is paying for his mortgage, taxes, fees, etc. to get an actual idea of what kind of money he is making.

Conversely, it's not really the government's fault that a bunch of yuppies wanted to flood New York and San Francisco and thus raised the cost of living through the roof as people chased the 'hip' places to be.
@@BeyondTheAverageFilm Their needle exchange exacerbated the issue of disease and addiction. In 2017, San Francisco distributed 5.3 million needles and over 2 million were uncollected. The following year, San Francisco distributed another 5.8 million needles, and another 2 million went uncollected. Where do these needles end up? On your sidewalks, on your streets, in your public parks, near your schools, on public transportation, i.e. places where non-homeless / non-addicts are now exposed to disease they never would have encountered in their civilian lives. We also know from the Santa Ana river bed homeless encampment (also in California) that many homeless were/are there voluntarily: approximately 36% of the homeless entirely refused ANY assistance while another 15% just left before even being assessed by social workers. I don't pretend to have all the solutions, but you help those who want to be helped, and you cut-off or commit those who will not.
Not really real estate prices are sky high too. A lot of them need to charge like that to cover the mortgage and taxes. Only landlords who have paid off the mortgage can do any serious negotiation.
The weather and bleeding heart liberals have a lot to do with that high concentration of the homeless. Most people abandon ship and leave when they see the writting on the wall. The junkies and bums get bused into that area by other cities even states!
The culture of not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings by policing quality of life issues like public nuisance crimes, lax attitudes towards drug and alcohol addiction, and a city government that is well known for bending over backwards to provide social services to addicts. There are also studies that show for every 100 dollar increase in rent there is a corresponding increase in homelessness. Most of the homeless in CA are native to CA, only something like 10 percent or so are from out of state. And most come from their own locality.

tehbonehead I don't feel bad for the tax payers. They have to pay their fair share. THEY need to pay more than their fair share. Too bad what I just posted went right over your little Marxist head.

@@Jeff-fx5uz I would think that the lease went up every year. I'm sure the rent didnt start off at $4,000. But in a nice area that's probably the starting lease. Heck I'd rather buy a house and pay less in a totally different area or state.
I got out of my apartment as soon as possible when the pandemic started because i lost my job and the building next door caught on fire. It was a sign for everybody in that building to get out. Everybody is going back home and I went back home as well. Nobody wants to be alone surviving this pandemic.

He chose to pay $4k a month just to live in SF. Which isn’t all that. He could have lived in the East Bay. But he wanted the SF address to impress his friends.
When your apartment rent is higher then a mortgage payment on a house. It’s time to move out that apartment and get a house. 4K for a apartment is just crazy. That a payment on a house that’s valued around 700k to 800k.
But there's some nuance we might be missing here. He may have had multiple roommates helping him to pay that 4k. He could've been doing Airbnb in one of the units.. I had a $2k apt and split it 3 ways, which is obvs way more manageable.
California the golden state or as Id like to say the fools gold state. I lived in SF for a couple of years and I finally left the state and not looking back. It is truly a place on for the super rich. Everyone else is pretty much poor. The only ppl moving into the city was young naive college grads but they are finally opening their eyes to the sobering reality that it’s a race to the bottom. Good luck for those still left.

@@Kal-EL_Volta Yup. That's about Right 😂
Wtf does this city expect when 100K in SF is considered “low income”??
Problem is most of people who can afford that are in tech. The rest of the workers had to move outside the city and commute. Even Uber and Lyft drivers don't live in SF. Notice that people were leaving roommates in lurch. Because 1 bedrooms and studios still have roommates. If people rent a house, every room (except kitchen & bathroom) are used as bedrooms.
Now that there's COVID and tech is allowing people to work from home, the tech people are moving to cheaper states. Hopefully, tech will stay gone, and SF will have rents that are more reasonable for people who work in SF. Teachers, police, nurses, etc commute to work in SF for higher salaries. There was previously renter control, but it was weakened so that landlords could move in relative to break the lease and then raise rent. Which is how rent got to $4k for a one bedroom. Remember there was the real estate bust, but no one decreased the rents when that happened. Thus, when everything recovered, they kept increasing rents, even though they never reduced rents.
Actually 100k in SF is considered poverty level!
Crazy high rents unsustainable. Corona and high rent collapse the economy 3 months. Wow.
No wonder why some homeless give up all hope. They would have to work 3 jobs just to reach that 100k minimum living wage.
100k after taxs is like 75 then rent 4000 × 12 months equals 48000, after that u got 27000 after car payment and insurence and food and utilities what are you left with, thats for a single person making 100 k. Imagine making 50k.
Funny, SF is one of the most heartless city of landlords, and now they're scared. For years they walk all over the working poor, now they are about to feel the pain. now they are feeling this thing, but they didn't care much when others were suffering. Now it looks like they will feel what it's like to have things go bad, and no one to bail them out. Too bad for them, maybe they will learn some humanity. And in the future try to apply it towards their fellow man. Like many of those they felt superior to, they will have to hustle for a living! its a bit humbling but humble is not bad.
People never care till they have to wear the shoes of those they judged. Record americans getting passports and leaving the country but for years would look down on and condemn people coming to this country for more opportunity. Now that its them they wanna flee but when it was someone else they were cold and heartless. It just tells you alot about people.
They just laugh actually
Michael Brown no effect.
Can still charge and make a hefty profit.
Always reach people never ever appreciate what they have until they loose what they have in their hands. When they robe low income people and make them guilty they don't care because one move out 100 come in to rent. Now everyone is almost equal.
Better ask Nancy Pelosi and Kamala Harris, they are in charge.

Also landlords: Why are all my tenants leaving during a pandemic?
That's not how it works.
They can’t charge more than it’s worth, rents are a function of location, property taxes, local school systems, local government,supply and demand and local real estate market . Don’t want to pay high rent just buy the building yourself and rent the rest of the units out.... as a landlord I’m so tired of ppl complaining about high rents, meanwhile property taxes have went from 4000- to 11000 a year in 20 years and I’ve only raised the rent from. 1200-1700 a month. School taxes are increasing at an unsustainable rate, Property taxes here have almost tripled and I make less now than when I got 1200 a month and I have hundreds of thousands of money plus a mortgage tied up in the rental. It’s going to get worse before it gets better,until ppl wake up and realize there’s no free lunch, and until property taxes are brought under control, rents will remain high.

The landlords don't just choose their rent price. It is determined by the market, mostly by what renters are willing to pay. Most people living there are young people supported by wealthy parents, so when things went south there they likely just broke their leases and moved back with their parents.

@@scottwasson you must be a tech bro
all those poor SLUMLORDS getting shafted for the rent. I'm really crying for them right now /sarcasm.
it's not really the landlord's fault that san francisco has ridiculous zoning restrictions that the supply of available rental properties is so low. nor is it to do with 'tech bros', b/c they're just going where the tech jobs are. if tech decided to put a headquarters in san francisco, of course that's where tech people are going to move to. the market always wins, one way or the other. if the supply is low and demand is high, the only way to balance supply and demand is to raise the rents. if san francisco genuinely wants to fix the problem of rents being too high, they can remove all zoning and building restrictions that have to do with heights of buildings and time it takes to process building new units. otherwise they're not really serious about solving this issue. but then again, property owners voted for this because they have a financial interest in keeping supply of housing low, to keep the value of their house going up.

But my brother who lives in San Francisco, pays $4,500 for his studio with his wife, and they make a 6 figure income and can't afford to stay there. Like Democrats aren't that much different from Republicans, because they don't care what the capitalist landlords charge in San Francisco, and they pass Rent Control way too late for it to even matter, but LA passed rent control right as the rents were starting to rise rapidly. Our landlord told us rent is going up no more than 4% next year, thats much more predictable for us than freaking San Francisco.
Dem/Prog/Bolsheviki policies have consequences...
@@nunyadambusiness3530 its pretty simple logic. don't live where u can't afford to live & don't be silly enough to go where u can't afford to live. LA is less leftist than SF, hands down. Most of SoCal is governed better than NorCal. better roads, safer areas, etc. There are conservative leaders in many districts down there and their districts seem to do well so there is an overall balance. Maxine Waters for instance, runs a wonderful district kek. ok maybe not. she even knws b/c she doesn't live in it.
LA has more affordable places available because its a large city with districts that are like towns. SF is a small town. U can walk more that 3 districts in a day. it is small af. so simple econ 101. Low Supply = High demand = Higher costs. SF is too small to sustain on the buffoons who hav come piling to its front door.
Ur brother gets slapped with the high rent for several reasons. Democrats believe in high property taxes, especially in SF. so high that the rent needs to get jacked up in order to sustain the tax for the landlords. these high taxes go to a ton of stupid things including a homeless fund worth millions. most of the fund is spent on the city employees & admins who coordinate the fund and so the actual homeless folks only see around $30k at the end of each year. That includes the drugs & alcohol given to the bums to further advance their habits.
another reason costs are so high in SF is in order to ward away section 8 folks with housing vouchers. they are a land lord's nightmare and can turn ur home or building into the projects. and since SF makes it hard to evict people, regardless of how awful they are, its easier getting a divorce. so the land lords jack up the prices so much that the vouchers cannot cover much of it, rendering it un-affordable, even for regular people. in SF u are not allowed to decline section 8 people now as a landlord either. so most landlords are going to bid high than before.
the Coivd changed some stuff however, not really. Ur brother is better off finding a place in Daly City (located south of SF & next to it) or in the districts like the outer Sunset or richmond. I knw people in SF that live on 5 figure salaries, renting. They hav roommates so its possible to live in SF on 6 figures too. just gotta knw where to look and live. also knw to hav roommates.
If tenants are breaking their leases, that tells me the landlords refused to negotiate.

You understand that landlords have mortgages...and maintenance bills....and insurance....you understand this is how things in real life work...right?
@Ray SosaSupply will always follow demand so who exact are you blaming again?
Is it the regular poor folk who are willing to pay $4000/mo or the landlords willing to except it???
Living beyond one's means will never be an excuse for NOT being able to save money for the American dream regardless of ability or willingness.

@@akdreaming you can't pay your mortgage if your charging people rent like 4 K a month and then complain about it.
Also, keep in mind that your in the middle of a pandemic which is making it hard. Luckily, a good portion of these people might be able to work from home, "IF", renter's employers would acknowledge that we are still in a pandemic and to exercise consistent measures for workers to be able to social distance in a safe manner.
I don't know how you pay your mortgage, but working class people like me need to be able to work first, if our employer will let us, so we can earn pay in order to pay the landlords rent.
See how that works?
An apartment building will never get $4k out of me. Ever. Tf !
Meanwhile I'm here in the midwest paying $650 for a 3bd apartment with washer/dryer in unit and a fireplace. These numbers are insane to me.

That's how it was here in SF in the 80s. Then the dot com boom came and that was the first time rents went up. The second time was the tech boom after 2009. We got caught twice by a wild economy.

Obviously you are too stupid to understand how mortgages work. The landlord's mortgage is higher in SF also. This is why you will never be a homeowner. Landlords with a full mortgage on a property do not get to charge double or more the mortgage in any market, the economy just doesn't support it. Thus they end up with a ridiculously high mortgage payment and the losers that rent then have to pay higher rent or nobody gets to live there.
I miss my family there and wanna be back, in Philly now and omg $375 is my rent and if I were to move back it'd be like $1500 for me in LA by myself.
@La Maci That's gotta be one of the stupidest insults I've ever heard. Your brain is sure empty with all that cat hair floating around in there. This is why you will never own a house, overwhelming stupidity. This is something most renters have in common.
I am in London, room with my roomies 500, no problem with anything, u want to talk u go to living room, u want privacy u go to your room - we build our own gym, making good money and saving a lot.

You realize that the renters are what set the price right and not tge landlords? If all of these idiots werent forking over 4k and say only 2k the landlords have no choice but to lower their rent if theu want tenants.. Simple economics really...

The rents have gone up by 40% in the past 5 years. Why can’t they go down by 40% during a pandemic and Great Depression?
Yeah, I'm wondering when the economy is going to start showing for the current events
Exactlyyyyyy! Cuz there are are greedy and disgusting people at the helm of this nonstop inflation boom...
part of the problem is that the banks have not decreased the monthly mortgage that the landlords owe. And then shareholders demand that banks pull a profit every quarter and stock prices go up. It's a vicious cycle.
But they do. Its just the beginning of the country-wide domino effect. Whatever goes up must come down.
Anyone is insane to live in SF. I knew that in the 90’s when I travelled there for work and my coworker said, “pick up one of those free real estate and rental books”. I did and I found dump junk one room apartments for sale for 1.2 million. I laughed and said, “I can buy a 7500 sq ft mansion in Atlanta for that much. (And a Lamborghini). These people are crazy”. Furthermore, I’m an engineer, and if I moved to SF from my southern home, my pay would be maybe 10% more. In can’t see the value in living there.Been there several times and I don’t see the value these people ascribe to the place. Terribly controlling, high tax, high rent, terrible politics, people urinating and dumping on sidewalks. People with needles hanging out of their arms, and all I’d be able to afford there as an engineer with 25 years experience, Master’s degree, almost finished with a Ph.D., would be a total dump in a horrible neighborhood. I have no idea how people survive there. No wonder so many are homeless. It’s a stinking travesty what politics and corruption has done there. I think I’ll stay in the southeast and if I want to live in an ocean town I can own a condo on the white sands of the Gulf of Mexico in Alabama or Florida for 1/3 of $1.2 mil. I feel sorry for anyone that’s not in the 1% living there, or even the 10% as engineers are. And you’re welcome for all the iPhones, gadgets, cars, bridges, roads, power systems, and the internet. Apple and Google didn’t invent it. Engineers did. So screw those tyrants.

Who in their right mind would pay $4000 a month for an apartment in a city like San Francisco, somewhere the streets are paved with 💩💩💩?
Ann G. Because only idiots like you who don’t live here think the streets are actually paved with shit. San Francisco has a lot of nice neighborhoods. It’s not all what you see on media.
$1450-1750 is still insane for a 1 bedroom apartment. In some areas such as in Pittsburgh with it's large medical industry, $1750 would rent an entire remodeled floor of a house in an upscale neighborhood.
I was in the city two weekends ago and did not see any shit. City is cleaner than ever.
SF is literally a shithole. Only people who move there from shitter places think it's clean.

I feel like rents all over the country need to go down by 50% if not more and the ability to purchase a home needs to be made a lot easier.
I was reading an article several days ago, written by Martin Luther King. He was giving lifestyle advice that was typical back in the 1960s. He said a house should cost no more than 2 to 3X of your annual income. But today, where can you buy a house like that, except maybe in rural regional areas? Certainly not in the suburbs of a major city.
They tried that in the early 2000's. Just about anyone who applied got a mortgage loan. But people got incredibly greedy and stupid. They bought home waaaaay beyond their means without thinking about how they would pay for it. The bubble burst and people had home they purchased and had no way of paying it off.
Some people weren't meant for nice things.
Making it easier to buy a home is exactly what caused the housing crash in 2008 though.
Supply and demand. We shall see what happens
Rent in certain area is higher than a mortgage in others. 4k a month rent you can buy a $250k or less and only need to pay under 1.5k a month on mortgage( that’s more than 50% less).
My friend lives there. She pays $3,000 a month in a "good" neighborhood and says there is human poop and used needles out on the sidewalks sometimes. $4,000 a month for rent??NEVER!
Is she a Democrat?
Free poop and needles? That seems like a pretty good deal.
I keep hearing this from right wingers who have NO friends in San Francisco and just repeat this drivel. I have never seen poop or needles. So give me a specific address where your friend lives so I can go check it out. Is he/she in the worst neighborhood in the Tenderloin?

The city also likely has really high property taxes which leads to rise in rent

Its not greedy Landlords. Its greedy politicians that force EVERYONE to pay high taxes and fees to the state. Most Landlords are just trying to get by too...
It's easy to blame greed. It would take actual effort to look into what your lanlord is paying for his mortgage, taxes, fees, etc. to get an actual idea of what kind of money he is making.

@@BeyondTheAverageFilm Meanwhile in reality land people with sense will just up and leave. California is run by nutcases so it's no surprise they live like a failed state in the making. It's not really people's responsibility to do the government's job for it by actually enforcing law and order and not just letting junkies overtake the streets. Conversely, it's not really the government's fault that a bunch of yuppies wanted to flood New York and San Francisco and thus raised the cost of living through the roof as people chased the 'hip' places to be.
@@BeyondTheAverageFilm Their needle exchange exacerbated the issue of disease and addiction. In 2017, San Francisco distributed 5.3 million needles and over 2 million were uncollected. The following year, San Francisco distributed another 5.8 million needles, and another 2 million went uncollected. Where do these needles end up? On your sidewalks, on your streets, in your public parks, near your schools, on public transportation, i.e. places where non-homeless / non-addicts are now exposed to disease they never would have encountered in their civilian lives. We also know from the Santa Ana river bed homeless encampment (also in California) that many homeless were/are there voluntarily: approximately 36% of the homeless entirely refused ANY assistance while another 15% just left before even being assessed by social workers. I don't pretend to have all the solutions, but you help those who want to be helped, and you cut-off or commit those who will not.
watch it. They may be leaving San Fran, but their Ideals stay with them.
Good. The markup for rent in SF is beyond disgusting. One of the highest homeless populations in the country for a reason
Not really real estate prices are sky high too. A lot of them need to charge like that to cover the mortgage and taxes. Only landlords who have paid off the mortgage can do any serious negotiation.
The weather and bleeding heart liberals have a lot to do with that high concentration of the homeless. Most people abandon ship and leave when they see the writting on the wall. The junkies and bums get bused into that area by other cities even states!
The culture of not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings by policing quality of life issues like public nuisance crimes, lax attitudes towards drug and alcohol addiction, and a city government that is well known for bending over backwards to provide social services to addicts. There are also studies that show for every 100 dollar increase in rent there is a corresponding increase in homelessness. Most of the homeless in CA are native to CA, only something like 10 percent or so are from out of state. And most come from their own locality.

When your apartment rent is higher then a mortgage payment on a house. It’s time to move out that apartment and get a house. 4K for a apartment is just crazy. That a payment on a house that’s valued around 700k to 800k.
...then years later when you are locked in, that housing bubble inevitably pops and housing prices crash
If only it was that easy i mean if rent is that high im sure mortgage is about 2 to 3x higher at least
But there's some nuance we might be missing here. He may have had multiple roommates helping him to pay that 4k. He could've been doing Airbnb in one of the units.. I had a $2k apt and split it 3 ways, which is obvs way more manageable.
