    My youngest started his adult life living in one of those houses you talked about--6 bedrroms, all rented to separate people. There was way too much drama for him! He still has a roommate in his new place, but at least he only has to deal with one. And the cost per person is about the same.

      It's not always possible to get an apartment for someone who can't afford a deposit, first and last month's rent, a security deposit, or who doesn't have a good score. This is a good stepping stone for those who are on the brink of homelessness.

      let the industry burn.
      even if prices go up continually leave it alone instead build it buy land put a manufactured home on it NOT rent a lot never rent a lot or anything.

    A studio appt in a C class neighbourhood, runs for $1200 a month, and we'd have to add another $600 on top of that for utilities, wifi and laundry - even in HOU, TX.
    With these interest rates, the rental comps are 80% of the DSCR mortgage at an average. We need creative solutions for both side of the fence

    I don’t know why people single out Airbnb/STRs as the only source of a “bad tenant”. You can easily get stuck with a bad long term tenant and they have way more legal rights to stay in that property than a short term tenant. I think there just needs to be more of a vetting system in place for all tenants - and even landlords - because everyone should feel comfortable with the situation whether they are a renter or a landlord.

    Many low-income renters with very tight budgets are disabled - a micro-apartment is likely NOT going to be suitable for many reasons.
    For someone young, fit, and unattached, a 300sq foot crash pad might be great...
    but then, they probably have better opportunities to make additional money and can afford more than those truly in need of low-income housing.

    When I was in my early 20's I had the best studio apartment ever! It was an old building with tall ceilings, tall windows with a ton of light but just a tiny kitchen and a partial wall dividing the living room and sleeping area...which led to the bathroom with a wonderful clawfoot tub. The setting was fantastic...high on a hill over st. paul. Stepping out the door to see the Grand St. Paul cathedral across the street was breathtaking! Look to the right was the gold covered capital all while being on prestigious Summit avenue. I was able to walk to work, and pretty much anywhere downtown. I was young, going to school and loved it. 1/2 the neighbors were young, the other half were elderly, but I think everybody appreciated being there. It is a shame that society thinks everything has to be bigger and bigger. People have forgotten how to live and be happy, far below their means. That place was rather small...but it was light, bright and perfect for me at that time...and now over 30 years later I live far away but...I still have fond memories of that cute little apartment even though MN has gone to the dogs.
    I hope you are able to find a way to recreate this...but not like the tiny home phase that just gave a small box at the same price of a normal house.

      For most people there is not much benefit to putting a property in a trust. You will pay yearly for the trust to maintain it so it is an added cost. You do get the privicy since a trust is not public record so if thats the main reason then go for it. It bypasses probate which is nice i guess not something i would really care about. The "tax benefits" are basically it is not counted as part estate for estate taxes but you have to have over $13.6M estate if single or $27.2M estate if married to even incur estate tax. If it's an investment property then you can get charged the income at the beneficiary's tax rate. Other than that there isn't much benefit so if the yearly cost is worth it to you then do it.

    The solution to lower apartment and housing cost is for the city and state governments to lower property taxes and levies. Property taxes get higher the more apartments you cram on a property which is past on to the renter since the land lord has to pay higher property taxes now. Property taxes should be flat and not increase the nicer you make your yard or increase the more buildings or units you have on your property.

    It seems like there's a big trust issue for landlords and tenants. I get the premise of renting out individual rooms but I don't believe most people would be willing to risk the potential conflicts with that many roommates. I'd be willing to rent with one other stranger if interviewed them first and felt like they were trustworthy and there were noteworthy benefits but if it costs about the same to be in a cheap studio, that would be my person choice.

    IMO the issue is we don’t capitalize on the perks of density. More public transit, more multi purpose zoning like a business/apartments and so on. One of my favorite aspects to living over seas was not having to pay for insurance or worry about gas and so on. It was pennys to travel.

    I own a flat in London and the leasehold (contract) specifically states that I am not entitled to parking. It's different to housing in the US for sure, but I think due to the huge number of residents and density, they have had to do things like this -- not allow every resident access to parking. I believe I am able to purchase a parking spot from someone else separately if I wish, but I cannot get parking with ownership of my existing property, nor can I even get parking via the city council I live in, with ownership, which that itself is pretty interesting. I never had a car there and probably wouldn't as the property is in central London but I think for properties that are in city centres, they could easily do away with parking requirements, or drastically reduce parking spaces, and preferably increase green space, which is severely lacking in most cities anyway.

      Problem is often that cheap housing attracts people that made poor life decisions. Then you end up living closely with people doing drugs and not taking their trash out.

    A small studio apartment is next to impossible to find for less than $1000 in Canada. Unless you want to live far in the country side where there are next to no services or jobs. Or you want to live in a moldy dump.

    I have a few rental properties. Can you do a show talking about how to prevent squatters from invading properties that are in between tenants? I am especially worried about squatters who show up with a fake lease and claim that some person I don't know, other than me, the owner, signed the lease on my behalf and uses that lease to keep the sheriff from removing them as tresspassers. How do you protect yourself from a squatter showing up with a fake lease with a signature from an unknown person signing on your behalf?

    The government has no incentive to make housing cheaper because it taxes housing every year based on the property value with property taxes. Property taxes is huge barrier in creating affordable housing for the bottom 80% of the population.
