      No, I don't. The commodification of housing is the root of the shortage. A housing as a business should follow zoning laws; meaning, you can't own single family homes as a business, only multi-family. Otherwise, sprawl will continue to devastate our country. People are moving rural or in trailers, to avoid extreme housing prices.

      trailer the Parks give the lender a BS list of required repairs that need to be
      done for trailer to stay in Park. When the owner or Creditor question the
      list of repairs the Park simply tells the owner or Creditor that if they want the repair list to disappear all that is needed is for the owner or Creditor to do
      is just give the Park the mobile home for free!!

    @nancymcmonarch 17 дней назад +19

    Saw this kind of thing coming years ago, when house flipping became a thing. When I was a child, people bought homes to live in for years and raise their families. All of a sudden, in the 80s, everybody's home became an "investment" to be sold at a higher price a few years later. (So no nails in the walls, no neighborhood stability, and everything had to be beige.) The rampant flipping drove home prices up and further up, and now here we are with these ridiculous prices.

    • @L1623VP
      @L1623VP 15 дней назад +1

      So true about the house-flipping racket. It also astounds me how there is virtually no relationship between the market value of a home and its intrinsic value. If you add up all the costs of the materials in a home, even at today's prices, along with the physical land itself, the total comes nowhere near the "sale" price or market price of that same home. So much of the value is "perceived" value and not actual value.

      And that is the market in action. If you don't pay people enough to live nearby or to justify the travel, people *will* "vote" with their feet.
      Some people are more "sticky" than others due to a number of factors, but with internet people, *can* head out with less trouble than when company towns were more common. That doesn't mean that it's easy to do, especially if you've lived there all your life and all your family/friends are there.

      Perhaps, but I keep hearing how owning a home in Canada is virtually impossible now too, mostly due to foreign investment and Chinese firms buying up all the homes, creating an artificial demand increase and inflating prices, especially in Vancouver. I've heard you can drive down some streets and look directly into the front windows of the homes and straight out to the backyard because there is literally nothing inside them. The homes are all empty, paid for by foreign investors and just left to sit out of the market.

    A REIT is yet another financial instrument like a Derivative, Collateralized Debt Obligation (CDO), Collateralized Mortgage Obligation (CMO) etc. its a method of bundling together 1000s of things like houses, mortgages, car loans or whatever and making money off those entities. They can also sell stock in those bundles and pay dividends from those profits. Its profits from those 1000's of entities that allow them to corner markets and set prices. That's how they wind up in the portfolios of 401k's and retirement plans. Its making money by moving money around which a society does when they don't produce much of real value.

Now if you have all the equipment, can self finance, have a business to get distributor prices, have the skills to do all the work throughout the entire construction process, and can afford to take months off of work to build your own home then you might save some money.
      You certainly aren't going to save a nearly as much money as most people think they might by doing so [building yourself]. The notion that just because you saved a bunch of money building your own home means that you will save money on tax assessments is laughable. I don't mean to insult you with that comment, it is the prevalent idea that price=assessment value from those that don't know what they don't know that I find laughable.
      If you ask me this is nothing more than the intentional destruction of private ownership. I've also noticed another trend but am generally hesitant to get into it because it is pretty complex.
