The latest "Landlord Special" in Seattle are new-build townhomes that are purchased and flipped as luxury rentals instantly, which you can spot because they don't even have blinds installed on the windows (which builders typically leave up to the buyer to choose).

Looking very swag !

And in another pair of photos they edited a tint onto a window to make it look like a blind?



I saw another one that said "relisted after adding window blinds" dragging their feet to do the minimum to unlock the Passive Income

looking down at the rippling viewing pool, Zxhrg sighed.
~“I know…” concurred the eminent representative from Kk’lmeb, as its free-floating tentacles glided in frustrated consolation.
“every developed species in the entire galaxy realizes the need to kill all landlords…!”
~“yes…”
“yet these feckless humans do nothing!” Zxhrg thumped his many appendages against the viewing receptacle.
the pool rippled.

i thought a friend of mine at amazon earned like 140k/year but turns out it's closer to 320k. he's a loving idiot with a serious drinking problem. hearing that number made me hyperventilate; 60k/year may as well be infinite money to me, that would triple my income. i'm going to die poor and i don't know what to do about it

“I am beginning to see a lot more reasonable offers being accepted at or below listing price. “

I'm also hearing that homes are selling without multiple offers and no more crazy bidding wars or selling 100k over ask.

I think part of this, though, is that the homes that are still on the market have various issues like "being surrounded by redwoods with a single evacuation road directly inside an area which recently suffered catastrophic wildfires as we enter forever-drought"

if you made $32,000/yr every year from 18 to 80 and never paid any tax or spent a single cent then at age 81 you could buy one of those 2 million dollar homes. because you would have just then made 2 million dollars

5 million could pay you $80k from 18 to 80

320k is an absolute shitload of money though, especially in the US where you pay like 15% tax or whatever it is

Just don't have friends IMO. The only personal contacts that have been to our house since we moved in a year ago are a couple of my running friends to get a quick drink of water, and my parents a couple of times.

Our realtor wants to meet us for dinner and see what we've done to the place and it's like lol why

Probably closer to $270k after the AMZN stock tanked. So he's basically poor now.

If I think I make more than my friend I pick up the check. they have to get sneaky to outmaneuver me

euphronius posted:

it becomes exponentially harder to make close friends once you’re out of school because bonding is primarily a function of in-person time spent together (for neurotypicals/non-socioaffective disorders). poo poo like zoom/facetime counts but is like 1/6 as impactful
