actionjackson posted:I'm in Minneapolis, and yeah I think it helped a bit, but new developments still tend to be incredibly expensive We need so soviet style worker owned housing. The only incentive to make "affordable housing" is LIHTC (low income housing tax credits). Of course only the minimum is ever done to qualify for the tax credit. Something like 20% of units with 50% median income for the area. This does not come no close to providing enough affordable housing. Actually, since developing apartments is 90% finance, it's not that different from people buying a single family home with only 10% down payment. I've heard a bit of housing cooperatives, but not so much in the US. It would be pretty cool if Americans had any sense of solidarity to finance apartments together instead of single family homes.

Salt Fish posted:Tossing out 3k a month as some insane luxury rent that is totally optional tells me you don't live and work in a high cost of living city. That'll get you a pretty middling to crummy 2 bed 1 bath in DC or New York. A lot of my former coworkers were commuting 45-60m to get their rents down to 2500/mo. You can pay less than $1k a month in DC if you're willing to live in SE on the other side of the river. 1 bed, 1 bath, kitchen (tiny but livable), and a living room. You hear gunshots every other week, they're not directed at you.

$200,000. It last sold for $150k in 2014, so not that bad. I guess nobody wants to live in East Bumfuck Kansas.

if i had my inflation adjusted salary in '94, i would literally have been able to buy my childhood home in three years, while paying for all current expenses during those three years, in cash. lmfao.

my childhood home only increased 2.75x in value but that’s probably because there was a meth epidemic followed by a heroin epidemic in that neighborhood that claimed the lives of 15~20% of the people I went to elementary school with also they put lovely vinyl siding over the beautiful red brick. it’s so loving ugly now

H.P. Hovercraft posted:it's because $150k doesn't go as far as you'd think when you're paying rent in an area near your $150k job Old post but I make slightly less than that and after taxes, retirement, health insurance etc it gives me about 78,000 a year net. Rent and other housing costs is another $20K at least after that. Fortunately I don't have a car payment or any other debt. I've got it better than most and it's gonna be awfully hard to save enough for a solid down payment in the age of relatively high interest rates when a decent house in a decent neighborhood is like $750K. Amusingly I sold my house that I'd bought in 2014 (for $240,000) at the end of 2019 because I didn't think I'd move back to the state, then moved back in 2021 and was promptly priced out of everything. My options are basically to spend 50% of my take home pay on a mortgage and hope nothing big breaks, get married to someone who makes money, or just keep renting when it's certainly going up. I live in the South too.

Hmm, lemme look at some of them: 1. Beautiful downtown house that grandparents bought my parents for 40k in the 80s before the divorce in a nice place in Idaho : 900k 2. Massive house in the middle of bum-gently caress nowhere wyoming that mom bought for 30k in the 90s post divorce? 216k now 3. lovely broken house that dad bought post divorce for 180k and couldn't afford and then lost in the housing crash (selling for 400k)? 1.2m+ lol

lol this is some weak rear end poo poo. My neighbour bought his place in 1980 for 30k and was quoted at 1.7 mil in feb this year. my landlord is in basically the same boat, he bought a year earlier at 23k. you could put quite a nice three story walkup on this block with a communal garden space, but this place is 100% going to some developer that's going to cram 6 townhouses on it and pave every inch of exposed earth Buck Turgidson has issued a correction as of 03:00 on May 16, 2022 |

I was thinking today about "starter homes" and how bullshit that concept is lol ah yes I will buy a house when I'm young (too late!) that is solely a stepping stone to a series of bigger and more expensive homes when I eventually buy a house at 40-something I will stay there forever, bitch

Sold for 93k in 1997, because the folks couldn't afford it anymore and we had to move into an apartment. Currently 1.1 million. No improvements, as far as I can tell from the listing. Same shade of paint and all. What the gently caress is your problem, northern Colorado? Why you gotta do my parents like that?

My childhood home price rose modestly since the 90s because of white flight. From a suburb. Turns out white people don't like it when their home is rezoned into the poor school.
