Instead of whining about 'muh home prices,' why don't younger people simply live in a cheaper 'fixer-upper' home for a while, and use that time to save up for their 'forever' home? You will learn lots of valuable handyman skills along the way.

>>539511523>instead of whining about prices of homes you should buy one and spend money repairing it>Then you can save moneyFucking idiot. This can't even be considered gaslighting. You do it all day on every topic. You "people" are not sentient.

No one that bitches about housing prices is saying that they can't buy a palatial estate on a DEIcorp pittance, they're saying they can't buy ANYTHING habitable, however humble. The math does not work.
>>539511523Spam thread
Every op is written by something so ignorant and so unbelievably inaccurate that the only thing left to do on the board is try and beat the stupid out of whatever is colonizing this space and killing it off with malice.

I've seen small homes in safe communities that have potential to be added on to and improved in many ways that are less than 200,000. People raised families in these homes in the past, but everyone, who endlessley bitch on the internet, wants to live in a mansion or something.I have seen these properties evolve my entire life.
>>539511523>birminghamyeah nah that is a nigger-infested city for the most part
>>539511523Life's hard and now you want us to literally rebuild dilapidated houses? I don't have the time, energy, youth, spirit or encouragement to do this.
>>539511523$8,500? Wow, what a steal! Should only cost another $20,000-$30,000 to tear it down, then you can start building in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the heart of a top 5 most dangerous city in America. The black population is only about 70%, and the poverty rate is about the same, so you should be fine. New construction for a basic home should only cost you about $350,000 - $500,000 all said and done, assuming it doesn't get burnt down, stripped for copper, etc. Which it will, because this is a drug den and virtually all of that damage has been done pretty recently according to Google Street View. This will be all in cash by the way, no bank is going to lend you a cent for any of this. Median home price in that area is only about ~$100k and not going up with the crack den apartment complex 200 ft away, so get comfortable because you're never getting out of there whole. Boy, you sure have an eye for and deep understanding of real estate OP!
>>539512257>200k>Terms: CashFuck you.
>>539512257You're insane. My boomer parents bought a infinitely better than this house for 100k almost 30 years ago. You are better off renting a cheapass apartment to "Raise a family" these days.

this is bait, learn to sage, newfags
>>539511523I did this when I was 19. I bought a shit hole crack house in the ghetto for $3,500, because I couldn't even get a shitty apartment. That's when I was introduced to "Big" the local drug dealer, nice guy really. He had like ten houses around that area that he rented out to section 8 to his baby mammas. He made thousands a month from the government by housing his girlfriends and their niglets. I lived in my ghetto shack for about two years fixing it up, then I rented it out to section 8 and bought another one.
>>539511523They would rather spend all their money on roast chicken and toys.
