Condo yikes.
Condos are just glorified apartments in my opinion. Neighbors connected to you, can't blast music at 3am whenever you want, if the building needs a repair or the owner wants to upgrade it you have to contribute, etc etc. I refuse to buy a condo or a mobile home.
Renting one is too.

@@masonsoutdoorsportsmenadve4933 suck to be "poor" and not being able to just buy it in one go, huh?
I "own" my own home, but still have to pay $400 a month tax in order to keep it. That's not ownership, that's renting. If I stop paying my "rent", I will lose "my" house.
I agree that it's insane and makes no sense

That tax helps to protect your property and its value.
$100 a week for security and peace of mind as opposed to $600 a week and wondering if the lease you just signed will be your last because of the grass being 1cm too long and a dirty cup in the sink on your last house inspection… maybe try and look at the glass half full..?
@@scottharveth No, it doesn't. Taxes are theft.
Asking a real estate agent whether you should buy a home right now is like to asking an alcoholic whether they think you should have a drink lol. Homes in my neighborhood that cost around $450k in sales in 2019 are now going for $800 to $950k. Every seller in my neighborhood is currently making a $350k profit. Simply unreal. In all honesty, deflation is what we require. The only other option is for many people to go bankrupt, which would also be bad for the economy. That is the only way to return to normal.
Interest rate is currently at 4.75%(8th rate hike since March last year) Inflation at 7% and mortgage rates is at over 7.5% but yet minimum wage remains the same and my retirement portfolio has suffered tremendously these past years, so my question is how do senior citizens retire and live off such unstable economy. The long term game is obviously not for me at this point.
Despite utilizing the correct strategies and possessing the right assets, there can still be variations in the investment returns among different investors. It is important to acknowledge that experience plays a crucial role in investment success. Personally, I realized the significance of this and sought the guidance of a market analyst, which enabled me to substantially grow my account to nearly a million. I strategically withdrew my profits just before the market correction, and now I am taking advantage of the buying opportunities once again.
I definitely share your sentiment about these firms. When I was starting out, I checked out a couple of freelance investors online, so you could do the same. I personally work with “Colleen Janie Towe”, and she's is widely recognized for her proficiency and expertise in the financial market. With a comprehensive knowledge of portfolio diversification, she is acknowledged as an authority in this field.
reducing the population is one of the keys to reduce prices.

These are very valuable rules for anybody who wants to get rich. Unfortunately, most people who will watch this video will not really be able to apply the principles. We may not want to admit, but as Warren Buffett once said, investing is like any other profession-- it requires a certain level of expertise. No surprise that some people are losing a lot of money in the bear market, while others are making hundreds of thousands in profit. I just don't know how they do it. I have about $109k now to put in the market.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for license advisors and came across someone of due diligence, helped a lot to grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to approx. $850k so far.

I tried to explain this to my friends when I was younger, and they couldn’t grasp it. I tried to get them to understand that with a 30 year mortgage you were essentially paying for the house twice. This was when homes were much more affordable. With today’s prices, I’m scared to think what the future holds.
A person buying a house for $300,000 will likely pay about $750,000 over 30 years.
The alternative is trying to outpace inflation with saving up.
Also, you should be doing a 15 year at most. So that significantly changes the amount of interest you pay. If you can't afford a 15 year, you can't afford the house period.
@@seanin1990 that is true, but you also have to consider the time value of money, asset appreciation, and the opportunity cost of alternatives. For example, if we assume the 30 year long run national average appreciation of 4.5%, that $300,000 home will be worth about $1.2M when it's finally paid off. Sure you paid $750,000, but you also got nearly $500K worth of capital appreciation.
Maybe your friends weren’t morons like you?
@@seanin1990 who cares? Someone renting the home will pay three times as much over 30 years.
Mortgage Broker Here. I knew this dirty secret for years and helped get many below 3% loans. Then Quit. In my 25yr career, I've only been able to convince 4 people to pay off their house. The perpetual interest game is the death to one's financial freedom. GREAT VIDEO!
Most dont even care about how much interest costs them long term. Everyone wants everything right now, even if it costs them 2x as much making payments.
@@redrustyhill2 Very True
@@redrustyhill2 Inflate the interest away.
It's amortizing. the stated rate is actually much lower, so low, that if you just purchased a 30 year risk free T-Note, you would have earned more money than the entire interest paid. It's like foregoing $1.1 million in investment returns to save $460,000 in interest.
@@investmentanalyst779id like to see that dubious math…30 year bond rates aren’t great compared to mortgage rate…that’s kind of the point
I was a Mortgage Loan Officer not too long ago. I tried to refinance as many people as I can into 15 year loans instead of 30, which typically removes 3/4 of the interest.
The problem was many of them didn't have enough income to do that.
And that's usually the case with buyers. They buy what they can't really afford. Thank you for explaining that to the rest of us.
Agreed, it’s also additional risk since their required payment is higher.
If you lose your job, having that lower payment is going to be really really nice!
if u rent youre getting screwed
if you get a mortgage youre REALLY screwed
if you buy your house cash you still have to pay taxes over and over on something you already purchased so youre still screwed

*Note:* Houses used to be cheaper than cars...
I often joke that some cars cost more than a house, so I guess in some places they are still cheaper. I bought a nice penthouse for $30K in Africa and some of my relatives in the USA have paid more than that for a vehicle.
My dad said cars used to be $3,000 or so for a new car. Houses used to be like $64,000 - $80,000 for a decent houses. Now a new truck is $62,000 and those cheaper houses are closer to $200,000, the more expensive houses back in the day are in the $400,000+ market.
@@bradwjensen you have to go back to the 40s before world war and adjust for inflation...

Houses in the 40's cost less than a car today. Houses were always more expensive than a passenger car at the same period in history.
Even when you pay the house off, it's still not yours. Stop paying your property tax and you'll find out who the real owner is.
Bingo. We live under the illusion of ownership in this country.
Then don't complain about not having roads to your house, or highways, or any public infraestructure for what matters. Your reductionist point makes no sense.
@bazooka712 how ever did we have roads before the govt built them for us? Anyways the point stands. We have an illusion of ownership in this country.
@@Elementalism The roads you had weren't as much and as wide as they are now. There are more cars in the road, bigger ones at that, suburbs expanded drastically over the last 50 years, and everywhere you go you basically need pavement for cars because of the dependency the car industry lobbied the US citizens into.
Once again, your reductionist statement just shows how easy it is to defend a point that, in hind sight, is a bad one.
@@bazooka712 All I'm saying is, there's no such thing as Home Ownership. Someone else will always own your home. Either the Bank or the Government. But never you.
The one thing i don't understand is how people always like to say they bought a house. Is misleading, the reality is they took a loan. To buy something is to pay the price in full.
In that case, people shouldn't say they bought a car until it's paid off, and they shouldn't say that they bought anything with their credit cards until it's paid off too.

Video basically describes how amortization works on a mortgage and how more and more people are unlikely to stay in the house they just bought for long enough to actually pay off any of the principle of the loan. Essentially meaning that if one just stays in a house they own for a couple years before moving, they are basically just renting from the bank as little to none of the loan was paid off.
This assumes the property doesn't appreciate.
wrong, here you have to pay it off in 30 years. You can take the mortgage with you. But you lose a lot of incentives that only last 30 years MAX.
Here you have 2 type of mortgages in the Netherlands. We have or had even more. But we have amortization, and lineair one. The last one the pay off is the same every month the interest gets smaller by the years. So no amortization. Also, when i move to another house i can take the mortgage with me. And continue paying it off.
Homes appreciate. The house I grew up in was bought by my parents for 70k. 6 years ago they sold it for just under 3.2 million. I bought a house for 220k in the 90s after college and lived there for about 20 years. I sold it for 1.3 million 2 years ago and bought a brand new home for 500k financing 250k . I feel bad for people who don't understand how to build wealth.
@@socialseahawksfan9325 Can we always count on homes appreciating in value?
A 30 year mortgage makes more sense if you were buying your first home in your early 20s. Seems like a riskier proposition if you are buying your first home in your 40s.

I’ve turned from trying to own a house to looking at an Older RV. I can no longer imagine the idea of being suckered into spending my entire life trying to pay off one thing. I would likely die before I ever did, why even waste my life chasing this forced ideal of nothingness and stagnation
Enjoy living in your cramped RV with limited power for utilities (depending on if you're going solar and traveling or if you're paying lot fees and hooked up to a grid). I'll enjoy buying a nice comfortable small house that I can make affordable payments on after the housing market crashes. Congratulations on falling for this propaganda..if "home ownership" is keeping you poor, you'll be living like a king in your little RV.
@@bigpep7987this whole video is total propaganda. It's nefarious. If anyone is dumb enough to believe that, it's sad.
@@bigpep7987 No need to piss on another person's future living arrangements. The RV lifestyle works if you can stomach owning less and making do with the limited space you have. In the province of British Columbia, home ownership and rents are so expensive many have only two choices: Homelessness or the RV lifestyle. Funnily enough, BC politicians hate RV people because they don't pay property taxes. So there's that silver lining.
You have to live below your means. I bought my 1000 SQ ft home in 94. I was 26. I remember the real estate agent trying to get me to buy something bigger because I had the credit and income to afford it. He called the house I selected a "starter home" I took out a 30 year loan. I paid extra on principal every month and paid it off in 11 years. My interest rate was 6.75%. Had I got the house I could barely afford vs. what I needed, I would be just now paying it off 30 years later. I'm a single male living in a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house. Why would I need more house? I've invested and saved to become a millionaire, yet you wouldn't think so at all by the way I dress and what I drive. My life is easy. I'm quite content still in my "starter home".
I have a 32 foot motorhome that I own on my property. You can have it. I have a building now. Free
Just a reminder to everyone obsessed with owning things......Life and everything in it is temporary, enjoy as much as you can before you expire
Yeah but at some point I'm not gonna be able to earn as much as i do now. If rather just pay propert tax than a whole rent.
Rent prices increase continuously. Your mortgage will only increase with tax and insurance. 5 years in your rent will go up by hundreds often while ur mortgage payment doesn't. It will always eventually be cheaper. My dad pays 800 bucks a month for a house that's like 1600 square feet with a garage, and .4 acres, 10 minutes from uptown charlotte. Rent is on average like 1500 to 1800 a month here.
wait until you get in a nightmare scenario with a landlord, and both you end up in court. You'll warm up to having way more rights as a homeowner
Aight then tell that to Governments, Corpos and the Vatican first. When they release themselves of material obsession, I'll follow suit.

I am happy I payed off my 20 year mortgage four years ago and been saving my mortgage payments every since and it feels so good knowing I can live for free because the state I live in there is no property taxes at full retirement age or 100% disabled veterans and I am both.

You said it, many Americans know damn well that they’ll never actually pay off a mortgage. Yet the autonomy and prestige that comes with owning a home is highly desired. I waited til I retired out of the military to buy a home that my pension more than covers…
Paid mine off in 15. Im 40 now. Self employed artist almost my entire life. Now I pay nothing to live in my home. I pay 1000/yr for insurance. bought home for 65k. 700/mo payments.
Most people make the mistake of investing in NEW cars or trucks. My home only increases in value every year. A car or truck that is 20k, cost 1/3rd of my home, and in 15 years, will be worth a couple thousand at best. So they paid 30k for a car loan that is now worth 3k. That house that cost 65k, that cost 100k in loans, now is worth 100k after 15 years.

Mortgages are an inferior product as it’s the banks asset and your liability.
If you pay off a 30-year mortgage early, do you still have to pay off the entire balance with interest?
Some stay dry & others feel the pain🤟
No
Nope, you only pay interest if you dont have money to pay off the loan. Funny thing is once
you pay off your mortgage loan, the bank will take their money back and lend it out again.
Mortgage loans are front loaded for interest payments, look at amortization tables for clarity. When the principal is paid off the interest and loan ends. Sooner you can pay it off the less interest you will pay. However most people stick to minimum payments and on average move every 7 years resetting the interest payments when they start a new loan having only paid a small amount of principal.
if it's a normal home loan then no, but if it's a commerial loan there may be a prepay fee as high as 10% of loan
I believe in the van life. Because owning a home is just so depressing, and expensive!
Yet, home ownership is a status desired by so many people! It's a status symbol :D
a house in 1980 was $50,000, now that house is $500,000,
even if you own the house out right, the property taxes on that house are 13,500 a year.

Most people I’ve seen living that van/trailer life are genuinely happy. On the opposite, the suburbs are flooded with truly miserable homeowners who feel trapped and hopeless. Says a lot.
Refinancing a mortgage is not always a bad deal. I took out a 30 yr mortgage years ago at 6% interest. After 10 yrs I refinanced to a 15 yr mortgage at 3% thus lowering my monthly payment and reducing the length of my mortgage by 5 years. Closing costs on the refinance was minimal as well. If you're smart and your timing is right, it can pay off doing this.
Refinancing isint a bad thing if you can get a lower interest rate and select a lower term each time. Dont keep getting a 30 yr mortgage otherwise you might as well rent.
your absolutely right but younger gen 35 n under are used to ZIRP type environmen and pre 2000's it was never around 0% interest. House prices should correct but there is too much Institional money buying houses for cash offers to turn people into forever renters. Seems like only option for them is to save like hell living with their parents an buy cash to not get screwed on loans/etc
I agree. My parents did the same successfully and will have paid off the entire mortgage in a few short years.

This is a capitalist system. So you have to play by their rules. Invest in NASDAQ or the S&P 500 and you will easily be able to afford a house
In other words, the real estate market is a credit market. It is similar to student loan debts, the more people that can get financing to go to college/university, the higher the tuition fees go up.

Homes are built like shite, pressboard, paper and glue.
Rent easily makes up 33 to 50 percent of the average monthly american income as well. A 30 year mortgage was never intended to be used for houses that the buyers intended to live in, the high term interest in combination with low monthly payments was intended to create free cash flow for the buyers by renting additional unused unit space in the house or on the property itself.
The video makes a good point about not overleveraging yourself to buy a home but does not present all sides of home ownership such as the fact the government incentives home ownership by subsidizing (through tax deductions) the payment of interest... that's usually reduces your interest payment by around 20%. Inflation, especially as high as it is now, also erodes the true amount of the mortgage while generally increasing the value of the property. If you financed in 2020 you would be paying 2.5% in interest while seeing inflation of around double to triple that number and (at least in CA) experiencing double digit increases in home values.
Totally. In fact, it not all that bad if one has passive income. If one's passive income is $66k & tax, rent, loan, debt, bills, food, fun, etc. is $44k, then save/invest $22k to get more passive income (like a "smart" gov/bank) 😁
Don't forget all the maintenance cost of owning a home. Recently had to do a repipe on the house, which was pretty expensive, then you gotta pay some one to patch all the holes, and another person to paint it . And of course uncle Sam gets his cut from property taxes that increases every year.
Forced remodeling is about t be added to that as well. All the ESG standards being imposed over this decade include having as many homes, apartments and commercial property being as "green" as possible or get a hefty fine. Many homes will be forced to get solar panels, to change out materials to the extent of gutting the house to the frame and build back, to have the electrical system swapped out, to have SMART appliances to reduce electricity and track your use.

@@jessecortez9449 ya, and 20 years ago people were screaming that we can't do anything about climate change because "it will hurt the economy". The bill always comes due, and sadly, it will cost individuals unless the government steps in to provide financial aid for all these upgrades that we desperately need. I live in Cicero IL and just spent $40K on flood restoration, replacing my furnace, water heater, and AC, and installing a sewerage check valve ($8500 by itself) to prevent my basement from flooding again. These things were never necessary 100 years ago when my house was built (continuous urbanization has also exacerbated the problem) but climate change has made all these things even worse. Now, we're stuck paying for all the new mitigation on an individual and societal level.
I had a $15,000 sewer line replacement a few years back. People have no idea how home ownership can end up costing way more than renting. Fortunately I bought a house that was way under what I could afford and can easily afford to replace the entire house but most people are not in my position.
DIY conquers all. I just totally re-plumbed my modest house for $450. Would have cost thousands to have a plumber do it.

How?
Not to mention houses are straight up money pits, every renovation costs tens of thousands of dollars, and theyre extremely inefficient so you spend a ton of money powering, heating, and cooling them
Do you know why they are such money pits? Because it the single most important thing to have for a level of life. If you don't have a home then you can't have anything.
That is why homeless people are the bottom of society.
They don't have to be inefficient, but it costs a lot to make them efficient.
@Ziegfried82 it really doesn't and homes cost a bunch of money to build anyways so why not make them sustainable?
My paid off home was stolen.
I was in a bad place due to a family tragedy and before I could rise above this crippling sorrow, and even open my mail, they were selling it off with the inflated interest to taxes. So turning 3000-4000 into $17,000.

Debt is a slow poison that most people don't recognise is killing them.
I own a house, and I'm glad my kids grew up with a yard and no folks above, below, beside me. That's worth the debt.
Yes, kids are the ultimate motivation for me and my happpiness and having a home in a small city in the wood with fresh air, green and life all around, nature, I pay not only for the home but the environment we are surrounded with. It's not just cars, roads, building, noise, bad air, etc.
On the other hand if choose to don't have kids and if you travel a lot, a house in the city is the way to go. If I had kids I'd probably choose your life style.
Dude I lived in a 10 store apartment block in Siberia and this is the best type of housing if you want to come out and have 20+ kids playing around any time of the day, instead of this American suburbia model where you need to walk for miles to stumble upon another human. It is also funny to note that Brits say that apartments like that smell like piss and people would use elevator as a toilet, but in Omsk where I`m from, in the full absence of any CCTV no one have ever pissed in the elevator, which just shows the difference between cultural level of post USSR and UK. Tower block is not the problem, its of a people problem.
This individualism taken to extreme and fear of any collective is a sign of a society with low level of culture and lack of decency. If you have decent people around you, who wash dishes and clean up their place, sharing a house or living in a dorm is not an issue. I lived in a shared house with an American white kid who was a foreign student and with a Polish dude, I would say - I would rather share a house with Pole than live in a separate house on the same street with an American. Complete absence of any empathy or ability to understand other peoples perspective, basic Christian values - do not act to others as you wouldn`t like to be acted upon by others.
I honestly don`t even know how do Americans manage to live in such a society where no one cares about anyone and everyone is aggressively protecting his little chunk of grass in front of the house.

@@yowspisaac6113 I am using apps like Movoto, Remax, Zillow and just local government land to find them. There are plenty of land, my range is 10,000$ to 50,000$ you can get about an acre depending on the location.
I Have seen some good properties near Lake Davis going from 25k to 45k near lakes that looks beautiful. payment on land is cheaper so buying land at 50k you would pay around 300$ a month!

It depends. Some people invest in stocks, business, and real estate while renting because they move around so much. It doesn’t make sense to get a mortgage when you have other actual investments that are more profitable and you know you are going to be moving in a couple years. If you are actively funding investments, renting isn’t always a bad choice.

There ya go.... owning and paying off a home can lead to generational wealth. If your grandad didn't do it, you would be renting or homeless. Instead you live there for free.
Ownership only works if you don't have the mortgage payment, for most homeowners that is NEVER going to happen as crazy as that sounds they will never pay off their loan due to constantly "upgrading" to new homes over the years. Your grandfather did it the right way.
This guy misses the point entirely of the advantages of extending mortgage payments out 15 to 30 years. Mainly, inflation will eat cost of money making it cheaper. Tax write off on mortgage interest paid. Equity is building. Reinvest extra cash into other investments (i.e. stocks, ira's, etc.). So he's not giving a complete picture....only a tiny one.

I think there’s an important point missing from this video. For most people, it’s not about wealth building. It’s deciding between renting from a place that has ever rising costs and seeing zero return on your investment or choosing a fixed monthly loan payment that builds at least some equity. Yeah mortgages are bad as investments usually but renting means 100% losses. A mortgage mitigates that loss.
This is a realtor line. I guarantee that if you rent a modest place in your area (as opposed to buying) and put the difference into 401k w/employer match and index funds like SPY and VOO that you will have greater assets over time (and liquid ones too!) than a rotting wooden box.
Stupid bus just drop you off?
@@matthewphillips5483 not a wise plan. Within 3 to 5 years, your rent with its annual increase will be the same as your neighbors mortgage payment, no benefit anymore.
Within 15 years, your rent will be twice that of your neighbors mortgage payment.
Within 30 years your neighbor will have no mortgage payments, while you are still paying rent, now 4x what his last mortgage payment was.
Long term, the renter always loses, making someone else rich by paying off the landlord's mortgage.

Average middle class salary and single. No outside financial help from anyone. Never made a lot of money in my life. No inheritance or gifts. Still bought a three bedroom townhouse in a large city. How? All I had to do was make the simple decision to live in a city I could afford. I had to balance cost of living against available salary in my field. Would I love to live somewhere else? Somewhere considered more “desirable”? Sure! But being financially responsible and cautious is more important. Next, yes the 30yr mortgage costs you an enormous amount of interest. However, unless your neighborhood REALLY goes downhill, the property will likely be worth what you’ve paid for it over those 30 yrs (minus the property taxes and major repair costs, approximately). Ultimately, it still costs you less than renting a similar property and you have a valuable asset to your name. Furthermore, once you’ve paid off that house and you’re an empty-nester you can rent it out and live somewhere smaller. This doomsday mentality of most people not being able to pay off their mortgage is silly. Yea… if you’re 50 and buy a house on a 30yr mortgage, you’re pretty dumb and you’re pushing your luck, obviously. Buy a house you can afford on a 15 or 20 or mortgage at most! So many people have this entitlement mentality that they have to buy the huge home in their 20’s just to keep up with the Jones’s. Be financially responsible. Don’t buy things you can’t afford to buy in cash (including education) Buy a small house. This isn’t rocket science, folks.
It’s true. The problem isn’t necessarily predatory banking.
You can “Credit Max” and get a “small loan” to buy things like, a generator, portable toiletry, high quality long term camping gear and a small plot of land for dirt. Live a few hours from a city? You got free electricity for your generator if you know where to find it. Got a firearm or a crossbow? You got meat. Maybe a forest to “drop some seeds” in the woods. You got a garden.. all for much cheaper than these Ponzi schemes. Revolt against the modern world.

As much as I agree with this, I've tried living in a custom-built camper van for 3 years and not having a steady place to park and having to poop inside a van is a pretty annoying trade off.

Exactly. I am 31 and we bought our house without any mortgage. Yes, we didn’t dine out for a few years, we didn’t buy much at all for two years and on top paid rent. It was hard often but worth it in the end. We were able to get a lower price even during the horrible pandemic housing market because we paid cash and the seller took our offer over a higher one with bank involvement.
There’s still lots to do to make it my dream home and we do much ourselves, if we can but it was worth it.
Trick is, you can actually write a check, on top of your current payment towards PRINCIPAL ONLY. And once your equity surpass 20% remove your PMI (prime mortgage insurance)
Exactly I did that with just $100 extra per month and when I sold it the equity was huge!
Unfortunately, my mortgage structure doesn't allow that, or so I was told. I think because it is rural FHA.
Is this the same with a car too or all depends on value milage etc?
@christopherparsons3224 I'd double check that... that's not the norm in mortgages, though it does exist. Refinance with less shitty bank, if that's an option.
You can remove pmi if the value goes up, also.
When the economy tanked in 2008 my dad bought 4 houses and my husband bought one. At the peak of the economy after COVID and before inflation hit, we sold our house and bought 92 acres and built a 1200sqft with cash. My dad sold 2 houses a paid cash for 2 houses in Louisiana and paid off the mortgage on the one house he still owed on. That's how you pay off your mortgage and get out of debt.
If I am not mistaken, but back in the 1800s and 1900s, didn't people just build their homes? Sure, it wasn't elaborate like how homes are today. But it was still a home. But I guess people back then didn't have to deal with city/county ordinances either.
If there were loans to cover building maybe people would do thus. But not everyone can build idk
Yes it is all the government regulations that cripple people's ability to build their own dwellings. You can see tons of shanty towns all over the 3rd world but in the West you are not allowed to do that..closest thing is the tent cities.
They still had to buy the land to build that home on
Land we don't own. 🤡
my dad said that his grandfather (a carpenter/house builder,) never bought a house - he built them with scrap lumber he brought home from work. the only exception was the last house he lived in which his son helped him buy. he was about 82 when he bought this house and lived 4 years after that. the only reason was his son wanted his parents out of the house he built 33 years earlier because it had no indoor plumbing. the houses people lived in decades ago were shacks compared to the mcmansions people now feel like they're entitled to.
Instead of dealing with banks, I borrowed money from rich friends to buy my apartment and I'm paying back without interest. My father bought his by working overseas for ten years. No banks, no interest. We're not super smart, we don't have great jobs, but we found a way. So can you, person reading this. Good luck, you'll need it :D
Another choice is to stay overseas while making good money. Expats live a comfortable life in the Philippines on 2,000 dollars per month. Absolutely insane by American standards.
I remember when i wanted to refinance my car after 2 yrs to get a lower lower payment because “it seemed smart and thats the norm” but my dad went over the math with me and told me its not a good idea, yea the payment is lower but your gonna pay more. Seems nice but not on papers, numbers never lie. You’re literally getting ripped off with out knowing 🤯
I’ve been told that unless you can see yourself being in the same house for 7+ years just rent bc the money you’re “throwing away” into rent is also essentially being thrown away into interest on your mortgage and at least with renting the ability to move is significantly easier than the process of selling and buying another property elsewhere.
Yeah makes sense
I agree, although if for example your loans are done well enough and you're a handy person it's definitely worth it to own the house even if the bank owns it since landlords hack up rent immensely plus never fix anything while expecting you to not fix those issues.
Depends on the mortgage and the average rent. Where I live the rent is considerably higher than a corresponding mortgage would be. Think of it as the bank being the landlord. You rent from the bank but you get whatever price increase the house accumulates. Plus you can do whatever you want because banks don't care - they're good landlords. If the mortgage is equal or less than rent, buy a house.
Nah you are paying into an investment (your house and possibly land) when you paying off mortgage. Paying rent is just throwing money away. It might be small amount of money and might be more logical in certain situations...
Sounds like some bullshit landlord propaganda. Look at who this content creator’s guest is and what stake he might have in you not owning anything.

Its great having a mortgage. But i think the point is dont spend all your life trying to pay it off.
The real scame is in the property tax, insurance, HOA, & upkeep. Even when you find a way to pay your mortgage in full, you still need to battle to maintain it. The only way out of it is to get a remote role and finding a way to live in the cheapest area in the country.
Nobody talks about this but you are exactly right. There's way more to this "game" than just the mortgage. It is an absolute never ending uphill battle to maintain a house. The only winning hand is like you said, remote work, cheap location.

This video would have never been made just 2 years ago when 30 years fixed rates were under 3%. People who locked in those loans have made the wisest personal finance decision of their lifetime. He says in 3-5 years you will PROBABLY be moving, hhmmm, no, as a matter of fact it is likely you won't move because you locked in your housing costs at such a low rate compared to what is available in 2023.
In most of the markets right now, if you were to buy a house that is ready to move in, interest rates are at 7% for 15 year and 8% for 30 year fixed. Inflation is insane right now also so most homes are WAY over priced, like 30% over. This is a horrible time to buy a house to live in, even investment properties don't make since at these rates because rents are collapsing. Who tf can afford 2k or more a month rent that doesn't live in a city? ( that's $11/hour standard work week gone to rent out of your paycheck ). I mean, in some parts of the country, $20/ hour is a good wage, minus that $11/hour rent, my god you're going to be so poor. That's worse than house poor, that's rent poor, you get nothing for it, and so rents are collapsing right now because there are SO many Air BnB's screwing up the market. I don't think it will be much longer till those people start selling their "investments" because no one is renting these places at those crazy rates.

So what is going on with housing now where ordinary people who are first time home buyers can no longer afford a house? The banks decided they don't like making money off us working class folks anymore?
You always pay more than your bill and you can direct more to the principal just as you can direct more to your escrow (the account they hold your insurance and taxes at). Go hard up front to distrupt the amortization schedule. Just pay more on your principal each month and always do a Principal Interests and Escrow loan bundled so you don't have to worry about taxes yourself come due time. If you bought a house from 2008 thru 2016 you were good. Also you can pay off a house and not move aka don't take on a new loan in a higher rate higher property valued environment. Always fixed rate. No adjustable or variable rate.
Not watched full video yet, but here in England I was helping my mum (mom!) buy a home to live out her last years in.

take on a 100k debt now and have to pay it off in 30 years, alot of interest but, given the history of the world, inflation is ridiculous and because of that, ur debt will be much smaller just because of the value ratio. its not a guarantee but so far, it pretty much has gone the way of inflation.
Absolutely, for most of the 20th century, home ownership was almost guaranteed to bring financial freedom.
This is something most people will never consider and the video completely ignored. When you have a fixed rate long term debt, inflation is your friend
@@villain1813 exactly, literally devours ur debt lololol.
Exactly, this is why the 30 years is arguably the best option given the half life of the dollar is approximately 10 years.
@@treesway2241 30 years and even the upcoming 40 year plan can definitely be the best options for many people, however, most people are dumb and have no idea how to manage their finances whatsoever, they dont know how to take on debt and unfortunately thats the majority of people going for these plans, thats they are "evil" lolol. the plans not evil, people are just dumb.
of course, the best option is to clean an asset as soon as possible and to start off as big as possible but most people consider what they r paying upfront more than they do anything else. the long term almost doesnt exist for most people, its crazy to us!!
I was lucky enough to buy a house around 2005 when prices were high but not as crazy as now. Looked to pay it off faster knowing what interests do over time(+being younger is the right time in life for this), which I did after some years of hard work and sacrificing on other expenses. Yet, according to my parents, I actually kinda screwed up that I didnt either try to take a bigger mortgage for a larger house or didnt go for another property straight after. I find it kinda worrying that a lot of people now share this sentiment of completely overlooking the possible dangers of saddling themselves with debt because properties would supposedly always be worth it.
something I noticed that I would like to call *the seven deadly sins of eternal debt* :
[tell me if you think I am wrong on something and why, I want to know]
1. a never-ending *home loan* due to always changing circumstances and need of re-contracting [alone, family, alone again]
2. a never-ending *debt to the college* you learned from, because of government backed student loans [FREE MONEY!!! wait... oh.]
3. *predatory loans practices* and *credit card debt* [keep that cheddar flowing!]
4. the *predatory practices of government required businesses* {insurance, licensing, certification, medical, etc.} [I'm required by law, now pay up!]
5. the creation of *hyper condensed mega cities* and *sparse rural communities* which remain separate from each other *[high crime or lack of jobs]*
6. the *house casino:stock market,* with *investors* being the *primary customer* [data is the new oil] of *"public" companies*
7. the *breakdown of the family* via *government sugar daddies* and *abusive family court* [men accused lose everything... guilty till proven innocent.]
Hope you have a great day & Safe Travels!
Get a 30 year loan for smaller repayments but aim to pay it off as quickly as possible. Make sure your loan allows extra principal payments and no early pay off penalties.
The alternative is forever increasing rental prices and owning nothing..
Imagine being penalized for doing a good thing of paying off your mortgage loan early, something you should be rewarded for, imagine that, you can’t win from losing in this world smh
@@lovelydiva06 you can get penalized, because they lose profit.
this is why interest is forbidden in Islam
It’s forbidden in Christianity, but it’s called “usury” in the Bible. Folks don’t seem to realize it’s the same thing, because the contemporary use of the word means exorbitant interest. But the actual word in the Bible refers to interest of any sort.
That's cuz Allah doesn't know how basic economics works i guess
@@iamawesomelessnessshame on you
@@iamawesomelessnessor Allah does know and has forbidden it for that reason. 🧐
When you upgrade your home, you do not start over again from zero because you already have equity on the home that you sold.
But the loan restarts when you refinance. Upgrading a home isn't the same as refinancing.
What happens when you stop paying property tax? Do you still get to keep your home if it's already paid off - fee simple? NOPE! So does anyone truly own their home? NOPE! Usury extraction to the tenth degree.
Stop paying rent and you’ll be out faster than they get the person not paying taxes
You done owe property tax to begin with. If you own your own, it is your property. Are you a slave to the government?
Um... I don't think you understand home ownership. When you pay off your house, you own it, you don't pay the bank anymore. The government taxes you for the property you own when you purchase the property and is ongoing till you don't own the property anymore. The tax depends on the location of your land and is different depending on your state... the banks and the state are 2 different things...
There are ongoing services to the land/landowner, who else should pay?
My father paid his house off cash during the 2008 crash 300k he foreclosed it and paid 64k cash and still till this day says its not mine piss off the goverment and see how quickly they take it away . He has 2 other house in different countries for backup plans
It seem we back to 1900s that owning home is for previllage but worse that greedy coporate distort it. Let depression happen to reset again.
Watching this while dropping a deuce in the first house I bought.

I worked as an estate planner for years and can assure you home buying is indeed a racket and sinkhole for money. Many wealthy people rent and refuse to 'buy' a home. This is the first video of this kind I have ever seen and is completely true.
"Many wealthy people" huh? while the vast majority of millionaires were made via real estate.
Rent is the same or more than a mortgage payment for the past ten years but especially now so I think your working with outdated information
every wealthy person I've ever known owned their home.
You don't "pass on your debt to your kids". Children are not responsible to pay off their parents' debts.
When I was growing up 2 family homes were very common in my neighborhood. You lived in one half and rented the other. The rent covered most of not all of the mortgage.
The real issue is out of control home costs, everyone buying homes that are too big for their income and budget, and using the 30 year loan in order to finance something that you couldn’t afford in the first place.
Mortgage brokers have to use debt to income and loan to value ratios when qualifying potential borrowers to prevent people from buying homes they can’t afford. Whether or not the borrower is comfortable with their payment is solely up to the borrower, but mortgages are much more regulated than they were prior to the housing crisis in 2008.
that's the point banks keeping housing price to enslave the people its a trap
100%. This is a consumer psychology problem, not a mortgage math problem. This is exactly why car dealers ask you what you want your monthly payment to be, rather than how much you're willing to spend on the car. They can always extend the loan terms from 3 yrs to 6 years on a car loan, depending what you can afford per month, which means you can buy more and more expensive cars (even if you probably shouldn't), simply by extending the loan to lower the monthly payment. This also goes for student loans and one reason why the cost of education has skyrocketed.
@@drake69420yeah then after they qualify you and all is signed.....guess what...they start increasing things for your monthly payment to be increased...taxes increase, escrow increase etc etc monthly payments increase to more than what you was qualified for
Unfortunately, that's the point: if we only bought things we could feasibly buy without a lifetime of saving most people these days wouldn't be able to buy homes at all. Everyone would be renting or somesuch.
We don’t own homes 👏🏻 we only rent them from the king under threat of our life/freedom

Mortgage is often cheaper than rent but once you factor in Water, Sewer, Garbage, State, and Property tax you're paying just as much or more than rent.
Realize this as I'm just at $600 30min outside Asheville with all paid included wifi.. thank you🙏💙
You get write offs on interest and property tax. If you move and rent out...there's even more advantages (tax free money) you can get through depreciation and other passive type income
You can't rent off rent on income tax, but you can for property tax.
Oh and you pay for water and other utilities anyways if you are renting. You literally spend far more in rent for most cases compared to insurance/prop taxes.
Do you stop paying rent after 30 years? Do you get any credit to your rent when the property value goes up? GThe difference between renting and owning is that renting puts money in to a landlords pocket. Owning eventually puts money in to YOUR pocket.
The largest difference is the mortgage, you're paying yourself and the bank. If you rent and pay $2000/m, then the entire $2000 is gone. If you have a mortgage and pay $2000/m depending on the loan schedule, you should be paying $700 to yourself and $1300 to the bank, by year 30 it's $1950 to yourself and $50 to the bank. Lastly, your home is a hard asset that appreciates in value.
Rent seems more then a mortgage payment in most citites . So no matter what you lose unless you buy a multifamily home ( like a duplex) and rent the other half out for the value of the mortgage payment
In Canada, even if you own your house outright, you dont. Not only do You pay property tax. But, the government controls what you do with your house.
They have vacant home taxes, basically if you dont live in it, you have to rent it out, or pay a 2% tax on the assessed value.
Now consider having renters. Landlords are so limited in how they can deal with delinquent tenants. Tenants have more rights than landlords. Landlord's pay all this money towards the house and land, meanwhile, they are unable to easily evict tenants who are trying to live rent free.
Now consider, paying a mortgage, property tax, maintenance and upkeep.
To avoid vacancy tax, you just need to have your name registered on the house...
That's what happens when people keep voting in Liberal Governments, especially one with Trudeau in charge.
Canada is really bad for just about everything finance related.
Your angry you can't own lots of houses and keeping them empty while you see them as assets to increase in price. Excuse me if people don't see you as a victim. People like you are part of the problem.
Oh man, are you just a good little propaganda mill for the elites. Do they pay you or just pat you on the back?
The vacant home tax is to prevent a false shortage of housing to inflate prices; that thing currently in America massively jacking up the prices. It's literally there to deter manipulation of the market for profit.
The laws are lenient on the tenants because of the inherent power imbalance. They do not have more rights than landlords, the inherent position requires different regulations and limitations to provide something closer to equity. I take it you must be one of them landlords people since it is somehow impossible for you to misunderstand that. It's also weird that you think it's the landlord paying all that money and not the tenants. But whatever.
You have to buy the land from the landlord (the thing you're trying to prop up as super good), the mortgage (the landlord funding the landlord's lordship), property tax is to pay for the society the landlord's land exists in, maintenance on a house is generally pretty cheap - and moreso if you just do it yourself.
God damn, you either don't understand any part of the system and feel like you're a victim or you just want more stuff - everyone else be damned.
Sometimes it’s cheaper to get mortgage then rent but with property taxes and utilities it’s still stupid expensive.
Its crazy how expensive homes have become. Just to have a roof over your head is now considered a luxiry.
We must learn how to BUILD OUR OWN HOMES‼️ or at the very least, buy a foreclosure and repair it bit by bit.
doesn't more of the home price come from the plot of land than the actual house?
Buying a home and buying land is two different things ,
