Nah, only fools rent if they can qualify to buy. The house i just bought is a half million dollar investment that will appreciate with time and inflation. I will get 100% back and more. Meanwhile, renters will get 0% back and still pay more. A home mortgage is basically just a aavings account.
I know! Where i live now there is no HOA. If there comes a time I will fight them. My parents lived in this house and they told the HOA people to go to hell. now it's my turn to fight against the evil HOA.

20 years ago I bought the house I'm (still) living in, in a market just like in Trey's routine. I was alone and terrified. Fast forward 20 years, and I've almost completely rebuilt it, courtesy of youTube. Yes, replacing and repairing the roof. Yes. resurfacing the driveway. Yes, creating waterways / ditches / swales in the yard to keep the water out of the basement. Yes to new-construction-type new windows. Yes to to-the-studs new kitchen. Almost the same with the bathroom. The most help I had was someone to assist me carrying out the 1980's all-in-one kitchen cabinets which weighed TONS. Moral of the Story. . . .

Once I hit my late 20s I started hiring movers. It's just easier and worth it. Pack the stuff yourself, maybe do smaller loads yourself but anything that requires help I recommend just paying for other people to do it.
Yeah, that's all stuff that would be in my personal car and could be done alone. Packing is easy. Moving boxes sucks. Same rules apply to checked luggage - if it's valuable and easily misplaced you need to carry it on with you.
Hubby and I did the exact same thing, its much easier to just point and command someone to move your stuff instead of doing it yourself. Way easier on your back and joints.
Greatest lies ever told: -Thou wilt not surely die. -No honey, that does not make you look fat. -We’ll have everything packed up, you’ll just need to load it on to the moving truck!
I actually did have everything packed up and barely had anything to move, do I get a cookie? Lol. But it was my first house and bought it right before the pandemic.

Good luck. You can make it happen, but if it makes you feel any better, you’re not alone. This is an incredibly difficult market to be a first time home buyer in.

That part about closing in 2 months and lease ending in less time is so accurate. I’m so happy my mom was my agent bc she went above and beyond. However, those inspections don’t help enough. All furniture is never available when you need it. We bought right before covid and there was still delays in shipments.
Oh man, moving day was a nightmare! I remember both of us looking at each other tearing up, it was endless, things just keep turning up! Thanks to the moving people calming us down and pushing us to finish it in one day 😅😂

Haha, I'm an unemployed 24 year old with a Master's degree who's living with her parents! Hahahahahah.. ...I just want to have an apartment, man, it doesn't even need to be good...
“The apartment was $1200 a month” Me: *looking around at my $2300/month one bedroom with a broken shower and windows that don’t open* Why did YOU MOVE?!
@Kathleen Ramirez. Texas isn’t the only place with (relatively) cheap rent. I rent a three bedroom, two bathroom with an office and detached garage for $1200. Granted, the median wage around here is less than you would make in the city but I’ll take it over a cramped city apartment.
In the process of moving this week - 11 weeks in escrow purgatory, electrical & water problems already, but hey! We closed! Committed to 30 years of ungodly payments after spending only a half hour on the property 3 months ago, it was "Make an offer or it will be gone", $30K over the appraisal...... Trey was right on and hysterical.
I went through this whole scenario when getting into our house! Trey you are always on point with your videos! I love the parts where you showed frustration and tears! Ahhhhhh, such sweet memories!!
I'm moving in October. It's about time for a 3br/2.5ba. And if I(for some reason) decide I still want a condo, I always have one that my dad bought and is renting out lol
I've been taking on the responsibility of my parents house that was built in the 50's half the appliances are broken the house is held together by duct tape and spite. But hey we have a yard... that I have to cut in 90+ degrees and is overgrown. Having a house is just constant work and just dealing with broken stuff.
I got a job as a maintenance man solely so the DIY step wasn't as stressful. Just framed a wall in my den and put in a ceiling this week.. gotta say I'm glad I made that move
as a homeowner, a bit of trolling advice: If you're renting, and your friends with houses keep telling you you're wasting money, ask them what their amortization schedule is.
@@jenniferbates2811 Bought a house last year and moved out of my apartment, I can 100% never go back to an apartment, the freedom you get with your own home is just unbeatable. The only difference in payment wise is that when you buy a house, the fees and stuff are extrapolated out with trash and utilities and whatnot, with apartments it's all built into the renting price, my mortgage is also cheaper than my apartment was. Also, you can do both. I don't know why you can't do both? Who taught you money? If you can buy a house comfortably, 100% buy a house, you can still get an IRA/retirement started. I'm editing this to say, the biggest advantage is how much your credit improves when you buy a house, if you maintain your payments and don't miss them, your credit SKYROCKETS, leading to a better financial situation all around, but like I said before, DO NOT buy a house if you can't comfortably afford the monthly payments and possible upkeep. Also, like with apartments, tons of research is needed.
It's not that I'm not financially intelligent. I miss the freedom of an apartment. Even with a fixed rate mortgage. Taxes go up every year, property taxes, fire taxes utilities...etc. So you really never "own" your house. Even if you bought your house outright, if you can't pay the property taxes the city takes your house. It's different for everyone. Enjoy your home 🏡💙.
I look at owning a house like rent that I will eventually get some refund on. Renting is easier, and I did it for a long time. But I like the idea of SOME of the many thousands of dollars I spent coming back to me.
Yeah but rent goes up every year also and depending on what state you live in you can be paying more to rent over the long haul than buying. Mortgages end at some point.
@@zachbonebrake352 I hear you though. Got a house one year ago and the homeowners insurance and car insurance went up so I raised the deductibles on both. To keep them both roughly the same.
Me too since June 2020 and then when we finally find our home of our dreams my husband gets laid off due to petroleum industry doing bad due to covid.

All furniture is never available when you need it. We bought right before covid and there was still delays in shipments.
Why is no one questioning his 'Dad and boujee' pillow? lol
I know, right?! Lol
That had me dying
Lol 😂 I did haha
Like, what does that even mean? What is the story behind it? And...why? So many questions.
I just accepted it as something he would definitely own.
Oh man, moving day was a nightmare! I remember both of us looking at each other tearing up, it was endless, things just keep turning up! Thanks to the moving people calming us down and pushing us to finish it in one day 😅😂
And this is why I'm glad I'm a minimalist, currently renting, but when I moved in, I only did one trip of moving, then again where I live in it was already furnished so, yeah!
"I know it's a fixer-upper, but honey it'll be a nice bonding experience, we'll put in a offer!"
And that my friends was Chip and Joanna's origin story
The most accurate UA-cam sketch in history.
Closed on our house a month ago. Doesn’t feel like we’ve made any progress 😩 and I never wanna see paint again. Drain after drain clogs and needs replaced. Hopefully we can relax on a weekend soon.
Until you finished, fam: I congratulate you on your home purchase.
At least you painted. Haven't even gotten there & don't want to think about it lol
@@nicolegreene2208 thank you!
@@Beetrice The walls were bad 😬 Previous owner was a smoker it seems
Closed on a house 2 years ago and I don’t feel like I’ve made any progress! I absolutely hate paint as well! I’ve come to the realization that I won’t be completed with all my DIYs until I’m retired, that’s when I’ll get to come home and finally have nothing to do!
“You can’t wait to start a family in this house? Look at how many weeds are in the yard! I can’t fertilize the yard let alone you”
Oh my fricking gods yes!!!
“You’re going to make 15-20 Grand to send a DocuSign?!?” Hahaha!!! Sums up realtors!!!
The inspection "just a fun way to find out how badly you screwed up"!!!!! Best line ever
Haha, I'm an unemployed 24 year old with a Master's degree who's living with her parents! Hahahahahah..
...I just want to have an apartment, man, it doesn't even need to be good...
most cities have 1 bedroom apartments for like $600/month
What your degree in?
I've lived in the same apartment for over ten years. When people ask me why, I tell them how first cheap my rent is. They get it then. 😂
Alyssa Hayes, any apartment for $600 a month in any city doesn't sound good for a 24 year old female lol
A decent place to live is at least $1,000
Sad
Trey has taught me more about life than life itself. Amen.
“The apartment was $1200 a month”
Me: *looking around at my $2300/month one bedroom with a broken shower and windows that don’t open* Why did YOU MOVE?!
He lives in a LCOL area. You probably live is a HCOL area and get paid more. Anyways hopefully you can get a place that is cheaper for you 🙂
$1200 per month are Texas apartment prices. Literally anywhere else is going to be higher cost.
@@kathleenramirez2379 Howdy! Another Texan here!
@Kathleen Ramirez. Texas isn’t the only place with (relatively) cheap rent. I rent a three bedroom, two bathroom with an office and detached garage for $1200. Granted, the median wage around here is less than you would make in the city but I’ll take it over a cramped city apartment.
@@wdwgirl9206 Yes. Like we mentioned if LCOL areas 🙂 I am applying you're enjoying your apartment!
That time in between when you close on the house and when the lease is up is a BEAST
Just moved in to my new house this weekend. 100% accurate.
Congratulations on your new house 😊
🏠
Congrats
In the process of moving this week - 11 weeks in escrow purgatory, electrical & water problems already, but hey! We closed! Committed to 30 years of ungodly payments after spending only a half hour on the property 3 months ago, it was "Make an offer or it will be gone", $30K over the appraisal...... Trey was right on and hysterical.
As someone working in real estate, this couldn't have been more true!
Me: *laughs nervously in renter*
I went through this whole scenario when getting into our house! Trey you are always on point with your videos! I love the parts where you showed frustration and tears! Ahhhhhh, such sweet memories!!
You just made me feel SO much better about signing another years lease on my apartment..Thanks Trey! 👍🏼
Literally me
I'm moving in October. It's about time for a 3br/2.5ba. And if I(for some reason) decide I still want a condo, I always have one that my dad bought and is renting out lol
We just renewed our lease 🤣
Exactly! 😂
As a landlord, another round of thanks :D
The fixed mortgage joke got me lol
Wow I actually think I don’t want a house anymore after this lmaooo
"Look at how many weeds are in the yard, if I can't fertilize the yard I can't fertilize you!" IM DYING🤣🤣🤣
I've been taking on the responsibility of my parents house that was built in the 50's half the appliances are broken the house is held together by duct tape and spite. But hey we have a yard... that I have to cut in 90+ degrees and is overgrown. Having a house is just constant work and just dealing with broken stuff.
Thank you! I’ve been wondering how in the world my elderly parent’s 50’s house is still standing, it’s the spite!!
At least you have one. Your house would probably sell for over 500k cash where I live.
"Having a house is just constant work and just dealing with broken stuff." Yes 100%
As someone currently in the process of buying my first home and closing in two weeks this was insanely accurate and sad.
The last 11 years have been a litany of DIY projects. I feel for ya. It only took a decade to get my home how I want it to be. Cheers Trey!
I got a job as a maintenance man solely so the DIY step wasn't as stressful. Just framed a wall in my den and put in a ceiling this week.. gotta say I'm glad I made that move
Oh my gosh, we are going through this right now. So relatable!!!!
"This DYI is turning into DUI pretty quick, both are..horrible choices. Get a carpenter and an uber."
GOLD 😂
“I can barely fertilize the yard let alone you.” I died a little
"Yeah just ask the landlord, he'll fix it-"
*sudden terror*
My Alexa on my tablet responded when Trey was speaking to his Alexa 😂
as a homeowner, a bit of trolling advice: If you're renting, and your friends with houses keep telling you you're wasting money, ask them what their amortization schedule is.
Lol
My mother is a realtor. This is called, "Accurate".
Vibes are up is officially on repeat until summer ends. Thanks Trey!
Suddenly my apartment doesn’t seem so bad lol 😂
Thanks for the educational video!
So close to 1 million! Let’s get Trey to 1 million! Go go go
Gosh this hit home
Me: a dumb dumb renter.
Also me: yes, this resonates.
Being a renter is sooo much easier! Get your IRA started instead of buying a house!
@@jenniferbates2811 Bought a house last year and moved out of my apartment, I can 100% never go back to an apartment, the freedom you get with your own home is just unbeatable. The only difference in payment wise is that when you buy a house, the fees and stuff are extrapolated out with trash and utilities and whatnot, with apartments it's all built into the renting price, my mortgage is also cheaper than my apartment was. Also, you can do both. I don't know why you can't do both? Who taught you money? If you can buy a house comfortably, 100% buy a house, you can still get an IRA/retirement started.
I'm editing this to say, the biggest advantage is how much your credit improves when you buy a house, if you maintain your payments and don't miss them, your credit SKYROCKETS, leading to a better financial situation all around, but like I said before, DO NOT buy a house if you can't comfortably afford the monthly payments and possible upkeep. Also, like with apartments, tons of research is needed.
It's not that I'm not financially intelligent. I miss the freedom of an apartment. Even with a fixed rate mortgage. Taxes go up every year, property taxes, fire taxes utilities...etc.
So you really never "own" your house. Even if you bought your house outright, if you can't pay the property taxes the city takes your house.
It's different for everyone. Enjoy your home 🏡💙.
I look at owning a house like rent that I will eventually get some refund on. Renting is easier, and I did it for a long time. But I like the idea of SOME of the many thousands of dollars I spent coming back to me.
@@SirenEyeMedia I can understand that. Let's hope the market stays strong.
I love it. Thank you.
"A fun was to see if you screwed up". Yep, pretty much defines an inspection!
I feel this has been more educational about buying a house than anything I have found.
I can't wait for the Girls in the Summer video
I live in South Africa..still so relatable.
Also congrats on 1 mil subscribers.
Trey has done it again ladies and gentlemen 👏👏👏
We just bought a house last fall so I understand this so well! The house hunting part is spot on! lol
Another banger From Trey Kennedy himself
“Just do not expect the owners to fix anything or you will loose the house” literally so true
Yay! Another vid! So hyped!
‘Pretty ironic we have a fixed mortgage but everything is fricking broken’ I DIED 🤣🤣
This hurts my entire soul. This depicts our first time buying a house perfectly.
I can sooo relate!! Our realtor was the worst & didn't even get us a crappy gift😂! She just got her completely undeserved commission check & bounced
"I can't fertilize the house, let alone YOU"
NO- PLS!!- GSJJSY😭😭😭😭🤚🏾
Going through underwriting and appraisal phase now. I'm so tired of house shopping lmao. This is sooooo relatable 🤣.
I'm at the stage where I'm annoyed that my monthly payment increases every year because of increasing taxes and whatever the heck else.
Yeah but rent goes up every year also and depending on what state you live in you can be paying more to rent over the long haul than buying. Mortgages end at some point.
@@STMARTIN009 Totally agree with you.
@@zachbonebrake352 I hear you though. Got a house one year ago and the homeowners insurance and car insurance went up so I raised the deductibles on both. To keep them both roughly the same.
It's 5am and I am lying here in bed laughing so hard trying not to wake my husband. This is true and truly hilarious. Can't stop laughing! 🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣❤
Lmao literally been looking since august 2020 it’s been hell I needed this
Laugh
Me too since June 2020 and then when we finally find our home of our dreams my husband gets laid off due to petroleum industry doing bad due to covid. I was very heartbroken now my husband has another job and we want to try to look for a house again and I'm to scare to try again I give up. I'm scared of something happening again and we dont get to buy a house again.😢
Wow, your area must be rough then. It’s never taken us longer than 2 weeks.
@@CornFed_3 I dare you to try again now in this market
@@stillfoufou, where I currently live, it’s absolutely possible. The only delay would be in having the house built on the lot I chose.
Omg we just bought a house and THIS. ALL OF IT. So true, can’t even begin.
“remember how we got this house with a bad foundation, well I think this is a bad foundation for uS”
I thought he was about to ask Alexa when trash day is😂
This is too true. My husband has gone through these stages. He wanted to “get a trailer for our stuff, move into an apartment, flip & sell” with our 2nd child on the way after the 1st year.🤦🏽♀️
Sometimes you just have to chill out, count your blessings & remember why you settled for your home in the first place (for us, school district!)😅
Literally never clicked so fast
As someone who just bought their first house, this is extremely accurate 😂
"I can't fertilized the yard, let alone you" lol
We closed last week... this hits home pretty hard!
