You aren't doing the thing you are suggesting someone else do then? You could still buy a rental property and have it paid off by the time you retire if you up the payments just a bit, you aren't that old. It doesn't sound like OP is in a much different situation, as I think he recently changed careers too iirc(?). |

My wife and I have been looking at land on and off for a couple of years now with an eye on it being our potential retirement location. If it were possible for us to buy something and then lease/rent it out and have someone else pay for the yearly taxes and small bank note we are planning to carry on it that would be fantastic. Raw land is a bit harder to do that with outside of maybe a hunting lease. But with todays litigious society I doubt the risks would be offset by the potential income. |

I remember hearing about someone leasing a few acres of field to a farmer. That could be a possibility if it's the right land and zoning. Or logging. |

Isn't BlackRock buying a bunch of single-family homes and renting them out? I see a lot of force pulling supply down while demand is heating up

Meanwhile in China they are building empty apartment buildings just to artificially keep up their ailing GDP. Ironic part is 2nd and 3rd homebuying is starting to outpace 1st time home buyers. You would think communism would be more fair but apparently their rich/poor divide is worse. I guess it's only good on paper. Sorry if this is a semi-politcal statement or philosophy but it seems to me like no matter who you are or what country you are from the free market is the best market. No matter how we try to manipulate them (even with the best intentions) it always comes back to bite us when we do. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

A crash is unlikely. People are not overextended on high-interest-rate debt like they were before the last crash. The housing market is high because there's a lot of money floating around looking for a place to rest, and there's not a lot of inventory compared to the need for housing.

Another think driving the housing market is large companies scooping up cheaper houses to then rent out. They're both pricing the low end peeps out of the market and then driving up their rents. It's a classic capitalist fuckjob. If a crash does come, it will be because the people who rent these homes end up refusing to pay, the math goes badly for these companies, and they end up bankrupt and sending large numbers of homes into foreclosure. The question is, are these companies buying enough of the market to cause widespread issues?

here in idaho, with all the cash buyers coming in from other states, and a lot of small cities and towns (like mine) putting moratoriums on new building to try to slow down growth, inventory is very low. Prices just keep climbing fast. My house here has gone up 78% since I bought 2 years ago. Crazy.
