You can’t rent a one-bedroom apartment anywhere in America on a minimum-wage job

I wasn't making much in retail or fast food (that's why I was living at home), so granny just told me to help buy food

I'd gladly give her my check sans bus fare and lunch money but she was nice enough to just expect food money

 

Even if you are a professional...good job.

I prefer living alone....cause i want to have women/woman come in/out without question.

But if i lived with family....im gonna do it anyway cause i just dont give a fuck.

My logic is im a grown ass man and im paying bills too, soooooo.

Lol.


Again at the end if the day....its about money.

Now my friend, him and his wife has his mom with him....shes up in age and hes the only child

 

Yeah right

My grown ass dad always lived with his mom and she made SURE he played ball, regardless how many bills he paid

The house was in her name and she didn't play that whores comin in and out, loud ass music, coming home @ 2am shit, etc lol

 

Lol..... im getting ass boss

 

I smashed at my parents house often when I was a teen. Don't think they would expect any different if I lived with them now, maybe a steady girlfriend for a change.

Only problem I had is when my dad wanted me to keep certain women, or thought I was doing some of them wrong when they picked up my homies for me ect.

All I knew at the time was partying and getting fucked up. Working my little job and banging the co-workers.

 

Other than the presence of the parental units, that sounds like an ideal existence for a young man.

 

It was pretty cool for the most part, except for the times my old man knew I was fucked up. lol

 

Lol. Awesome

 

D'oh!

 

Ball so hard that shit crazy

 

Way I see it...we are born to die

May as well have some fun in between

 

Zillow recently published a study that shows the price of leases creeping up around the U.S Between January 2014 and January 2015, rents increased an average of 3.3 percent. 72 percent of markets experienced some kind of rental growth in that time.

While the Bay Area continues to top the list, there are some up-and-coming hotspots that, once affordable, are seeing climbing prices.

Here are the cities with the largest increases this year:

1. San Francisco, CA, up 14.9%

2. San Jose, CA, up 13.4%

3. Denver, CO, up 10.2%

4. Kansas City, MO, up 8.5%

5. Nashville, NT, up 7.9%

6. Birmingham, AL, up 7.6%

7. Portland, OR, up 7.2%

8. Austin, TX, up 7.0%

9. Charlotte, NC, up 6.1%

10. Hartford, CT, up 6.0%

Tracking the movement of millennials also shows some correlation with rising rents. A comparison between the top cities for rising rent and the counties attracting the most millennials shows crossover in Denver, Nashville, Portland, and San Francisco, among other cities.

Prices have climbed so high and so rapidly in many places, more than twice as fast as incomes since 2000, that it’s become cheaper to buy than it is to rent.

Good old gentrification. Makes you wonder what the next real estate gimmick will be when the supply of hipsters dries up.

 

Move back to farm lands?
If I could figure out the infrastructure problem that's what I want to do.

 

The next real estate boom has already started. It's retirement housing and assisted living facilities. The demand will continue to increase (at a huge rate!) for many years to come. We are just barely starting to see the beginning in the increase in demand.

 

Another very new trend is building communities of rental homes. Sortof like apartment complexes only they are homes in fully maintained communities.

 

Thanks for the investment tip. Now to find the right REIT.

 

Yah you'll have to do your own research on that. It shouldn't be too difficult though.

(And remember where you got the tip!)

 

I should thank you too. I be looking into it as well.
