Honestly. Anyone who buys a house as an income property, in this economy… I hope your property remains vacant.

Anyone who flips houses, fuck you, I hope you take losses on every flip.

I know these things won’t happen, but anytime someone is a property owner/landlord, I tend to see them as someone who would rather live off of the labor of others, rather than do literally anything productive. You’re a waste. You’re not helping.

Go die.

And the shitty thing is when this happens they end up pricing people out of cheaper areas. And I don’t fault them at all, it’s exactly what I had to do. But the reason I had to do it was because I got priced out of my own town and couldn’t afford to live there anymore after my hometown got flooded with people looking for cheaper housing. Back in the 80s my parents bought their house for about $50,000. Nowadays that house is worth well over $800,000 with almost half the neighborhood as Airbnbs. And for context, my dad was making $5/hour back in the day while I make $25/hour. I make 5x as much as my dad did back then yet the houses are about 15x times more expensive. And where I grew up a cheap log cabin with an outhouse and no internet is going for $200,000 or more.
