Home Buying & Real Estate Thread

[capital sb]

I really think the easiest waty to start absorbing the BP info is through the podcast they break everything down so someone with zero knowledge will understand. Start by listening on your drive to and from work, I would knock out 2-3 a day and relisten to the important ones.

Lucky I feel you, 9-5 isn't for me. Too much money to be made through your own businesses and I want financial freedom.

I love listening to BP's podcasts when I'm driving or running on a treadmill. Their guests are everyday people who started from
nothing and thru hard work, reached their goal. It seriously lights a fire in myself when I hear their stories and it pushes me to do more.

This is exactly what I been doing in the gym. Just soaking up whatever I can get.

Same age and I feel you 100%

I gave myself to the age of 40 when I first started working but after really focusing on my future I dont think I can last that long.

Over the past year while I was saving for my current home I learned a lot about myself. Its amazing how much I was willing to sacrifice for what I wanted when before I couldn't imagine giving certain things up. If i knew what I know now 10 years ago when I left HS I would be so much further along.I dont want to be saying the same things 10 years from now so im ive really been trying to push myself this year and hopefully it works out.

yea, the thing with a lot of young people is many of us are first gen "people that made it" so you dont have a blueprint to go off of on what moves to make to CREATE GENERATIONAL WEALTH. We get caught up in getting good jobs but you cant pass down a good job to your kid. Real Estate isn't going to be my main focus, but its impossible to become truly wealthy without owning land that generates income. And at the end of the day land will always have value even if the dollar is worthless.

Repped


Human beings will always need shelter.

This thread has got me intrigued about Bay Area pricing

How can the median rent be $4500 if the median income is $84k. That is going to backfire so bad

You didn't miss it. It's not on until 5 Pacific/8 EST. Thinking about tuning in, if I'm free at that time. 

I've been lurking in here since I need to get my money right before making any moves. I appreciate all the knowledge being shared in here. Flourish NT fam.

The way you typed that made it sound normal, and I guess if you're from that area it's seen as normal thing. But paying $1800 a month to be someones roommate sounds insane, and that probably explains why Houston, Dallas, and Austin are the fastest growing cities in the us.

 

[Proposition Joe]

Speaking of Dallas and Houston, all you dudes with major capital better come down here and hop on this cheap property while it's cheap

 

[datznasty]

I was looking at Dallas hotpads a few hours ago, found a 2nd floor 3,000 sq ft 5 bed 3 bath for like $1800. Meanwhile out to the left, kats are paying that same amount to have a roommate in a large walk in closet sized apartment and still be 30 minutes away from work.

I have a lady friend who is an agent for KW in Dallas and she asked me to come down to check out some investment properties. Only downfall I see is Texas ranks top 3 in the nation in highest property taxes.

Property taxes are insane here.
