    Because interest rates are insane trapping people in homes they no longer want but can’t afford to leave?

    I’m in this comment and I don’t like it.

      Least you got a home. I am on a very long lease and landlord is getting offers. I got about 2.5 years until someone just offers him a million bucks in cash. Then I am out thousands of dollars in moving expense plus changing my kids school. Plan to fight it but I am sure I will lose.

        Sorry bro.

        Try to own property as quickly as you can. Unfortunately, even the market for that has gone to shit thanks to investment companies.

        This is what we get for breeding for greed. Gotta stop rewarding shitbags just because they have money and start holding them accountable for how they got it.

        It won’t happen, though, lol. These problems won’t get solved just like global warming 🤷. We don’t want to solve them.
