Because landlords get locked onto peak summer rental rates, and fail to understand how swift moving the rental market is, it’s extremely common for homes that didn’t rent in early August to still be on the market in December, but 15-25% lower. That’s 3+ months of avoidable vacancy (about $5k in these examples, as of now),plus as shown a $200 discount or $2400 in year 1. Grand total = $7,500 to find out that fall isn’t summer in rental housing. Unfortunately, it happens every year for my 20+ year career, often to the same people over and over. This isn’t investment it’s a pet project driven by bias.

Buying A Home Is Becoming Much More Expensive Than Renting One The extra costs that homebuyers take on to access these benefits - has been growing quickly. But the rental market is unquestionably cooling, and as a result more families are revisiting the "buy or rent" decision.

The costs associated with homeownership -- beyond just the listing price -- are increasing rapidly

What this image shows is that for rental investors the "rent" is practically just a subsidy while you hold a hard asset in the face of deep devaluation of the US dollar. Holding the asset is the investment (backwards from how it should be due to govt policies), the rent is just a bonus. To be fair, a lot of investors bought cheap homes on cheap blocks and they will often find themselves in bad shape but for smart purchases it's almost impossible to lose these days. That's complicated by our expectation that corporate bailouts (not housing) that will dwarf 2008 are just around the corner.

If You Want to Get Rich, Rent DON’T BUY? Or At Least Don't Assume You Have To Without Doing the Math.

This is a fascinating take and certainly brings up some great points, but in 2025 we think owning a quality home of any kind is likely to be a great idea as inventory dwindles. Particularly for homes with timeless charm and unique characteristics and some land associated with them it would be hard to go wrong as an owner.
