Cancel Rents and Mortgages[W:280]

Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Same way it did when the Japanese were buying America, before running home clipped out of $billions.

The largest foreign landlord groups in the US are the British, Germans, Dutch and French. Are you a member of the Anti-Chinese League, the Naturalists? One of those anti-papist guys who doesn't want anymore Irish or Italian immigrants? The First Nations want you evicted from their country.
There was no answer in this rambling post. How does letting Chinese oligarchs buy our property and rent it out help Americans?
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Here's an idea: if you're losing money then sell the property!

And I notice you still haven't answered my question.

With low rents who will buy, who will provide mortgages?
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Yawn. Typical BS excuses from those who think they're entitled to charge tenants as much as they can and delude themselves into thinking that they're doing society a favor.

Your posts sound more like typical BS from someone with 2 kids that cant afford to buy a house. Ooops.

Thats the thing though, ace...Im not the one making excuses. Thats YOU.

SO IT IS moms basement then? Hey man...I dont blame you. I dont fault you. I just hope you 1-appreciate the hell out of it and 2-use this time to build yourself a foundation that will actually let you rise up and take better care of both yourself and your kids. You have this **** all twisted...Im not bothered by people like you. I have nothing but hope for you. I'm your number one cheerleader.

Current home prices aren't some fixed law of nature. They're bid up by mortgage lenders and speculators. What do you think would happen to home prices if rents fell?

Yes, real assholes we heads of families. I want a decent home at a decent price for my family? How inconceivable!
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Do you consider spending 50% of your income on rent AFFORDABLE?

No, I value my quality of life more and work hard to not be in that position.

So some suggestions are: dont have 2 kids before you can afford a home, if that's what you want. Move somewhere cheaper. Develop job skills that will pay more. Graduate High School with an actual, practical plan. Etc. etc. etc.

I'm not responsible for your poor choices in timing of reproduction, job skills, location, etc etc etc.

I see you are just a victim tho...who had no control over those things :doh

"Number one cheerleader" as long as the tenant keeps paying the rent. Once he misses a payment he's out to the curb.

I should just tell my kids that I'd be better off with them dead?
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

If all a man has the capacity to do is bus tables, and bussing tables doesn't pay the rent, then he has no choice but to live on the street.
You do know that a large percentage of wait staff are just passing through on their way to better paying jobs, right? That's why so many are young.

:lamo

Dood you LITERALLY know nothing about me and how we treat our people. Theres a REASON why I have never had a problem finding and keeping tenants.

Gee zus...you whine more than a basket of puppies. Apparently some landlord must have done you wrong. Thats a shame. But seriously...what do you see as your 'way forward'...bitching and moaning about what you DONT have and cant achieve, or manning the **** up?

That's not the example I presented. Should the man who can't do anything else really have no other option than spending half of his income on rent? His existence should be no better than barely scraping by, at the precipice of bankruptcy? Utterly without hope if he's injured?

Because they have no other choice. You can keep going around thinking that your farts smell like roses because your tenants kiss your ass. They're only doing that because the only other option is homelessness.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Why not just tell them you regret having them because you cant afford them or the house you want more than them?
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Did I not kiss enough ass to your liking?

Not at all. It is simply very clear that you are antagonistic to anyone who would be your employer. You have a victim complex where you feel everyone is screwing you over and thus justifying your infantile temper tantrums.

Current home prices aren't some fixed law of nature. They're bid up by mortgage lenders and speculators. What do you think would happen to home prices if rents fell?

This is, as with everything else you say, false. Home prices are primarily moved by regular ole people buying houses, and the immutable laws of supply and demand.

I stopped reading this thread after post 13. The ignorance and whining was insulting my intelligence, even tho I'm not that smart. Stop crying and blaming others for your inadequacies.

I raised four with my wife. We both worked and provided well for our family. I now have 4 high achieving adult children, 16 grandchildren and one great grandchild. I am one of those wealthy you envy and hate. Too bad I will not share what I sweated for with you, hey? With partners I own more than 400 commercial buildings, and continue to prosper from the rents. You will not get one thin dime of that money. Too bad for you. I own only one residential building, the one I have lived in for more than 40 years, where my wife and I raised our children. A rent stabilized building where very few of my tenants know I am the owner. The tenants are thrilled to live in this building, almost 100 years old, meticulously cared for, reasonable rents, not a single violation other than a broken exit sign light in the basement during those 36 years I have owned the building. You can't live here, I will not rent you a home here. Too bad. So it goes. No guaranteed life will be fair.

You have a choice, you can work 18 hour days like I did, and sweat, or continue to whine and cry. Your choice. I won't be bothered reading your silly rants any further. Not worth my time.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Do you consider spending 50% of your income on rent AFFORDABLE?

I personally don't, but some might. Depends on whether you want a larger home or a newer car.

But I see two possible solutions. Increase your income or reduce your living arrangements.

Or you could whine that it must be somebody else's fault.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Because they have no other choice. You can keep going around thinking that your farts smell like roses because your tenants kiss your ass. They're only doing that because the only other option is homelessness.

That’s right....that’s the gig. You buy a home,rent a home, live with mom, or go homeless.

Choose.

Practically speaking no one renting or selling homes is going to lower there price to the point that man will be able to afford it.
 
Re: Cancel Rents and Mortgages

Oh cool! So workers get a few thousand while businesses who made their owners millionaires and billionaires get billions! What a country!
LOL, You do know those millionaires and billionaires provide jobs for millions of people and pay millions in taxes to help take care of your poor, slow, busboys. right?

Supply and demand can easily be shifted by taxing rents like ordinary income and gutting landlord tax deductions.

I like the option of voting for politicians and policies that will make people like you live in a ditch.

I guess he's ****ed, then. Your view is disgusting.
