STS is short for StorytellerStealth-his avatar name which is some type of van. He shows up from time to time and rolls a bunch a crap like those other 2 and disappears for a while

I fear when shit does hit the fan that many will be screwed unnecessarily.
I know several people who overextended during kung flu and have paid a heavy price for it.
That and several have lost houses from eviction pause. Banks still had to get their money.
I know it would have broke me if I had rentals.
People were paying way to much for houses/cars and alot of other stuff that's not worth it not or payments they can't afford IF any downturn hits at all.

It baffles me when they say inflation isn't that bad when alot of items have doubled in price.

I think it was storyteller or stealthteller or something like that.

Pretty certain he got booted over there, as he was almost exclusive here, telling everyone about his every movement every hour.

He was entertaining, but the fact he posted all of his activities made him an annoyance.

You go look it up because I haven't been to the shithole forum in over a year and never plan to go back.

So you got nothing but bullchit and misrepresentation of who I am, what I do, and what I may have posted.

Got it.

Yes you're correct.
Borrowing funds at 2%-5% to purchase RE was/is a horrible decision.


And the poor working stiff who purchased a home at even the top of the market in the early 1990's crash or 2009ish certainly lost their ass long-term.

The report identified the North Port-Sarasota-Bradenton metro area as one of five markets where the likelihood of home price decline was rated "very high" over the next 12 months.

The other five markets identified as having a very high risk of price declines were Provo-Orem, Utah, followed by four Florida markets: Lakeland-Winter Haven, North Port-Sarasota-Bradenton, Cape Coral-Fort Myers and Port St. Lucie.

Keep in mind while FL is not immune from national housing trends, the high percentage of cash buyers and high number of relocations will keep prices a little higher a while longer when compared to other markets, provided demand exceeds inventories.

Bold is correct. And it includes cars and trucks and boats and motorcycles and shoes and steak dinners…etc…etc…etc…

One must be a tightwad douche bag to live so cheap not to enjoy the fruits of his/her labor.

(Assuming “afford” means that a purchase doesn’t affect your family’s financial situation negatively)

Soooo keep paying inflated rents or residing in chitholes then.
Makes a lot of sense.

We have changed from a strong sellers market in 2020-2021 to a buyers market currently. There is some neutrality so I would not say it is a strong buyers market yet. But it’s coming.

I’ve been saying it for a while since last summer you could see the shifting trends. Like open houses that were non existent in the couple years before. And seller financing is again becoming popular (soft market and rising rates will do it). I’ve done two deals this year with seller financing, one a commercial property (very unusual).

Price is again becoming king. I had a new construction home listed at 685 and it sat. He lowered to 665 and it sat. Went to 650 and it sold in a week.
Now same builder I have another at 650 with showings but no contract. Lowered to 639 and still no contract.
Pretty obvious that we are in a soft market.
Two years ago we would have been juggling multiple offers on those new homes.

It is a helluva commitment, I am more of a hotel guy, I did four days in Margaritaville at Lake Lanier, dood dropped off his 40" fifth wheel on the pad, I paid him, left in four days, was easy, was nice, but I could not commit $600+K for a Class A.

Wifey's younger bro bought a new Newmar 45' last year, has a damn dishwasher and full-size fridge, he gets his use out of it, but it does dictate where he will spend his vacations.

RVs, boats, planes, etc... too fancy for me, I will stick with fast cars--American V8s.

We're not quite as "high-end", but I can get it in and out of most parking lots.

This is us, with "toad" attached.



This is us camping.

That's where I am. Camper shell on my 4x4 and off grid. Or a motel or hotel. Did the RV one time for my dad's last trip, and it worked for what we were doing. It was a 24' unit, and I off-roaded it to several secluded sites where we were the only ones around....Alabama Hills, Sequoia NP, eastern Sierras. A lot of clean-up and hassle. Too much for me at this point. We'll see as I get older and more decrepit.

We’re retired and camp in the middle of the week, Fall thru Spring; we stay in state parks mostly. We’re pulling in while most everyone else is leaving. We’ve had stays where we almost the only ones in the park.
