Are religions a theory?
When all you’re left with is talking about another man’s junk, spelling, no one really believes a thing you type and everyone is laughing AT YOU. You’re the joke.Yet the joke is on me?
What’s with the apostrophe after ole, birthinghips? The correct way to write it is ol’ or ole. The apostrophe shows a letter has been omitted, you f’ckin’ retard.Ohh, the ole’ “he uses photoshop to create fake checks” theory!
And that’s absolutely true. Unsolicited as well. Nevertheless...
Honestly though...the argument of how much property A vs property B costs or is worth is an apples and oranges comparison. A home that appraises for $1MM+ in California would only appraise for $400M+ in WV, and the discrepancy is the same regarding cost to build. That’s an unwinnable argument for you. There are very basic, small, mediocre houses in California that cost over $1MM that most Americans wouldn’t give half that for.
Sure could. How do you think that would turn out for you?
You're still salty that you looked like a fool incorrectly arguing "were" vs. "was" last week, huh, Middle Class Murox?What’s with the apostrophe after ole, birthinghips? The correct way to write it is ol’ or ole. The apostrophe shows a letter has been omitted, you f’ckin’ retard.
You would if you wanted equity.

No, smart business people don't live in California. They live in Florida(TX, TN) . They might own property there but they don't live there.Don't bring intelligence into this discussion. They couldn't build equity since they can't afford the properties to begin with. It's why those that can, live in California. Those that can't, live in West Virginia.
You're greatly simplifying how state income tax and residences work. Take it from somebody who has a property in Florida and who can claim that about half of his work is done in a state with no income tax.No, smart business people don't live in California.

Vicodin and Ambien?Now a lot of pro golfers live in Florida. Yes, weather. But, there is another reason.
Still doesn’t work. Check out why Derek Jeter lost that argument vs. the state of NY and why entertainers can’t avoid paying income taxes when they perform in different states.183 Day Rule for State Residency in Florida
Under the rule, the taxing states require that a person looking to declare residency in Florida must reside in Florida for at least 183 days (in other words, one day more than six months).

Now let's return to reality. I'm building structures for cost that are apprising for twice my investment while birthinghips is buying imaginary property at retail. I built 6 townhouses in 2022 (and 4 under construction now) that appraised for $288,000 each. My loan is $480,000 over 15 years at 4%. Birthinghips' imaginary house was purchased at the top of the housing bubble and AT BEST has retained it's purchase value.If I took the same job I do now in DC, Charlotte or Orlando, my pay would immediately be bumped to fit the new market’s pay scale. Heck, I can afford it currently.
And you do realize that if you and @murox made the exact same payment on separate houses similar to what we have been discussing, that murox would gain equity at a much faster pace. Murox’s amortization would be much shorter and he would be on to the next house by the time you were 1/4 finished paying for your first one. He would end up with twice the equity in his properties to show for the same money spent.
Example:
Rifle gets a $1,000,000 loan for 30 years at 7% (that’s prime today) in California. Payment would be $6,653/month.
Murox gets a $500,000 loan at 7% in WV. It would only take a little over 8 years at $6,653/month to pay off that home.
Murox could wash, rinse and repeat almost 4 times in the same amount of time you are paying on one home. He now has 4 properties worth $2 million and you have 1 home worth $1 million.
And let’s say murox could only afford a $4,500 payment. Well...he pays on that one for 15 years and matches your equity, while paying $25,000 less per year to do it.
So...either way you slice it, you’re dead wrong. So is @johns1124 .
@big_country90, What do you think of Dave Ramsey's suggestion to take a 15-year mortgate and pay it off in 10?
And, don't defer your payments during covid. Cough coughIf you’re disciplined enough to actually pay the 10 year payment when you’re only obligated to pay a 15 year payment, then it’s great advice.
Wait, so first you're arguing that if you lived in a more expensive area, you'd make more money as part of your argument.If I took the same job I do now in DC, Charlotte or Orlando, my pay would immediately be bumped to fit the new market’s pay scale. Heck, I can afford it currently.

. . . let me guess, you had them appraised yesterday at the lowest of housing prices over the last three years, huh? Moron.I built 6 townhouses in 2022 (and 4 under construction now) that appraised for $288,000 each.
First, I never made that claim. So when you try to boast about something, don't suddenly try concluding with a comment that makes it look like something I said justified you boasting, moron. Dumb and a liar . . . such a bad combination, which also is how you got caught cheating by your wife. Dumb and a liar.Absolute clown. Tell me more about how investing in CA is smarter than investing in WV, dork.
If you are not paid the same since your example lives in a lower cost of living area, it's illogical for you to then claim they are making the same mortgage payment
What John Stephens argued was correct: assuming person A and person B have the same rate, same % down, same term, and person A has a mortgage twice as much as person B, person A will build more equity
No. Not really. You're always good for a great laugh. It's hilarious that you've become the board punching bag.
Also if you google Derek Jeter he comes upWell Jeter played for the Yankees. Kid of hard to win that argument when baseball season runs April through October.
Also thar why NY is running people away.
You do realize that that there are plenty of people in WV that can afford a $1 million loan, right? I make far more than the median income, as does murox. I can afford it now, much less if I move to a big city.
OK… Let’s see what happens in that scenario. Rather than building equity at four times the pace as you, murox will simply bank hundreds of thousands of dollars because his mortgage payment was so much lower than yours. Now, your net worth is the same (at best) , but his is predominantly liquid and yours is in real estate. Who’s better off?
Of course you would build more equity in a more expensive house if you both paid the exact term and the exact same interest rate. The point, though, is that if you both made the same payment, murox’s equity will accelerate at a much, much faster pace. Math is hard for you, I know, but it doesn’t lie. Same payment for both of you or same repayment term, he wins every time.
Now, go back and look at what Stephens posted and what you contested: not if he wants to build equity.
The comment, Big Dummy, was about building equity. Nothing more, nothing less. You said that both of us were wrong with his statement; which is false.
Why is it so hard for you lifelong West Virginian educated hillbillies to follow an argument?
I purchased one property in November '21. I purchased the second in late December '21. The market continued to climb for the next 6-8 months, and in my area, they climbed higher for another month or two due to the abundance of cash buyers who aren't impacted by increased rates and the sheer lack of housing in my small town which is a very desired place for families to live.
Add housing market ignorance to the list of things professionals have had to explain to birthinghips the tax cheat.What you’re not mentioning though is the volatility of your market. You better hope that you sell at a high point if you ever do sell. There are too many high and low swings in markets like California. That doesn’t happen in West Virginia. You have a much larger chance of your home’s value dropping significantly than we do, ever.

And not taking the market into account is ignorance. You can build a Mansion in the ghetto, but the value is just going to drop.You are both wrong, and I proved it. Not sure why you keep arguing otherwise, other than it’s just your nature. If you make the exact same payment every month with your loan being double the amount as his, murox would build twice the equity as you over the exact same period. Those are indisputable facts. I just threw in the other scenario for fun. Either way, you’re both wrong.

Rifle just bought. The key is what kind of property and where? Residential has not been a good time to buy lately. High prices and it is going to slide downward now. Comercial or rentals my be a different story. But, itnerest rates are high. Just depends.And not taking the market into account is ignorance.

NY and CA are usually not synonymous with radical housing market swings.
The key phrase is: "Since Respective peak". The So. Cal relative peak was in the '80s and early '90s. It's been on a slow upclimb since then. Is it growing at a rate like it was back then? No. Is it declining to the point of concern? Definitely Not.

But that wasn't the discussion! Christ, your inability to follow a basic discussion is mind-blowing.You are both wrong, and I proved it.

So a market that has basically appreciated at the same rate of inflation is a better investment than one that has appreciated 2x? Brilliant. And this is why your wife has to work in her mid 40s, because you're too stupid to be able to support both of you in Huntington Fvcking West Virginia in your $300k house.Add housing market ignorance to the list of things professionals have had to explain to birthinghips the tax cheat.
You have no idea what you're talking about. Both properties in California closed over a year ago. The market in Orange County continued to climb for another 5-7 months. I didn't "just bought." Both have rates lower than 3% and already have significant equity.Rifle just bought. The key is what kind of property and where? Residential has not been a good time to buy lately.

ANYWHERE he wouldn’t have posted 1000 pictures of it?
The tell is in the absence of information. Remember when we clowned him for a month about his condo in SLC? He could have snapped a picture of one of the models he’s banging drinking coffee at his breakfast table and destroyed any argument any of us made of him being a fraud.
Instead he posted pics from Zillow.
