The desert, frozen tundras, swamps, etc aren't greener.

I generally have the ability to identify different users by their usernames and it should have been overly obvious to you that you were off when I questioned what your quote had to do with what I posted. I think it's more a case of your preprogrammed throwing up of the same complaints

and again same excuse.. "If you dont like it, move out" Well consider it cost to move, it cost to drive further to your current work place. How about keep your rates reasonable were we wont have to play pass the buck.. Grass isnt always greener when you push people out..

Sorry the former owners wanted to move on but that's the way it is.

Well the previous owner didnt seem to have a issue? and 4500 vs charging 6700k is a huge jump. 2k profit? Thats another rent payment. I assume the new owner is over reaching with it comes to "maintenance"

O yea we need to have a 7 year IRS return for FHA to get you that 3% we already approved you for.. GFYour self..
Yep, time to renew rent, and increase it another 100 bucks and unexpected Car break down ( goes the 3%).

So yea lets just keep the prices high to keep us from saving anything. The education excuse is so old, its unbeliveable. Education only gets you so far, its the business that determins if your worth it. Lets pay you 40k a year were rent will take up over half that.. So what does that leave you? O yea and its the only company willing to hire you with zero experiance, but you got that PHD...
Jeez H

Half the country buys a house. What makes you so special that you can't come up with 5 or 7 years worth of Federal tax returns, keep your credit score out of sub-prime, and save a 3% down payment?

There are these other magical expenses when you own property:
Property taxes
Insurance
Water/sewer
Maintenance

Of course, you've never owned a home because it's "hard" so you wouldn't know these things.

Its all about location, that same size house/ apt in say southern OH, Indiana, KY, TN, landlord would be lucky to get applicants with a rent under $1000.

San Fran is popular right now, so of course rents are going to be sky high, but normally that doesnt last forever, times change, desired locations change, lots of variables.
