Update: putting bids on 2 houses today - The first is $115k over asking, the 2nd is $40k over asking...both were in a “taking bids until...” mode, and both were underpriced on purpose. Pretty savvy move. Within 24 hours of listing the first had 6 offers (including mine) and the 2nd has 3 offers including mine. What a crazy market.
Billy Horschel wins WGC Dell this afternoon. Way to grind it out.
At least there is one bright spot in Gator Nation tonight.
Thanks Billy.

Rent and wait. Cycles happen.

GBT....3/4 “ plywood is $1215 per 1000 board ft. Up from $325 1/1/20 and y’all want to rent and wait....we are 10 million housing units down nationwide due to Rona and millennials living in parents basements and y’all want to rent and wait....foreclosure due to Rona suspension expiring will be negligible. Buy all the house you can afford at lowest 30 year rate and watch it double.....look at the numbers nationwide. Location, location, location

I hope ANYONE in the central Fl. area is listening to this and please do it so I can buy your sh!t from the bank directly or off the courthouse steps for half of what you paid for it like I did 10 years ago in 18-24 month's....You can always do a ARM for short term ownership if you know you are getting out "for sure" in less than 5 years. No very common with rates "even now" at the low rate they are.
Son #2 and I have been talking about this for week... The parallels/similarities in the run up to 2007 and today. Yes, there are differences, but it seems to both of us that "smart" people (and I mean it) are trying to come up with reasons for why "it's different this time" with terms like "demand driven", "work from home/Covid", and "will likely remodel" to explain 2020 being highest year since 2007 for cash out refi. Add to that unemployment/economy in schitter, that they don't even talk about, nor today's extension on no eviction. Maybe they're right. But maybe they're wrong, again.I hope ANYONE in the central Fl. area is listening to this and please do it so I can buy your sh!t from the bank directly or off the courthouse steps for half of what you paid for it like I did 10 years ago in 18-24 month's....
GBT.......it's coming
It's never different. But it could be a different kind of same.Son #2 and I have been talking about this for week... The parallels/similarities in the run up to 2007 and today.

We're considering something like that. Finally decided to move from FL to Kansas City in late May/early June. I'm super leery of buying right now, especially since we don't want to be in KC for more than 3-4 years max. We'll keep our eyes out for a fixer-upper, that we may want to rent out later, but we'll likely just rent for a couple years.buying an under $400k house that we can use as a rental when we move out.
