Since August 2021 the S&P 500 is up about 70%. The typical American home is up about 19%. At the dinner table, that settles it: you should have bought the index.
It's the wrong comparison. A rental earns four ways, and a price chart shows one of them — without the loan that bought the hous…
You have two complete applications for one Columbus rental. Your written rule says gross income of at least three times the rent. One applicant clears it at 3.09 times. The other, self-employed, sits at 2.70 times and misses it by five hundred dollars.
Then you run the line your listing never asked…
In Houston, 4.3% of single-family homes listed for rent were listed for sale within the past three months. The owners tried to sell, couldn't, and became landlords instead. That share has tripled in three years, is more than double the 2.0% national rate, and is the highest of any metro in Zil…
Across the biggest metros in the country, flat rent has two separate causes. One is a wave of new supply that the market absorbs and moves past. The other is a renter who is already paying 30% or more of their income to rent — and that one does not pass.
Where both hit at once, rent has barely move…
Two weeks under contract cost you twenty-four basis points. The re-quote landed at 7.70%, and the payment on a $138,750 loan went up by $23 a month. That is the number you spent a week angry about.
It is not the number that decides anything. The same spreadsheet that shows the $23 increase also sho…
There is a warning every new investor hears within about a week of mentioning a cheap market out loud. You'll never be able to sell it. It gets delivered with total confidence, often by someone who has never owned there.
It is worth taking seriously, because the thing it is pointing at is real…
A tenanted rental, priced at two hundred and forty thousand. The rent is real — someone is already paying it. The financing is lined up. And the lender's number comes back almost thirty-eight thousand dollars short of the asking price.
Nothing is wrong with the house. Nothing is wrong with th…
Every screening rule has a pass and a fail. Almost nobody asks what a pass is made of.
Run a rent-to-price screen across the country and a handful of markets clear it. They look like the answer — the one place the math still works. But the markets most likely to pass are small, and the smallest of…
You wrote the criteria in June, and they worked. Eight or nine properties a week worth a second look. You passed on every one of them, which is what a screen is for.
Three weeks ago the same saved search started coming back empty. Not one line of the criteria had changed.
In this episode of the 5…
