67RModel Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago (edited) 27 minutes ago, mowerman said: Sounds like housing over here … this area and a good part of California… upcoming generation can’t even afford to buy a house now … it’s disgusting … I just sold the the first house I bought when I was 24. A 75 year old 1100 square foot ranch shoe box in the Pittsburgh suburbs. It is the definition of a starter house. Cost me $730/month including taxes and insurance when I first bought it but had crept up to about $890 recently due to property tax and insurance premium increases. I thought it was a super affordable place to live at those rates. I saw at the closing the young kid that just bought it has a payment on it of $2460/month for the next 30 years. I couldn't believe it. I felt sorry for him.

mowerman Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Yes, I realize your prices are about the same as they are here. Everybody is paying that now in my area a little house in Massachusetts. My parents paid 13,000 for it in 1960. It’s now worth 670,000. I don’t know what happened here or who can afford anything like that When I left New England you could buy a really nice place with a little property for around 35,000. 1980 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75888-cruiseliner-transformation/page/7/#findComment-589042 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what he does for work. Nothing special. Probably a $75-$90k salary. With no other debt his monthly cash flow is acceptable. I think banks are currently looking for 40% or less DTI. He is now essentially "house poor". 8 minutes ago, mowerman said: Hell, I didn’t realize we’re stepping all over Paul’s tread sorry I posted up a nice looking Cruiseliner for sale to make up for it lol. 1 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75888-cruiseliner-transformation/page/7/#findComment-589046 Share on other sites More sharing options...

67RModel Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago I don't have Facebook. Never have. But its the only place people seem to list their "junk" for sale anymore. I have found that using SearchTempest.com is kind of a "back door" into Marketplace without having to have a FB account. Browsing only and you have to be careful with how long you scroll or it locks you out. You have to open listings in new tabs then it "resets" in that browsing tab and you can start a new search. Its a PITA workaround but such is life. Everyone uses it now to sell their stuff and I refuse to put my information on there so I can't complain. Trouble is if I actually find something I want to buy I have get my wife to contact them for me....
