There are 1500 sq foot homes being bought sight unseen for $350K that are being torn down to build a new 3000+ sq foot two story in its place... that will end up on the market for $1.5 mil.

One of the rebuilds that went up last fall sold before Christmas for 1.8

This is literally happening in my neighborhood as I type, and its not hurting my feelings at all since our house is paid for.

Ridiculous. We rent. There is no way we will pay that. Not a chance in hell.

We are tossing around the idea of doing our own "rebuild" instead of selling and letting someone flip it.

We could put around $300K into our own home, have a nice and newer place, and increase the value three fold... at a minimum.

I told the wife we can live in a tiny home in the backyard for a year while the work is being done, and she is actually considering it. LOL

Bingo.

The banks always win.

Approve a bad loan, get that down payment....
all the while knowing you will likely repossess the home.
Prolly a rental now.

Odd how so many root for the wolves...

Banks are instructed by government to make these marginal loans under the guise of equity and inclusiveness.

The borrower is ALWAYS slave to the lender.

The people that make money off of borrowed money already have the cash and don't need the loan to begin with, and quite often are the ones writing the very rules in the first place.

Diligence and perseverance are virtues.

Agreed....the banks and the govt serve the interest of each other.
Painting the banks as victims here is comedic.

There is... and most of them are not elected officials, yet the elected officials do their bidding.

I've known this since my late 20's.

Agreed...the banks, owners of DC, conducted a scheme to steal
billions from Americans in 2008.  AND get bailouts as the cherry on top.

Tell that to private equity. Saddle companies with debt, cash out, cut costs, and declare bankruptcy to wipe the debt clean. 

[Optional: Transfer or “sell” assets to another shell company so they don’t get repo’ed]

(Your mileage may vary)

My late 20's were in the 90's... LOL

In 2008 I said let it crash and burn... It was necessary.

Of course no one listened to little ol' me.

Sorry sir.  ALL empires end.  No exceptions.  Ever.
Empire is ultimately what is at stake.
And empire always ultimately loses.
