Future of Housing: FUD is the Time to Invest
The most insightful answer I've heard on the future of housing comes from the OG @David Greene. The man really does think a step ahead when a majority of others are in the fear, uncertainty, and doubtful mindset. Essentially, he sums up the likely idea that a wave of tenants/non-homeowners will complain and drive politicians on the issue of rental affordability. For the politicians to keep everyone happy and receive their votes, the government will roll out a massive stimulus into the section eight housing program. Evidently, tenants will remain in their prior housing and landlords will receive the bulk of rent from the government. A win for landlords given they hold the asset, but a loss for tax payers. Thoughts?
