the tiny houses in SV are not any better built than the homes built in houston. it is just dumb to think that. homes in houston do just fine despite higher levels of humidity and more variance in temperatures. |

ljl just wait until the tape on that zipsystem sheathing fails in 3-5 years due to heat/humidity and you have mold growth in all your walls.
also that sweet smell that lingers for years and years in those new homes are VOCs from formaldehyde and other carcinogens in the pressboard, cabinetry, and insulation. it takes at least $250/sq ft to build without those shoddy framing and shell materials. corporate builders putting up mcmansions @ $100/sq ft are cutting corners af even at economies of scale. |

i just met with a few builders to kick around the idea of building my own home in an affluent suburb outside NYC, and the costs, especially right now, are astronomical. i'd legit be taking a 15-25% bath on the house the day i bought it. not joking.
so now whenever i move out of MFH it will be an existing house only. |

Date: February 21st, 2018 2:48 PM Author: slap-happy native Living in high COL cities is for suckers. They think they're getting ahead by working at X company, which may pay 10-15% more than elsewhere, but totally forget that that increased income is offset by the increased COL. Meanwhile, they justify this by saying "oh well if I work at X company, I'll have better opportunities down the road" but fail to realize that most will never sniff partner or whatever senior management level jobs everyone is striving to get.
The end result: massive student loans, massive mortgage payment, and job prospects below what the person thought they would have 5 years later. |

Date: February 21st, 2018 3:08 PM Author: White Parlor Then those folks sell their $1MM house (which they bought for $800k) and buy a massive house in Texas with 50% down from the appreciation of their coastal property.
It sucks for Texans looking to upgrade. We're competing with Cali/Seattle/NY folks who have seen ~100% price appreciation over last 10 years and can pay all-cash for a lot of house. |

Date: February 21st, 2018 3:18 PM Author: Diverse Effete Ticket Booth It's not as insane as you're making it seem. In law it's like 2x difference to start (BigLaw 1st year v. Buffalo first year), and then the divide only increases because of severe salary compression in most small markets. Big city COL is certainly higher, but with any luck at all (or almost no luck if you plan to stay for 10 years or more) your house is an appreciating asset, and this has been the case for a series of bubbles over the past 40 years.

|
Date: February 21st, 2018 3:20 PM Author: Embarrassed To The Bone Outnumbered Son Of Senegal If you are putting down a hefty down payment, you're probably still better off just throwing it into the S&P 500
The returns in the market are still better, but I guess if youre taking out a big mortgage then it's arguable |
|
Date: February 21st, 2018 3:23 PM Author: Diverse Effete Ticket Booth Not sure that returns in the market are better given the leverage with a house. That 8-10%/yr appreciation (or whatever it is, and sometimes it's negative) is on the full value of the house, of which you only put 20% down.

Date: February 21st, 2018 10:48 PM Author: ebony hall codepig I have a 4,500 sq ft house with 5 bedrooms in the suburbs of Houston. It is bigger than the 7 apartments I had lived in over a period of 10 years or so in big cities, COMBINED.
The thing is that it isn't big enough and I wish I bought a 6,000 sq ft place instead. |

Date: February 21st, 2018 11:03 PM Author: ebony hall codepig Would like a big office, a theater room, 2 to 4 more bedrooms and a bunch of extra closets. I have a bunch of little kids and there doesn't seem to be enough room to keep up with all their stuff. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3899112&forum_id=2#35457721) |

Date: February 21st, 2018 11:09 PM Author: blathering lettuce space yeah an office would be good. i actually really like the idea of a library/office -- something wood-paneled off the formal LR or DR.
how many kids?
i feel like bedrooms past a certain number are big time wasted space, especially if they are en suite. i guess you could do jack and jill to save space. |
