Like this one family I know started buying townhouses off of CPW in the late 70s/early 80s for 200-400k a pop. Now, admittedly that wasn't very cheap back then, but they have 9 of them now and each is worth about 10-15 million dollars. Others who even owned small homes in neighborhoods like Forest Hills or Fresh Meadows who bought homes at normal middle class prices now sit on 3 bed, 2 bath, 1500 sq ft homes that go for over a million bucks. Crazy.

Just ran the numbers. If they bought nine townhouses at 300k apiece 40 years ago, that would be about 9% annual appreciation. Granted they could make money from renting them out along the way, but rental yields are usually pretty low in NYC. Not much better than the stock market, if at all.

No doubt that it's great to have. But let's say the properties are increasing at 9% per year. Cap rates in NY are so low that rent will only add a couple of percent to that figure. So maybe the total return is 12%. Comparable to what you could get in the stock market, with a lot more liquidity and arguably a lot less risk. Certainly you could spread your funds out over hundreds or thousands of stocks as opposed to nine buildings in the same neighborhood.

Your "model" here all depends on their leverage and how they financed. If they bought 9 townhouses and only put down 500k and had shitloads of low/good interest to deduct, then they made considerably more than 9% returns. Somebody who snatched up CPW townhouses in the late 70s probably got shit interest rates, but I would assume they refinanced their balls off all through the 80s/90s/00s, so they may still owe a couple million, but have like 100M of new equity off of a tiny nut. And all their places are basically instarents to the lowest risk tenants on the planet.

Maybe. Or maybe they paid cash for the properties. Regardless, they could have bought stocks on margin if they wanted to juice their returns. Granted that's risky too.

I made a thread about this once.

Imagine if your grandfather bought some pre-war 20 unit walkup building when NYC was a dump and property was cheap. If your family kept the building and operated it, and assuming you had no debt on it any more, that one building would generate like $450-500k per year in net income after expenses. Now imagine a family that had 2 or 3 of these buildings. There must be a bunch of families like this out there.

My dad wanted to buy a house for 300,000 in the early 00s, but got pressured out of it by other members of our family. It sold for 1.7 million, and the devil knows how much it's worth right now.

This is an interesting point, but the people living in them never intended to rent-to-own, these were definitely subsistence level renters whose rent is now frozen at a rate that is maybe like 10-20 percent of "market value". Additionally I've met many rent control people and they are the SCUM of the earth no one would miss. Not all, but a LOT of them.
