A wise fella once told me: “Old is the new cool”

Still can’t believe what they did to Radio Raheem.

Being old isn’t a flex?

I guess people expect to die young

 

[staffsgtdignam]

.... being old is definitely a flex. Whole world throughout all human history has seen being alive as a flex. So NT definitely not the only place .

It also means you likely own a home without somehow paying both an insanely price and an insanely high interest rate like younger 1st time home buyers (which IMHO is a massive flex nowadays lol)

 

[headdetective]

None of you young cats touching my mortgage rate lol

Def a flex

Seeing the value of my forever house practically triple and knowing I only owe a fraction because I bought over a decade ago is pure flex.

Being old is definitely a flex. Just jokes. Cuz that movie came out in like what 89? Lol that’s kinda crazy

My respects to you OG. I was raised to respect the elderly . But seriously that’s dope, I love knowing older people. Im a NBA/hip-hop/sneaker historian so I love getting sources from people who actually lived through things that I study about

Def a flex

unless yours is 0%…I’m touching it #housingtalk

Big Unc thread.

I'm 27 should've bought a house in 09 instead of that Nintendo DS

Me, a 23 year old college student who lives at home, reading thru this thread
(home ownership seems impossible at this point)

Cats around my way renting out rooms in their homes starting at $1k.

Thanks. I just gotta continue to make the best out of what I've got. I don't get charged for rent or groceries at home, it's just my own stuff that I have to pay for (e.g., phone bill, Xbox bill, etc). Right now I'm just trying to finish up my schooling and hopefully land a professional job that will allow me to save up enough to comfortably move out. Of course, I do have a job now, but it certainly ain't the kind you try to live off of.

 

[WASHED KING]

Paying a band for a bedroom is nasty work. I'd rather stay at my parents crib before I do that.

Finding a roommate is definitely the move though. I'm splitting a 2 bed 2 bath in the middle of downtown right now for 1600 a month all inclusive. First time having a roommate since undergrad because I want to buy a house by the time I'm 30 and these 1 bedroom prices were hitting me over the head.

Been getting raises each year, working OT only for housing to eat all of it up.

 

[slaughterx]

Im def glad I bought a house when I did, even though the job market here sucks. $1200 for 3 bed 3 bath and 3600 sq ft (w/ basement)... I will probably never find again. Paid $160k 3 years ago and its already appreciated 90k.

 

[frenchbreadbuilds]

$300k in equity gang!

bought in 2017 and our house has more than doubled. we owe less on the house now than the amount that its appreciated by.

its wild to think if my wife and I were still making what we made back then, we wouldnt be able to afford our house now.

 

[headdetective]

Damn 300k is nice

I thought I was doin somethin at almost 200k equity lol

this a recent occurrence. this time last year i was at about $200k. comps in my neighborhood are up over $50k since January. These arent big homes either. My neighborhood is development of 1600-1800 sqft starter homes all built in the 60's.

No one is building. Especially not entry level housing. So values continue to rise.

And (as I read further down) great equity. Bigger flex!

Finally able to pick my pair up over the weekend & so far I’m loving them. Way way better the ‘06 release which I tossed out years ago but I kept my old MJ Flight tee that they also retro that same year. So happy to pair them up together again even though the color don’t match
LN4 btw

Brought our 2nd two family house during the pandemic. At an amazing rate that I don’t think it’s ever going to reach those lows in a long time. Renting each floor at 2500 excluding utilities

Also what is this old age start up at?
I’m 31 and I still consider myself young lol
