The basic logic is the same now, but looking in the rearview mirror, it sure is tough to justify back then. Of course, back then I didn’t know what the last two years would look like. My crystal ball was a little dirty.
To start with, where I was talking about $2000/mo rent for a $200,000 home, now the home is likely worth $170,000 and the rent would be unlikely to exceed $1500. Of course there are neighborhoods that command higher rents… they also have stronger sales and support for higher prices.
Anyway, here is the read.
