Real Estate is a LIFESTYLE

  Real Estate is indeed a lifestyle.  From contemporary layouts & interior design/decor, the rise and fall in economic markets, turn key and rehab properties - to know & understand the grit of real estate is to love what it represents.  Home.  Value.  Wealth.  Security blanket.  Personal accomplishment.

According to a report by Zillow, the average time it takes for owning a typical U.S. home to make more financial sense than renting that same home is down about one month over the last quarter.  The new average is 1.96 years.  That means it would take roughly one year and 11 months for it to make more sense to own a home in the U.S. than to rent that same home.

Not surprisingly, break-even horizons are longest in expensive coastal markets like Los Angeles, Portland and Washington D.C.  This translates to a roughly two to three-year break-even horizon.  Los Angeles has the longest break-even horizon at 3.7 years.

The shortest break-even horizons are in the Southeast, with Memphis taking first place at 1.32 years.  Birmingham, Tampa and Orlando are other markets with notably short break-even horizons.

I wanted to live a normal life but I guess the only way for that to happen is for me to take birth again. Again, I wanted to live a normal life but I don't even know if I am going to take birth again as a human. I heard that if we never really did something terrible in this lifetime, we go straight to God. Have you asked yourself already if you really want to go to God? Is it your fault if you have been misled into thinking maybe you wanted to go to someone else? Another human perhaps.
