1. I've heard of buying properties and developping them to resell at a profit. I believe there has also been firms that held off properties to raise prices, weren't there? Edit0: actually, your point was about "buying propert

Can you point to something that quantifies the positives vs the negatives? I have a hard time arguing that it's a net positive.

I don't know how it works, but if a renter becomes an owner (i e. A home is purchased by and owner occupier) there is one less renter and one less house available, remaining in balance and prices shouldn't move?

1. So investments can be in other sectors than housing, I've heard. I'm sure you can look it up. Or you're welcome to lecture me too. 2. If a homeowner has more than one property, why not sell one of the properties when you b

Thanks! I've not had a job where I moved for the salary/advantages, but I imagine I would only do so if the conpensation made it so that 12% fee seemed negligeable.

1. Investors make money by doing other things than renting properties, do they? Even property investors are able to sell at a profit. 2.Nearly half of renters in the USA are cost burdened ( https://www.census.gov/newsroom

1. Isn't that a big if in itself? 2. Keeping houses off market and renting them for a profit is a bad thing as it is harvesting the money the renters could be putting to the side to buy a house AND hikes the price of houses, making it

I'm not sure if I'm dense, but we don't use steel to make steel (whether crucibles or "feed material"). The first person to make steel made it without steel didn't they? Did I miss something? Edit0: fun tidbit

Great read! I wonder if there is something noteworthy about Studebacker - yes, they were the only carriage maker out of 4000 to start making cars, and therefore the CEO "knew better" than the other ones. But then again, Studebacke

Is the IAEA working for the DNI? I think it's not an american org, and you've just shown that an international org talked about iranian uranium - which is a non sequitur. I do think that you can look at what the DNI has been sayin

Respectfully, drop the conspiracies, the dept of intel has been consistent on this line since 2003, even if she were some kind of whatever you're hoping for, were all the directors since 2003 in the same position?
