They are getting a lot of money, but they don’t control him. He just wants to make money with them. There is a very good argument tech is in need of reigning in because they have become gilded era wealthy but no, he’s done things to hurt their interest. There are definitely international interest in this, but honestly when you reach a certain limit of wealth you aren’t bound to a country like normal people. An American billionaire has the same sway as a European or Chinese one.

Banks are buying them too cause they know they can make the renter pay three times the amount eventually. It’s also why this might be the worst time in US history for the home building that keeps getting pushed in the “abundance” philosophy cause those investment companies are like sharks in a feeding frenzy when it comes to buying homes.

Yep, I even started getting calls from people asking me if I want to sell. I have no incentive to sell unless I want to start over, which I don't.

Correct. Which is what I advised one coli member that insisted that he could refi his mortgage after a cut.

The issue is that borrowers are requesting higher payback on the 10 year treasury notes, because the USA is carrying a large national debt.
Tell him to get a part time job and leave the home alone

The average rate on a 30-year U.S. mortgage fell this week to its lowest level in more than a year, extending a recent trend that’s helped give lagging U.S. home sales a boost.

The average long-term mortgage rate fell to 6.19% from 6.27% last week, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday. A year ago, the rate averaged 6.54%.

This is the third straight weekly decline and it brings the average rate to its lowest level since Oct. 3, 2024, when it was 6.12%.



The 10-year yield was at 3.99% at midday Thursday, not far from around 3.97% the same time last week.

I also read the new job numbers so bad the Fed is going to keep going with cuts :eat:

Rates don’t matter since supply has been snatched up for years by blackstone plus other immigration factors. Housing is cooked long term
