[quote]yes, this idea that giant corporations are the ones buying all these house is completely false[/quote]
Your graph shows that entities with 1000 or even 100 or more properties making SFR purchases wasn’t really a thing prior to 2019. Now it is and the share of purchases to these entities is a...

[quote]I'd argue that people are born inherently good and learn from the selfish actions of others to be more selfish.[/quote]
Where did the selfish people get their selfishness from?
It has to be inherent on some level.
My answer: We’re both. We’re made in the image of God so we have inher...

[quote]What do you want the average person to do about it?[/quote]
I’m sure there are things that can be done at the local level to make it harder for a single entity to buy/build an entire SFR subdivision

re: Be honest....how many of you dont use a turn signal (blinker) regularly?

[quote]I overuse it. Use it even when there’s only one direction option from the lane I’m in.[/quote]

I think I had somewhat of a “reverse mid-life crisis”.

He’s an alcoholic (although my mom tells me he quit drinking a couple years ago). He was always volatile and is pretty mean to everyone he supposedly cares about.
