Description

Ben Shapiro went on Gavin Newsom’s podcast and argued that institutional investors are helping housing because rents are down. Rents dipping doesn’t help first-time buyers when home prices have doubled, institutional ownership is exploding, and Americans are being priced out of owning anything at all. We break down the numbers Ben blurred, the rent vs. ownership sleight of hand, and why “just rent forever” isn’t a solution, it’s a trap.

They are talking about rent. Turning every home into a rental makes neighborhoods crap. There are three rentals on my block. Guess which ones have overgrown lawns, tons of parking problems, and get the cops called on them and turn into squatter homes?

I literally crashed out at the beginning of this video. I’ve gone from listening to Ben Shapiro on a daily basis, to completely despising any time he opens his mouth!

How bout the local appraisers that inflate home values to increase property taxes every time they have a budget shortfall.

None of that address the fact that the dollar is worth less than it was 20 years ago due to printing money.
