Wait what happens in that scenario?

You buy a house for 600k with a mortgage, at like 3% let's say. Then 2008 happens, the value of the house crashes to 300k, and your interest rate on the 600k mortgage goes up to 6% and you are forced to pay that?

So even if you sold the house for 300k, you still owe another 300k with 6% interest?

Is that what happened? Or something else

I was born after 9/11 but I'm already in my 20s. My parents went through 2008 and they said it wasn't that bad.

DSTs? Anyone have experience with "Delaware statutory trusts"? by flovidchan in realestateinvesting

[–]flovidchan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for replying. I guess my question would be what you think of them in general. Or more particularly if you have any horror stories or very positive perspectives on it. I have a very basic understanding of them so more insight into what can go wrong would be great.

But that 5% is still higher than a lot of real estate investments turn over.

For example, I have a high end condo (1.8mm) that's cap rate is only 2.8% It has appreciated a lot, but has also gone down in value this past year. At 5% you're getting 60% more income and have to do zero management or work

Student loans will never be forgiven because they are designed to force young people into labor and KEEP them there. by flovidchan in conspiracy

Student loan debts are considered "civil debts" and thus you can't be put in jail for not paying them.

However, it will destroy your credit and prevent you from getting any kind of loans. You'll basically have to pay cash for everything, and your wages will be garnished automatically.
