If you build a $1,000,000 (building cost) house on a $300,000 piece of land, all your growth will be from that $300,000. Even if the land value doubled you’ve only gone up 23%.
This is why the the S&P destroys real estate long term |

Date: February 11th, 2026 6:22 PM Author: woah (hitler did nothing wrong) S&P destroys real estate only if your bank will give you low cost 5x leverage. 20% down but you keep 100% of the gains at attractive costs of capital relative to equities or options.

Date: February 11th, 2026 6:51 PM Author: woah (hitler did nothing wrong) I'm talking about rental property but the point still stands. If you rent, you're paying profit on top of the cost of the landlord's ownership.
The only optimal solution is to tedpill and invest 100% of your salary in low cost index funds while you live in the woods with no electricity or running water. |

Date: February 11th, 2026 6:39 PM Author: coquettish nigress Oversimplified, but generally accurate (setting aside the leverage issue, which OP ignores)
This is why it's retarded to buy a home that's less than 20 years old. |

You can get a loan for margin trading too.
Leverage doesn’t negate my OP |
