Sounds like you're saying you can buy your own house. So go do it.
Wow I never thought of that. It's almost like people treating housing as an investment portfolio, corporate landlords, and greedy developers have made all the housing around me completely unaffordable.
On top of that, I wouldn't qualify for a mortgage of that amount, despite the fact I've been paying the same in rent for nearly a decade.
The bare minimum of research would tell you to qualify for a mortgage to buy an apartment is much more difficult than being able to rent.
I worked in real estate. I'm aware of how a closing works.
Apparently not lol
Ok buddy. Lol. I'm a certified abstractor.
Yet you don't know how a mortgage works. Pretty impressive honestly
A mortgage is a document filed in the register of deeds office. I've filed several. You're looking like a clown here.
Oh wow that's crazy.
