Why Your House Keeps Feeling Richer Than It Really Is
From Investing from Nothing · 38:22
Show by Creators Obomedia
Between 2006 and 2012, the typical home in Las Vegas lost more than half its value, even though its owners had been told a house is the safest investment there is. In this episode we look at where a home's return really comes from, and at what taxes, upkeep, insurance and selling costs quietly take from the price gain. We also look at what more than a century of data from sixteen countries shows about housing. Finally, we look at what a sensible investor can do with their own home.This episode was created with artificial intelligence: AI-assisted script and AI-generated (synthetic) voice. Hosted on Acast.
