Re:Wall Street is Buying Homes - Will Main Street Follow? by jbdeboer on Thursday December 05, 2013 @04:57PM (#6857592)
The math in this post is funky and one-sided.

Is $3k/mo a good price to pay for a place to live? To answer that question you would need to know the alternatives:

* how much does it cost to rent the same apartment? * if you have $100,000 on hand, what is the ROI of other investments you could make?

Whether buying your home is a good idea is much more involved than a short blog post and always comes down to individual circumstances.
