You slow demand with higher interest rates, which makes houses less affordable due to higher interest payments.You raise demand with lower interest rates, or “rate cuts”.That part of the quoted post makes no sense, hence there is no “conspiracy”.

There are settings in the platform that help you apply rules like dropping the nightly rates as they come closer, discounting for gaps between bookings, raising the prices around the holidays, etc.

So for a $500k investment you would look to raise $250-$300k and get bank money for rest but your overhead will be too high.

I am planning on raising rent April 2025 when the 5 year lease expires.

It still hasn't sold and it appears they raised the price $5k.

Earn money3. raise moneyreality is majority earn money that they save then its not many people who actually raise money.

They are people who take risks everyday that their extremely large investment won't be trashed while the tenant doesn't pay rent, all the while self righteous snowflakes try to make it more difficult on the landlord to remove the scum, while preaching to the public how landlords are evil for raising rents. 

All this pressure on rent's, it's not going anywhere, and as more landlord's relent to the pressure it facilitates greater ease for other landlord's to additionally raise rent rates as well.

My current primary ( scenario 1) Keep the primary for the life of the loan ( current rate is 4.5 so i dont see my self refinancing anytime soon)current home value 1,150,000Loan amount 935,000appreciation estimate 5% per year after a 28 year hold and the house is paid off I would have a house worth 4,312,000$my current mortgage is 6125$ ( piti) included My second option( scenario 2) Sell the house, walk away with $150 ,000 ish in hand and put that into a low cost index fund Rent a house elsewhere for about 3000$ ish and take the extra 3000$ im saving everymonths from not having to pay my mortgage and puting that money in the index fund as well I ran the numbers on both of these scenarios and doing what I mentioned above would break even at about 28 years meaning my stock account would be worth 4.3 million just like my house would , but the only is that holding a house for 28 year would mean 28 years of property taxes, loan interest ,home insurance and repairs etc whick I calculated to be about 1,200,000$ at minimum which raised my eyebrows to say the least Also i understand that each of these options ( stock market vs real estate ) will have there tax consequences ( long term capital gains) so any thoughts on that would be appreciated as well.  

The area is a college town that is exploding, so I will most likely be able to raise rents to $2,500 next year very easily.
