They highlight the difference between the average home cost and the average home value suggested by the price of large institutional companies such as American Homes 4 Rent and Invitation Homes Inc.I suspect this is nonsense (especially as according to google their price to book ratio is positive). 

I will keep this front of mind going into future conversations and negotiations though incase it raises other red flags!

Here’s a chart showing what percentage of an American’s average mortgage payment goes to taxes and insurance:Rising taxes and insurance premiums make real estate even less affordable for buyers already facing higher home prices and mortgage rates that rose ~150% in less than two years.

@Leslie L Meneus you are trying to find a tribe of super freaks.Let me explain…Only 6% of Americans own one or more rental property.  

The #1 reason why landlords fail - according to the American Apartment Owners' Assn - is failure to manage to the lease. 

While that kind of income is not a deterring factor, when I looked over the terms of service many big red flags came up.

Prices a few years ago were based on expectations of (in addition to interest rates staying low): - Then current operating cost assumptions (like insurance cost expectations being flat)- A seeming disregard for record levels of new inventory / supply hitting the market- Extremely high inbound migration expectations which are likely to not be met, due to both natural disasters and the boomerang effect when people from California or the Northeast move to the American South and hate every minute of the humidity, the large and relentless swarm of insects, and the occasional hurricane.
