Instead of implementing velocity banking w/ my HELOC, I borrowed $150K and made 2 $75K investments into multifamily syndications.   

Red States tend to have much more affordable housing than Blue States, I believe.The real problem is that Wages have effectively been stagnating over decades while Shelter has steadily increased for both Ownership and Rent.Where there are much larger population, there is a change towards renting rather than owning because the most recent TWO generations actually cannot afford to purchase a home.That lead to a huge increase in Renters.With the YUGE increase in Renters, naturally, there will be a push to enact laws that are biased for Renters... at least seemingly biased (we know that virtually all Economists predict that Rent Regulations will inevitably cause the remaining market apt rents to rise as well as a extreme time frames to get a rent regulated apt which can be as much as 30 years).My guess is that if Red States start shifting towards renters from Home Ownership in general, over time, they will begin the process of implementing some sort of rent regulations eventually.SO.... my thoughts, which can be wrong, I admit, is that once the population of renters reach a high majority over home owners AND there is a significant shortage of affordable renting options, rent regulations is inevitable.The only way rent regulations will not happen is if there is either no short supply of apts for the large demands of renters.So is it Red versus Blue or is it Renters versus Landlords?
