Why are houses not affordable? Because house flippers are getting to them first and making them more expensive to buy.
O believe in capitalism and free enterprise, but it’s true.
Many people don't want the starter home. They want the 4-Bedroom, 2 1/2 bath, 2200+ square feet, right out of the gate. Oh, and let's not forget the granite countertops, stainless steel appliances,....blah...blah...blah. Gotta keep up with the Joneses after all.
