Where I live it is $2000+ to rent a 1 bedroom apartment, which is about the same as the mortgage on a 4000 sq foot home on an acre that we purchased this past summer. I’ve been thinking that everyone that can will start buying since rent prices are crazy high.

Do you live in a tech hub / city? I'm living in a "rent cheaper than owning" tech city and it just seems like homes are being snapped up by DINK couples (both working in tech) who want to build a real estate portfolio. Hard as a single person trying to just get into a starter home :/

I do not live in or near a tech hub.
