Renting also has hedges embedded, and every hedge can be a risk position. In particular the interest rate options in foxed mortgages are pretty expensive and it only hedges the cost of a particular house not housing in general. Housing cost is correlated with local incomes so in some ways it's doubling down. In particular recessions are deflationary in the immediate aftermath. |
