rental market in reverse?

I think the rental market is strong. It was probably was a bit weaker in Jan, Feb and March than last year but it's starting to heat up again and I defintiely believe that toward the latter part of April, May and June the makrket will be equally if not stronger than last year.

rents in my building just keep going up ... it's stomach-churning

yes.... rents are increasing, inflation factor

rent in my building are up 10% this month for those who have received a renewal offer!

i'm looking to move back to new york and rents are higher than ever.

no but if you listen to the anti-buyers, they claim rents are gonna be waaay down! You guys must be lying!

maybe the renters were a little bit TOO anti buying.

when will it crack-looking to either keep renting or make a purchase? $$ differential is negligible-so not sure if I should plunk down and purchase-with the hope the market doesnt go back up or keep renting for another year.

One thing I learned on this site is that if you rent you KNOW your rent will increase; if you buy with a fixed rate mortgage you know what your 'rent' will be long into the future.

My rent went up. Prett significantly too.

I meant to say "Pretty" significantly. Sorry for the typo.
