    Isn’t Denver an expensive city? Buying doesn’t mean instant low monthly payments. You gotta sit on that crap for ten years.

      I dunno but my buddy just moved from his apartment in Brooklyn to Omaha and he was shocked the prices there were way too close to NYC prices for rent. He did go from a 1BD to 2BD but the cost difference per ft² was almost the same. Like $200 difference.

      I’ve heard similar stories all across Canada as well, I think landlords have unchecked greed these days because people will end up paying no matter what they have to sacrifice you have a roof over their head.

        Yeah, I always laugh at those median house prices because it’s impossible to find a house for that.
