2024 Sienna Hybrid: 600+ miles per tank of gas.

So I read some articles on recommended shoes for supinator's (Under-pronation). Went to Hoka store at South Coast Plaza and ASICS stores at Citadel outlets. The ASICS shoes (Nimbus, Kayano, etc.) were really tight, was told that they have wide but it wasn't in stock. I could barely squeeze my...

Anyone buying the dip or wait and see?

I will need to check Ralphs across the street (on Woodbridge side). Have not shopped there for couple years.

My house in south LA county was purchased 12 years ago, and has $1,000/month mortgage payment. To rent the house today would cost $4,000/month. I was stupid enough to sell 4 investment properties before the pandemic, and lucky enough to have kept 2 houses. Had I kept all 6, I could have...

That sounds about right for Woodbridge townhomes. Newer Oak Creek detached condos cost a bit more but will rent about the same.

I was actually thinking more along the lines of dividend equity like SCHD. You get 3%-4% dividend yield annually and the price per share goes up over time. This roughly simulates rise in home value and rent over past decade, though past performance is not indicative of future results...

Personally, the only time that I'd buy a cashflow negative investment property is if I intentionally purchased it with 15 year fixed rate loan. I did this with a (then) newish investment house. The first decade was painful with the negative cashflow. In retro-spec, I wish I had bought an...
