    This trend started in 2016 and has been consistent in the last 24 months.

    Single women buying homes 17%

    Single men buying homes 7%

    Lol

    Let’s see…never ending payments to the bank. Never ending payments to the govt. A crap shack, that constantly needs maintenance and cash injections. Zero freedom of movement as I’m now tied down to a place.

    Sounds good 👍

    The answer, is no.

    It’s all about the data used, and its context.
    Allow me to “vocalize” my view.
    Firstly, the term single is not defined. I see it as such.
    1. An unmarried woman, regardless of relationship status is “single”
    2. A woman cohabitation with a man or another woman regardless of financial status/dependence is “single”
    3. A divorced woman collecting child/spousal support is “single”
    4. A woman who is widowed and collected insurance is “single”
    5. A married woman is a “single” woman waiting to happen again.

    1. A divorced man is divorced, not single, and also he has financial obligations to his former spouse.
    2. A man in a relationship is not single, and has financial obligations to his current “partner” and probably to a former one too.
    3. A married man is single, he just doesn’t know about that yet, but still has the financial obligations.
    4. A widower, may not have the former partner, but will have debts because of her.
    5. A single man is a man not in a relationship AND not bound to a woman in any fashion. I haven’t met a single straight adult male that meets this criteria, yet.

    A court ordered transfer of real estate and funding is not “buying”.

    There was a time in my life when I gave a fuck. Now you have to pay ME for it

    Houses are generally such a giant waste of money to live in as as a single person, and unless you really like doing lawn work and odd maintenance jobs, a giant pain in the ass time sink as well. Only time it really makes sense is if you really need that 3 car garage that is attached to it for your toys lol.

    I’ve been quite happy with the condo life…its pretty much the ease of the apartment lifestyle, only cheaper and I’ve built equity in it…best of both worlds. The c~~~s can have the houses, I’ll make sure to drive by and wave when they’re out mowing the lawn, raking leaves, shoveling snow, or other bulls~~~ jobs men traditionally got stuck with lol.

    Yeah. . .

    Houses are a total ‘waste’

    The last two times that I sold a primary residence I owned, I got obnoxious checks at escrow and didn’t have to pay any taxes on the money because I had owned both places for over two years and they were my residence.

    Real waste.

    Invested that money to support my rock star lifestyle lately, which is not a waste.

    And the definition of ‘single’ for the sake of the real estate statistic above is:

    A woman that purchases a home without another person as a co-borrower and/or a woman that is not legally married.

    These figures are just 3rd wave feminist propaganda. Its all BS. Talk about polishing a turd. When more and more men opt out. This figure will turn upside down and skyrocket in favor of men.

    A tranquil mind is neither happy nor sad, it is uninfluenced by external conditions.

    It depends entirely on the man and his situation at the time.

    I’ve rented and I’ve owned. Both choices fit the situation at a particular time in my life.

    Do not date. Do not impregnate. Do not co-habitate. Above all, do not marry. Reclaim and never again surrender your personal sovereignty.

    Wow.

    You guys really can’t handle the economic reality that feminism has created.

    Single women in the last 24 months have been buying homes as sole legal owners / borrowers at a rate of 17% of new loans.

    And single guys at a rate of 7%

    I posted the article as a way to

    01: Confirm
    02: Validate
    03: Verify

    All of the effects of feminism on the economy that you guys scream, cry and break down about in the forum daily.

    And somehow according to the experts: Those above numbers are not accurate.

    Over twice the amount of new home loans have been assumed by single women compared to single men in the last 24 months.

    I got my ass handed to me on my last experience owning…but that was due to a c~~~. She got to go ride the carousel, and I got stuck with the debt. Still paying for it. I’m grateful and relieved to be out of the market (both real estate and dating).

    I’ve seen many individuals make a killing on this scam. It’s mostly a function of timing.

    The answer, is no.

    I believe the numbers Sky-O. I believe it’s due it part to things like how more women than men are going to college and more women than men are graduating. It’s just another result of the misandrist social engineering which has been occurring for the last fifty years or so.

    I’ll be there are federal and state programs assisting first time female home buyers too.

    Home ownership is one of the single most important investments anyone can make.

    Due to years of false statistics about women earning less than men, women are actually earning more than men in many cities and this is probably under reported.

    This is a sign of the progression of feminism. Women are the ones saving money, getting good jobs and having good credit.

    Did you think that 60%/40% ration of women to men on campus would have no effect?

    The feminists knew it would.

    It depends entirely on the man and his situation at the time.

    I’ve rented and I’ve owned. Both choices fit the situation at a particular time in my life.

    Its not the owning part…its the house part. Just an example…I know a single guy living alone in a 2400 square foot 4 bedroom house. He’s paying almost 8,000 a year in taxes, it cost the same to keep heated or cooled as it would if he were a two income 5 person family, and just about every weekend he’s devoting time to some little bulls~~~ project to keep the place up.

    What would the average single guy use out of that 2400 square feet? 1 of the bedrooms, the kitchen, a bathroom, and probably 1 room with a tv and computer and whatever other entertainment s~~~ you have, and the garage. 2/3 of the house just sits there most the time as unused, wasted, expensive space. Hey guess what…I have all that stuff minus the garage in my 800 square foot condo, taxes, heating, and air conditioning probably cost about 1/5th of what the house cost, and the amount of time spent on little bulls~~~ projects is near non existent compared to the house. If I missed the garage bad enough and wanted to store a second car I could rent a storage unit less than a mile away for about 100 bucks a month.

    To be fair though…a big expensive condo or apartment for a single guy is kind of a waste too. Its just a matter of how much space do you truly use, vs what are you paying for? Would you rent a 3 bedroom apartment as a single guy and let two bedrooms sit empty? F~~~ no…that’s retarded…so why would buying a 3 bedroom house to have 2 empty bedrooms be smart? I guess women do it because in their demented minds they’re going to fill the bedroom up with babies…but in this day an age I’d be willing to bet a lot of the single career women buying houses in their 30s aren’t going to be having the little happy families they still think they will, and those houses will just sit mostly as mostly unused space that are nothing but money and time pits.

    I dont dispute the numbers Sky-O.
    What I have an issue with is it’s not the whole story. There are a metric f~~~ tonne of mitigating factors that are involved, but are not mentioned it the article.
    The economic realities are what they are, that is just how it is.

    Just using myself as an example.
    After being divorced for 20 years, every legal and Government document pertaining to my marital status has to be DIVORCED according to my Governments agencies. My ex wife on the other hand, was allowed to change her status to single 2 years after the divorce was final. That is the point that I called into question, based on my experiences.

    I was and am extremely fortunate that I didn’t have to pay alimony, child support, or maintenance of any kind to my ex, or any other woman for that matter. Nor did I get child support or maintenance of any type from her despite my having sole custody of our child.
    Most men are not quite so fortunate, and are paying for other “things” than having the ability to buy a home for themselves, like paying for a mortgage for an ex via guaranteed “support” to her.

    There was a time in my life when I gave a fuck. Now you have to pay ME for it

    If you like to burn and blow s~~~ up in the garden, then a house is for you.

    And a place to put your antenna collection – without having to apply for permission, which you normally never get.

    And a place to fix your cars without someone calling the cops.

    The house doesn’t have to be expensive. But these are the invisible advantages.

    C~~~s will make it expensive: Fancy furniture, fancy plumbing, a 10k$ toilet seat… Outside garden “designed” and maintained by a professional…

    To “impress” the neighbors… LOL.

    My 3 floor house costs way less in upkeep than any apartment. But renting it would cost up to 2000 Euros a month.

    And I do it all by myself.

    3 days ago the inspector came to check our oil furnace with the new 2018 regulations and it passed. Not bad for having it bought defective from eBay, repaired and adjusted it on the kitchen table.

    Adjusted it with my ears and nose… The way I always did with my 1970’s carburetor engines.

    And my place is toxin free. Here I can survive. So many houses make me sick the moment I enter.

    In July of 2018, this honey pot forum was sold out to an unidentified NPC sock puppet and troll organization. Most independent thinkers and writers migrated to other MGTOW forums as a result of the never-ending infighting and deliberate trouble starting caused by members who were given "carte blanche" by the admin to do whatever they want. Before my departure, I only left a few thousand cat pics here to comfort and ridicule the feminist owners who now run this place. Their background agenda is to make MGTOW look like a club of losers the public eye. And during the course of 2019, they actually managed to destroy almost all other MGTOW venues as well. Here is the truth about "theindependentman.org" aka "TIM" which was created as an extended workbench to further divide the community.

    Good question and that’s why I’m looking to downsize after retiring, but that not the point I think Sky-o was trying to make.

    He was trying to point out how the economic tables are turning. Women in their 20s earn more than men their age, women attend college and graduate more than men do, and women are now buying homes at over twice the rate men do.

    All of that isn’t because of what women themselves have done, it’s still happening. The government has been playing favorites for decades now and men aren’t the favorites.

    Old Bill just explained my entire point

    (see above post)

    The numbers are accurate.

    We know the reasons why.

    The increase rate in home ownership among single women vs. single men is part of a well orchestrated and systematic attack on men, reigning down on multiple levels.

    Essentially regulating single men to being a sub-species of new socio economic factors & dynamics.

    I own a condo and it’s my little slice of heaven. Don’t have to mow the lawn, shovel the snow, rake the leaves or maintain an entire building. My mortgage is extremely affordable and I’m building equity. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

    We just don't realize life's most significant events while they're happening. Back then, I thought, "Well, there'll be other days". I didn't realize that that was the only day. - "Moonlight" Graham

    It’s not hard to figure out. Single women receive child support. Single men pay child support. Single women get special credit and tax benefits. Single men have to make up the slack. And so on.

    So of course more single women are buying houses than single men. But it’s still the single men who end up paying for them.
