"BOB", you are getting like "XO", all "Google", All The Time!
If you check my posts , you will find nothing about "renting", or "Buying" a house or condo.
"Why Is THAT", you SHOULD ASK"!!!!!!!!
BECAUSE, the value of real property is dependent on those "3 Things" that I doubt I need to state, because we ALL know what it/they ARE!!!!
My cost comparisons are about what we choose to eat, watch, wash with, drive, energy, you know, the costs that are the same no matter where in a country one resides.
I compare "Cheese" in Boston, to "Cheese" here in SD!
The "Cheese" in Boston is cheaper, better quality,MUCH greater in varieties, and actually tastes good!
Just like the MEAT, bread, eggs, and lets not talk "Helado", which "Bon" is EXCELLENT, but VERY VERY expensive!!!!
