renting is basically throwing your money away every month. You build no equity, you buy no tax shelter, and you have no net worth. Millennials are beginning to realize that and are making up some of the largest percentage of home buyers in a lot of markets around the country.
As for incentives, I'm not talking the usual "we'll discount your security deposit" or "free $350 TV". I literally saw a giant burst of apartments built in the mid 80's and about a year later some complexes were giving multiple months of free rent and one of them, yes, I remember the signs "lease today - Hawaii vacation included".
Just curious how young is the average person on this forum? You all seem pretty hard to convince of anything and a lot of the optimism and excitement makes me think you've never seen the bad side of business.

Dude, why are you (and everyone) trying to convince anyone anything? I thought the purpose of this forum was to share information regarding future, on-going, and past skyrise developments. That's literally it.
And for the record... we all know not every proposed development will get built. But when we go through a period with a TON of news... this forum is going to get excited. Kinda the whole point, is it not?
