Financial engineering to continue in the high cost markets via a continued period of very low interest rates, very high rental rates and decent appreciation remaining in place? Not personally crazy about doing it as an investment strategy but must follow these more macro trends will impact both the economy and RE prices in other areas in a positive way for years to come..





California is nowhere to be found on the short-term financial gain list, but it's all over the place in the long-term list, with six of the top 10 cities. Since in the long-term scenario Zillow assumes someone has held the property for six years before selling, and loses money from renting each year, only the flushest of mom-and-pop landlords could afford this gambit. In San Jose, for example, the monthly loss from rent would be $1,211. The monthly profit -- after adding in the equity ZIllow assumes would come when the property is sold -- is $10,138. So the monthly profit number is $8,927, the difference between the two numbers.
