He did, Hughes has a home here and a few other guys, but it makes more sense to rent unless you get a long-term extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop being an obsessive fanboy. Seriously. Who the hell looks up local records to see if a QB bought a home in the area?

teef Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 fortunately purchasing a house in wny is a pretty cost effective process. it can be cheaper than rent depending on what you're looking for. hell, i know a few people who have multiple kids/friends going to school at the same place, so they buy a house for the time the kids are there. cheaper than living in the dorms/apartments, and they sell it for a slight profit.

WNY doesn't have the greatest real estate appreciation and has high taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said in interview that he visited, but he prefers So. Cali. Said when he goes home, people keep wanting to buy him dinner and he gains weight. Said in So Cali “no one cares about football” so he can just train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNY doesn't have the greatest real estate appreciation and has high taxes. Man signed a four-year $21M fully guaranteed contract with $13.5M up front and another $1.4 salary/bonus last year. Financially, it might be smarter for him to live in his parent’s basement and drive a $5k dented van like Kirk Cousins does, but he doesn’t have to drive all his decisions by what’s “best”. He can afford to buy himself a WNY house, a truck, and a Range Rover if he wants to, pay off his family’s farm debt and float his dad the $$ for a few deep wells, and still have plenty left to invest as long as he doesn’t go too nuts otherwise. The other side of “not great real estate appreciation” is you can buy a very nice house for much less $$ than other parts of the country. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I remembered seeing that on one of the promo videos I think White did, and Beasley talked about his house and using his playoff $$ to buy some kind of ATV he could use to wheel his kids around his property in his podcast I ‘spect it may not make sense as an investment, but comparing a couple years mortgage & taxes vs. a couple years rent of a high-end place probably comes out in the wash, even if it loses some $$ on resale. For a celebrity, owning vs renting probably has some security/privacy benefits, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tre has over 100 mil in earnings coming his way so buying a home which if he stays in buffalo the rest of his career he probably keeps the place for every time he comes back here post retirement.
