Several factors could be driving the decoupling of house prices and
the homeownership rate. From the housing supply side, there is a
trend toward decreased construction of starter and mid-size housing
units. Developers have increased the construction of large
single-family homes at the expense of other segments in the market.
This limited supply, particularly for starter homes, could result in increased prices for those homes and fewer new homeowners.

And home prices were MUCH lower back then, too.So was income too: in 1984, the US median household income was $26,430/yr. That’s roughly 1/3rd of today’s $74,580/yr today…
The total cost of home ownership, which includes the price and total interestAnd per BLS, $1M in 2023 is equivalent to $342,000 from forty years ago. Which scales out to be roughly the same 1/3rd of today again:
paid, has now pushed the average home cost up to a MILLION DOLLARS!
$1M/$74,580 = 13.4
$342K/$26,430 = 12.9
Less than a 5% difference.

Except I never said that this (the subject YOU brought up: "They can

You tried to make it seem like housing prices rising when interest rates drop was something special to this era.

Sorry.
What do you think?
Answer my question before you ask one.
Well, that is EASY: mortgage rates are at their highest level in TWENTY-THREE YEARS! Add to that that home prices are up FORTY PERCENTYou've failed to answer the question.
in just THREE YEARS!! This is a rate of housing inflation that is at
a historical high. Thank you, Lyin' Biden!!!!
When interest rates drop, housing prices rise.
That's always been the case.
So how is this time DIFFERENT?
Are you REALLY this stupid? REALLY?? Interest rates HAVE NOT dropped, Fool, they are on their way to TRIPLING.
Really depends on one’s time horizon perspective: despite their recent increase off
of 5,000 year lows (as per BoA), current rates are still lower (eg, “had dropped”) than
in the past …

And home prices were MUCH lower back then, too.
So was income too: in 1984, the US median household income was $26,430/yr. That’s roughly 1/3rd of today’s $74,580/yr today…
The total cost of home ownership, which includes the price and total interestAnd per BLS, $1M in 2023 is equivalent to $342,000 from forty years ago. Which scales out to be roughly the same 1/3rd of today again:
paid, has now pushed the average home cost up to a MILLION DOLLARS!
$1M/$74,580 = 13.4
$342K/$26,430 = 12.9
Less than a 5% difference.
Nobody cares what homes cost 40 years ago (after all, first time home buyers weren't even born yet!),
Lyin' Asshole: what they care about is how much they have RISEN under the senile pervert.

Lyin' Asshole: what they care about is how much they have RISEN under the senile pervert.Nope, because what you're trying to avoid is that even as home prices have increased over the
past 23 years, so too have wages. As such, your "it's horrible!" rant lacks the perspective of the
time-value of money factor of "then vs now". That's why I took a simple (costs/income) ratio to

Of course, a _real_ multimillionaire is financially savvy enough to know this truth ahead of time,
so as to not embarrass themselves by saying stupid stuff, because as noted above, the recent

...a decline of a little more than 13%Tommy’s just not good with financial information.
Case in point, US homeownership is 66%, with 38% of these being mortgage-free,
which means just (.66*(1-.38)) = 41% of households have a home mortgage, not 75%.
-hhLOL! That 75% is the percentage of the public that give Lyin' Biden an F on the ECONOMY,
you idiot, NOT those with a home mortgage as you said.
Unaffordability of housing is a MAJOR reason why Americans are FED UP with the senile pervert:
https://www.bankrate.com/homeownership/home-ownership-statistics/
"High inflation is the No. 1 reason that Americans across regions, age, race and income
aren’t feeling financially secure, according to Bankrate’s Financial Freedom Survey.
Housing is a key component in inflation. The shelter category, which includes housing costs,
consistently has been the largest contributor to the Consumer Price Index’s monthly all-items
increase for the past several months."

The median price for houses sold peaked in Q4 2022 at $479,500...
...and since then (Q2 2023), the median price has dropped to $416,100...
...a decline of a little more than 13%Tommy’s just not good with financial information.
Case in point, US homeownership is 66%, with 38% of these being mortgage-free,
which means just (.66*(1-.38)) = 41% of households have a home mortgage, not 75%.

-hhLOL! That 75% is the percentage of the public that give Lyin' Biden an F on the ECONOMY,
you idiot, NOT those with a home mortgage as you said.
First, your " SEVENTY-FIVE PERCENT" that you've claimed is utterly unsubstantiated.
LOL! This is COMMON KNOWLEDGE, Lyin' Asshole - the senile pervert has his WORST NUMBERS for handling of the economy, and YOU KNOW IT!!!!
Unaffordability of housing is a MAJOR reason why Americans are FED UP with the senile pervert:
https://www.bankrate.com/homeownership/home-ownership-statistics/
Which states that "... homeownership...peaked in 2005 when well over two-thirds of
American housing units were “owner-occupied”....This homeownership rate then began
to sink, down to 63.1 percent in 2020 — its lowest level in five decades."
The start of the decline from the 2005 peak happened under Bush (Republican). And the
bottom in 2020 was Trump (Republican, again), despite his claims of a 'roaring' economy.
Again, you IDIOT, the situation is now UNBEARABLE for most prospective new home buyers
they simply CAN'T AFFORD they 20% down payment PLUS the EIGHT PERCENT mortgage payment.
"High inflation is the No. 1 reason that Americans across regions, age, race and income
aren’t feeling financially secure, according to Bankrate’s Financial Freedom Survey.
Housing is a key component in inflation. The shelter category, which includes housing costs,
consistently has been the largest contributor to the Consumer Price Index’s monthly all-items
increase for the past several months."
Except if if one actually goes to that cited survey, one finds that it says:
"About 2 in 5 each blamed insufficient retirement funds (41 percent) and emergency funds
(42 percent) as factors keeping them from feeling financially secure. More than 1 in 4 blamed
high or revolving debt (26 percent) and renting instead of owning or housing affordability (25 percent)."
In other words, that survey's respondents put housing costs down at 4th place.
In your WET DREAMS, idiot. Housing is something you need NOW, not in 40 years.
Just because housing may have _traditionally_ been a major contributor in the past does not
constitute proof that it currently was this time too. Case in point, continuing on that referenced cite:
"Items among those with the most rapid price growth in 2022 included food at elementary
and secondary schools (prices jumped 305%), eggs (59.9%), margarine (43.8%), fuel oil (41.5%)
and airline fares (28.5%). Some of these prices ballooned for reasons beyond broad pandemic-era
inflationary factors such as snarled supply chains, pent-up consumer demand, household cash
infusions, labor shortages and war in Ukraine."

Are you REALLY this STUPID, you IDIOT? Lyin' Biden gets BLAMED for EVERYTHING in your list, as he SHOULD!!!!!
BTW, I don't think that the average consumer puts the price of EGGS or MARGARINE above the cost of housing.

When interest rates go up, house sales decline and prices decline

Hey Fool, home prices AREN'T dropping, but interest rates keep rising.
Oh, look: wrong again, because you didn't bother to check the facts
before posting!
<https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MSPUS>
The median price for houses sold peaked in Q4 2022 at $479,500...
...and since then (Q2 2023), the median price has dropped to $416,100...
...a decline of a little more than 13%
Tommy’s just not good with financial information.
Case in point, US homeownership is 66%, with 38% of these being mortgage-free,
which means just (.66*(1-.38)) = 41% of households have a home mortgage, not 75%.
LOL! That 75% is the percentage of the public that give Lyin' Biden an F on the ECONOMY,
you idiot, NOT those with a home mortgage as you said.
First, your " SEVENTY-FIVE PERCENT" that you've claimed is utterly unsubstantiated.
LOL! This is COMMON KNOWLEDGE, Lyin' Asshole - the senile pervert has his
WORST NUMBERS for handling of the economy, and YOU KNOW IT!!!!
Still unsubstantiated… cry harder!
Unaffordability of housing is a MAJOR reason why Americans are FED UP with the senile pervert:
https://www.bankrate.com/homeownership/home-ownership-statistics/
Which states that "... homeownership...peaked in 2005 when well over two-thirds of
American housing units were “owner-occupied”....This homeownership rate then began
to sink, down to 63.1 percent in 2020 — its lowest level in five decades."
The start of the decline from the 2005 peak happened under Bush (Republican). And the
bottom in 2020 was Trump (Republican, again), despite his claims of a 'roaring' economy.
Again, you IDIOT, the situation is now UNBEARABLE for most prospective new home buyers
they simply CAN'T AFFORD they 20% down payment PLUS the EIGHT PERCENT mortgage payment.
As has been already noted, average new home buyer only puts down 7%.
And repeat buyers aren’t at 20% either: their average is just 17% down.
As such, you’re protesting an objectively non-majority hypothetical scenario.
"High inflation is the No. 1 reason that Americans across regions, age, race and income
aren’t feeling financially secure, according to Bankrate’s Financial Freedom Survey.
Housing is a key component in inflation. The shelter category, which includes housing costs,
consistently has been the largest contributor to the Consumer Price Index’s monthly all-items
increase for the past several months."
Except if if one actually goes to that cited survey, one finds that it says:
"About 2 in 5 each blamed insufficient retirement funds (41 percent) and emergency funds
(42 percent) as factors keeping them from feeling financially secure. More than 1 in 4 blamed
high or revolving debt (26 percent) and renting instead of owning or housing affordability (25 percent)."
In other words, that survey's respondents put housing costs down at 4th place.
In your WET DREAMS, idiot. Housing is something you need NOW, not in 40 years.
Sorry, but it’s derived from *your own choice of citation* that is disagreeing with you.
Just because housing may have _traditionally_ been a major contributor in the past does not
constitute proof that it currently was this time too. Case in point, continuing on that referenced cite:
"Items among those with the most rapid price growth in 2022 included food at elementary
and secondary schools (prices jumped 305%), eggs (59.9%), margarine (43.8%), fuel oil (41.5%)
and airline fares (28.5%). Some of these prices ballooned for reasons beyond broad pandemic-era
inflationary factors such as snarled supply chains, pent-up consumer demand, household cash
infusions, labor shortages and war in Ukraine."
<https://www.cnbc.com/2023/01/12/heres-the-inflation-breakdown-for-december-2022-in-one-chart.html#>
Are you REALLY this STUPID, you IDIOT? Lyin' Biden gets BLAMED for EVERYTHING in your list, as he SHOULD!!!!!
Despite the fact that the majority of the stimulus money which caused the post-pandemic
inflation was signed off by none other than your bully boy, Trump.
BTW, I don't think that the average consumer puts the price of EGGS or MARGARINE above the cost of housing.
Doesn’t matter, because that’s what your own choice of citation says. Maybe you should learn more about a topic before flapping your lips.
No, it is YOU that needs to learn the basic economic facts, Lyin' Asshole: https://www.wsj.com/economy/housing/theres-never-been-a-worse-time-to-buy-instead-of-rent-bd3e80d9?mod=hp_lead_pos7

Hey Fool, home prices AREN'T dropping, but interest

the facts before posting!
<https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MSPUS>
The median price for houses sold peaked in Q4 2022 at
$479,500...
...and since then (Q2 2023), the median price has dropped
to $416,100...
...a decline of a little more than 13%
What is relevant, of course, is HOW MUCH home prices have
RISEN under Lyin' Biden, which is UNDENIABLE. The average
price data is also subject to the mix of sales of high end
homes vs starter homes. The bottom line is that inflation
has driven up the costs of EVERYTHING going into building a
home, which translates into higher prices. And the senile
pervert is DIRECTLY responsible for inflation (except in
your warped minds, who must apologize for everything the
idiot FUCKS UP!).
Sunshine.... You said: "home prices AREN'T dropping"
...agreed?
Well it turns out they ARE dropping, and have been since they
peaked in Q4 2022.
Right: year-over-year existing home prices are UP:

Median is not affected by high-priced homes as much as the average - now it's your turn, Fool.For just what, precisely? Because Tommy just made Alan’s point for him.
So would it be for debunking Tommy’s “20% down” claim for first time homebuyers?
Because the average there is just 6%, as per:
< https://www.bankrate.com/mortgages/down-payment-for-first-time-homebuyers/>
Similarly, are the prices of the homes being purchased by first time homebuyers
closer to the Median or Average? Here’s the relevant data there:
“ The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reported that the median price of
homes purchased by first-time homebuyers was $215,000 in 2019.”
< https://www.thebalancemoney.com/average-price-of-starter-home-4172916>
And this is before noting that the reason why mortgage rates under Trump dropped
down to 3% was because of CoVid, as illustrated by that market bottom occurring in
late 2020/Jan 2021: if one goes back to earlier in Trump’s administration to 2018
(Since the economy was already slowing prior to CoVid with the manufacturing segment
slipped into a technical recession in 2019), his 30yr mortgage rate was at 4.54%.
Thus, it’s not hard at all to see that the raw 3% vs 4.54% mortgage rate cost difference
per $200K on a 30yr is $843 vs $1018 = +$175/month (+21%): just this one accounting
slight-of-hand cherry-picking attempt by Tommy is most of his claimed increase in costs.

Hey Fool, home prices AREN'T dropping, but interest

Right: year-over-year existing home prices are UP:

That's MEAN, not median.
Do you even understand the difference, Sunshine?
home buyers…”
“Tommy keeps on showing everyone that he really is profoundly bad >> at even _basic_ financial principles!”
LOL! Here is a challenge to you libtards: figure the TOTAL cost, including ALL interest, of buying the average US home under Trump (3%
30 year fixed) vs Biden (8%).
Before anyone does that, please show us you understand why the median is
a better yardstick when the discussion (as chosen by you) is "new home buyers".
Median is not affected by high-priced homes as much as the average - now it's your turn, Fool.For just what, precisely? Because Tommy just made Alan’s point for him.
So would it be for debunking Tommy’s “20% down” claim for first time homebuyers?
Because the average there is just 6%, as per:
< https://www.bankrate.com/mortgages/down-payment-for-first-time-homebuyers/>
Similarly, are the prices of the homes being purchased by first time homebuyers
closer to the Median or Average? Here’s the relevant data there:
“ The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reported that the median price of
homes purchased by first-time homebuyers was $215,000 in 2019.”
< https://www.thebalancemoney.com/average-price-of-starter-home-4172916>
And this is before noting that the reason why mortgage rates under Trump dropped
down to 3% was because of CoVid, as illustrated by that market bottom occurring in
late 2020/Jan 2021: if one goes back to earlier in Trump’s administration to 2018
(Since the economy was already slowing prior to CoVid with the manufacturing segment
slipped into a technical recession in 2019), his 30yr mortgage rate was at 4.54%.
Thus, it’s not hard at all to see that the raw 3% vs 4.54% mortgage rate cost difference
per $200K on a 30yr is $843 vs $1018 = +$175/month (+21%): just this one accounting
slight-of-hand cherry-picking attempt by Tommy is most of his claimed increase in costs.
Not sure exactly what point the Fool was trying to make, ..
At the end of Trump's term …

Not sure exactly what point the Fool was trying to make, ..
Merely how you were exaggerating in your partisan “doom!” scheme.
At the end of Trump's term …
Was during CoVid, where there were extraordinary measures being taken to stimulate
the economy, and thus low interest rates .. heck, in the EU, some countries rates
literally went negative.
…which is also why median prices are essentially the same as they were in May 2022:
