This isn’t true at all. Combined my wife and I make 70k. We saved for 3 years for down payment and bought a house.

Alternative headline: interest rates are slightly higher now than in 2020.

Literally all I want is my own house. That’s all I want.

Meanwhile, Elon gets a $52B bonus and Kroger just posted $32B in profits. Wait for the trickle?

That’s because we hate big government, but we somehow got the largest one in history without any of the benefits.

Saw my chance to be a homeowner in 2023, took it and now I am house poor. Having a mortgage is way more stressful than having to pay rent. I am fortunate but my stress level increase 3 folds.

But let capital disposable income also increased a lot: 2020: $50k -> 2024: $62,152
Remember this is per capital, which means for dual income it’d be $124k which is well above $106k.
I guess the constrained supply and growth of income are both the reason, not just “America”

Is it more affordable in Europe? I remember growing up hearing how people couldn’t afford houses and had to live with their parents well into their 30s. Seems like we borrowed the wrong thing from that continent !

Private equity owns 20% of all houses

Yeah, because the law of “supply and demand” has been thrown out forever. Lumber prices came back down but house prices will only go up. In other news the stock market is now going to only go up forever.

Zillow is the reason the housing market is the way it is… they would buy houses at market value, then pay 5 times the market for the next 10. They repeat this process over and over, inflating the home values all over America…
Zillow should be shutdown for bad business practices…

And people still want to try and argue with me that things are better for the average American from 2020-2024 than 2016-2020. Baffling.

‘Free’ market: Fucks most of us really forcefully
Many of us: Um, I don’t like this capitalism thing anymore
Capitalists: ***shocked Pikachu face***

Fun fact, you can mail live bugs to your bank. You can also go in person and harass them for exploiting poor and middle class Americans and using our money to fund the 1%

Meanwhile the rich tripled their value from 2015 to 2024
All hail capitalism

I’m thankful to live in a low cost area where my rent is 355 dollars a month, all utilities included. My dad is pushing me to have a family and all that nonsense. I’m content being a single HAPPY man living where I am now for the rest of my life because I can actually afford it. I don’t need a spouse or anything like that because I don’t want to make my life harder or more expensive. Hey dad, go try and buy a house in today’s market, lemme know how that goes. In all seriousness, I love pops dearly but I’m not having a family cuz I don’t want them going through what I go through every day of my life or what I’ve done in the past, suffering in hardship and poverty and having to drag myself outta the hole. Don’t make your life harder guys. You got this

It’s always the individuals fault though. Where’s the rest of it where it ascribes personal responsibility for market and economic conditions
