Homeownership In The U.S. Has Plummeted, But Not By Choice

Its not just one issue that has pushed homeownership at its lowest point in almost 50 years. Here are 6 factors, when you combine them all it makes sense!

  • Incomes are starting to increase, but they haven’t matched the rise in housing prices.
  • New homes coming on the market aren’t priced or sized for many buyers.
  • Foreclosures are still a pervasive problem. 
  • Unprecedented student loan debt might make it harder to make the leap to homeownership.
  • If you don’t have perfect credit, it’s tough to qualify for a mortgage.
  • High rents make it harder to save enough for a down payment.
