>>60549607 (OP)I think we're in uncharted territory, as everything America has been done through the lens of boomer economics. In other words, the world order is shifting due to the realities of technology and time, and that means the good ol' days of 3% interest rates and tolerable prices are at an end. What this means for home purchasing and attempting to jump start the American economy, I don't know, but as the system continues to flounder expect nothing to change and expect something that targets the younger generation to "help" them purchase homes.
This means buy in if you feel comfortable with your monthly payments and don't want to be a rentoid forever. If you're waiting and saving because the monthly would be too high, or your job is on the cutting block, wait and pray. I expect the system to morph incrementally, NOT collapse, which means all those poor zoomers and millennials will be "acceptable collateral." I don't think the system is dumb enough to destroy the "middle class" in so far that they don't have access to homes. Weaker retirements and wages, yes, but no access to homes? What kind of depopulation/mass city migration scenario would need to happen for entire populations to be priced out forever from having a place to raise a family, especially the productive? I don't think the elite have the power to rug pull the world into something like from The Matrix.
