6 Reasons …
Why we are not headed for a bubble
• 1. Mortgage standards are nothing like they were back
then.
• 2. Prices aren’t soaring out of control.
• 3. We don’t have a surplus of homes on the market. We
have a shortage.
6 Reasons…
Why we are not headed for the bubble
• 4. New construction isn’t making up the difference in
inventory needed. if we compare today to right before the
housing crash, we can see that an overabundance of newly
built homes was a major challenge then, but isn’t now.
• 5. Houses aren’t becoming too expensive to buy. Fifteen
years ago, prices were high, wages were low, and mortgage
rates were over 6%. Today, prices are still high. Wages,
however, have increased, and the mortgage rate is about 3%.
6. People are equity rich, not tapped out.
