Hi Mark

Rates have dropped a whole lot since the 1980s, so all other things being the same a person with the same income could afford a lot more house.

I disagree.

A 1500 sq ft house that explodes in price from $70,000
to $350,000+ reflects price appreciation gone nuts.

(re:1987 thru 2004 - my folks home)

The fact - that -

Rates have dropped a whole lot since the 1980s, so all other things being the same a person with the same income could afford a lot more house.

manifest this price appreciation nutty-ness.

regards
John
