Re : " you could buy a house in 1913 for ..." -- have you ever seen details regarding how many square feet the average house (in the U.S.) was ... at various points in the past ? The one data point I remember was : the average house some time around 1940 or 1950 was between 900 and 1000 square feet. (This is sort of embarrassing, but ...) I am not sure I have ever even SEEN a house that size. --------------------------------------------- Also (just like automobiles now as compared to a long time ago) -- think about how much legislated regulation / safety features are forced upon home builders / home buyers now, all of which vastly increase the price.
