Date: September 5th, 2025 12:14 PM Author: Violent crimson travel guidebook The Fed controls a short term rate. Short term rates have fallen a lot. The Fed cannot lower long term rates automatically. Mortgage rates are tied to 10 year rates, not short term rates. Long term rates have gone up in recent months.

Date: September 4th, 2025 8:27 PM Author: lavender depressive fat ankles I think the argument is that interest rates materially affect people of certain age brackets.
So in 2021 someone on an $80,000 salary could afford a starter home - now its $150,000.
So you have a significant number of couples who maybe had a baby at age 30, and have been living in an apartment saving, and they still can't afford a house now 5 years later - even though they've been working hard and have 2 kids.
In a sense you're denying a huge portion of people, cursed basically by their birth year, access to a home in order for...what?
We're not all in this equally - not at all. |

|
Date: September 5th, 2025 6:44 PM Author: lavender depressive fat ankles For most people, the "price" of home is a component made up of 2/3 interest rate and 1/3 principal.
It's not realistic that housing prices going down will make things more affordable - as we've seen so far, it just means boomers buy them in cash and use them as third homes. |
