Welp. Interest rates are staying steady (at least) until the next announcement in October.

I don’t feel like inflation has decreased. Housing is still exorbitant. But there haven’t been mass layoffs, so we’ve got that going for us.

    In fairness, that is happening because people are afraid to buy houses right now.

    A lot of people have been priced out of home ownership. Even if they could qualify for a loan, there isn’t housing available at reasonable prices in a number of major metros.

        If I were to buy a house somewhere and rent it out, the rent would cover the mortgage not my own rent to live somewhere else.
