My salary didn’t change at all, but homes went up 82%. The money I saved for a down payment and my salary no longer are good enough for this home and many others. This ain’t even a “good” home either. It was a 200k meh average ok home before. Now it’s simply unaffordable

    It’s not as bad in Germany, but pretty close. It’s a very good time to sell houses. And on top of that they are generally much more expensive than American houses to begin with.

      That very much depends on the area and the house itself.
