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

    If Big Macs, houses, gas and college tuition all went up, it’s time to realize these are not all in bubbles and instead realize due to inflation your salary has been halved.
