[quote:Doomwaffles:MV8xODUzNjg3XzMwOTQ1NDk1Xzk4OEREQjM2] Same here in my country, people just can't afford houses anymore and prices just keep rising inspite of what we are told t hrough the media. I've noticed that rend for a while. Same for "the Euro" in general, the currency. Everyone was told repeatedly, even PROMISED several times on many occasions that the Euro would not lead to increase in prizes. I have still to meet one Belgian that thinks life has become cheaper since the Euro... . EVERYTHING became more expensive since the Euro. That includes houses. [/quote]

Recovery? What Recovery????
The U.S. homeownership rate fell to the lowest level in 15 years in the first quarter as borrowers lost homes to foreclosure and tighter inventory and credit kept buyers off the market.
The ownership rate may drop below 64 percent by the end of 2015 and stay there for years, Scott Simon, the mortgage bond head of Pacific Investment Management Co. in Newport Beach, California, said in an e-mail today.
“It will be lower by 2017,” he said. “It will be lower in 2020.”
