We need to start building affordable housing. And by that, I don't mean government assistance. Scale the homes back down in square footage. in 1970, the average home was about 1500sf, 3b/2b home, 8'ceilings.
Now, every one expects a starter house to be 4b/4b 2500sf, 10' ceilings because low rates allowed it.
So true. Around here, nobody has built a reasonable 1,500sqft 3bd/2bath house in decades.

Because it's impossible to convince the average white girl that a 1200 Sq ft 1.5 bath house is perfectly serviceable for a family of 4.
Mind blowing to them as well that you would ever consider having guests over at such a shack!
Expectations are more of a problem than anything else these days. Wives must work to make enough money to afford the absurd standard of living considered to be "basic" these days.
