I would have to agree with the post its a great time for young people to buy a home simply because their are so many places in the country where home prices have become attractive. Thirty year fixed rate mortgage rates are now under four percent. I can remember years back when housing was king long before the housing bust. Everybody had the expection that home prices would always increase. Even myself as far as that go's almost believed in this fairy tale. And it was just that a fairy tale as long as it lasted.

Their were pockets of weakness in texas during the oil bust of the 1980's but over all prices increased steadly from 1945 to about 2006. One giant bubble
