And this!

Homebuyers in nearly half of the country need to earn at least six figures to be able to purchase a home.

Nationally, the typical household would need to earn $99,000 to buy a median-priced home of $415,500 in February. This also accounts for property taxes and insurance costs, and assumes a 10% down payment. However, the typical household income in America was only about $75,000 in 2022, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

“For many people who want to buy a house, it’s just not feasible right now,” says senior economic research analyst Hannah Jones. “Even for households that can afford a home, the monthly cost is going to be much higher than it was two, three, four years ago.”

Let’s buy this?

Wow!

According to a recent report, the inventory of homes priced between $200,000 and $350,000 has surged by 20.6% compared to the same month last year, surpassing growth in all other price brackets.

Within this range, the median price stands at $285,000, representing substantial savings of $130,500 compared to the overall median home price.

So where are all these modestly priced homes hiding? Mainly in the South, which typically has more affordable listings than other parts of the country. The South’s recent surge in budget-friendly listings is a substantial increase from just a few years earlier. It now accounts for over half of America’s available inventory in the $200,000–$350,000 range.
