Is there a time besides maybe the 2010s where people had more disposable income ?
Yeah, bud.
It was called 1940-2007.
Line go down, rent go up. What do?
This is just not true for many people. A home is an asset. When paying a mortgage, you build equity that can be recouped if you decide to sell, or which can be used as collateral for another loan. When renting, you are still paying a mortgage, except is the landlord’s and you own nothing. Rent prices can also change at any time and by large amounts, forcing renters to move. The cost of owning a home is much more stable and predictable.
Homes are also typically bought with a loan and a relatively small down payment, making them a leveraged asset. Eg, if you put down 30k on a 300k house and prices increase 5%, the value of your home just went up 15k. If you instead just put 30k in stocks, you would need an increase of 50% to get the same result.
Regardless, when it comes to housing, your primary concern should always be stability and not “profitability”.
Front page isn’t too bad though, most of the time

Did you not read the fucking source linked?
Ironic.
If you had read the source I linked, you would see that it contradicts your point.

Horseshit.
