It does nothing to address the affordability question. What good is a mortgage rate freeze if you still can't afford to buy that home?

You buy one you can afford, and you take that into consideration before entering into a legally binding contract. I like to think that if I earn more money, I can buy things that others cannot. Expensive homes are not an entitlement, they are a LUXURY ITEM.

We're NOT talking about mansions! In California, we're talking about homes in middle class neighborhoods. One or two bedroom homes between 1000 and 1500 sq ft. They're overpriced for average American families. The two earner kind with two kids.
