Thank you, Steely Tom. I was hoping someone would speak up for the folks who might actually be able to afford homes this way.
The nerve of those homebuilders! Trying to cut down their costs. Makes it seem like they’re a business or something - can’t have that on a Conservative message board.
Get a grip, folks.
Huh, the type of ‘McMansions’ going up around here aren’t affordable by the average working couple. And quite a few of the ones who did somehow manage to obtain a mortgage on them are now finding themselves in sheriff’s auction, unable to pay that mortgage.
I truly wish affordable, reasonable housing *was* going up around here. I look at so many of the developments in what was beautiful farmland a few years ago and think ‘Why do 4 people need a house that huge?’
