Prices in Colorado have skyrocketed again.

Interesting side note: We were told that Gen/Y-Me were not interested in large homes or anything not approved by their liberal friends, however, every single new home community in Colorado seems to be 2,000 square feet or larger and $300k+.

People who are indentured servants to banks for school loans (voluntary) insurance companies for obamneycare (at point of a gun), are not about to indenture themselves further by taking out a mortgage.

Supply and demand - the market is telling you something. Houses are still overpriced. So are property taxes.

Why are half the posts here making it sound like the Millennials are at fault for making a bad decision here? They can’t freaking afford to buy a house. Isn’t that obvious? This article makes it sound like a lifestyle choice. It isn’t. They are poor because of government policies that take income away from them and force them to buy healthcare and pay taxes etc. They are the screwed generation.

Millennials can be blamed for a lot. This isn’t one of them. The ostrich heads in the sand over tax policy is the only real problem.

They’re being told by employers to move to where the jobs are and to always be ready to move again.

You don’t need an impossible mortgage to buy “eight-dollar gourmet hot dogs”. To hell with borrowing money!
