Well, there would be a lot of situations here where someone might or might not be able to buy a home. I noticed it did not specifically say a NEW home. It doesn’t matter to me; I’ll consider myself lucky to be able to continue to live in my rather low-class. but adequate place where I have lived for several years, if I can somehow keep up with the maintenance & ever-increasing utilities on it...doing this on a S.S. salary.
I guess I have resided in my lifetime of maybe upper middle and lower middle class homes. My best living was the summer I lived in a tent with one bare light bulb suspended overhead and a wood pallet floor. Just a perfect work arrangement. Would be pleased at this advanced age to do it all again.
