Sceptical

Housing commentary focused on worsening affordability as US mortgage rates rose to 7.30%, adding pressure to buyers 11. Craig Shapiro said prices remain too high relative to incomes, wages and borrowing costs, with further price declines likely as new supply pressures existing homes 7. Aidan Garrib and Felix Jauvin linked housing weakness to broader economic weakness, while Lyn Alden described higher rates as creating a two-speed market that favours locked-in homeowners, cash buyers and funds over young families 56. Spain generated a separate political dispute: Bloomberg described government measures aimed at affordability and protests 1, while Daniel Lacalle blamed the crisis on socialist interventionism and the government 23.
