If the houses aren’t sitting on the market, people can afford them. I think what actually happened is people realized that housing was underpriced. Which is insane in terms of the raw numbers, but it’s the truth: lack of supply along with increasing numbers of buyers means that the market really is that hot.

Sucks to be late to this party.
