US House prices are rising at a record pace
but incomes aren’t keeping up, which is making home ownership less and less affordable.
The median American household would need 32.1% of its income to cover mortgage payments on a median-priced home, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta.
That is the most since November 2008, when the same outlays would eat up 34.2% of income.
