Well the smart people at Harvard have chimed in on the housing crisis with the following:
Boston, MA (AHN) - The current housing crisis appears to be the worst faced by the nation in 5 decades, according to the Harvard University's Joint Center on Housing Studies released Monday.
In its yearly State of the Nation's Housing report, the university wrote, "The national median single-family home price fell (for) the first time in 40 years of recordkeeping, leaving several million homeowners with properties worth less than their mortgages."
Home prices have tumbled down by over 18 percent since the last two years, while foreclosure rates hit a 34-year record-high. As a result there are over 10.7-month supply of unsold existing units and another 11-month supply of new homes, which is a 30-year record.
The Harvard researchers do not yet see an end to the housing crisis plaguing the U.S
