Housing Affordabilty

Housing affordabilty is at historical lows, not since the 70's has it been this affordable.  Housing affordabilty is determined by looking at average housing prices along with mortgage interest rates (30 year) and determining what percentage of a homeowners monthly income is consumed by their house payment.  Currently it's at 13.6% compared to 23% in 2006.  Take a look at the attached slide presentation.
