"Homebuyers must ‘learn to live’ with near-7% mortgage rates, says RE/MAX chairman"
Umm....
1. If you are waiting for rates to drop back down near to 2%, you will be waiting for a very long/indefinite period of time.
2. Rates in the 70's/80's/90's were close to 20%, and this when wages were lower even with inflation factored in, so 7% range is very low compared to past times.
3. People are okay with signing off and accepting credit cards and personal loans with rates upwards of 30%, but are afraid of 7% range mortgage rates?

I think everyone is leery of another housing market bubble.
I do get your point about the CC interest, though. But! I know a lot of people that are living day to day on their Credit Cards to supplement their paychecks.
