This effectively prices out families on single income.
Really? What if that income is $180,000 or more??

Sure you can buy a home for a 2-3x income ratio. Stop whinging
Not the same quality of house you could buy for 2-3x income 20 years ago.

Thanks for your helpful response anyway.
Nothing has changed, just the expectations of those looking to purchase these days.
Demonstrably incorrect. All the statistics show a doubling of the house price to income ratio over the past 20 years. Dual incomes are now the norm, and prices have risen accordingly. What used to be affordable on one income now requires two.

Yet there are still those on single incomes doing it. Funny that!
Of course some can do it. That was never my point. My point is that it's twice as difficult now. Although people can do it, it's twice as hard. The type of property that the average person can afford on one income is only half as good as it used to be, relative to the total housing pool.

Instead of waisting your time rubbishing property on a property forum. Just sit back,save and wait for things to improve. If that's what you believe will happen.
Where did I rubbish property, or claim I know what will happen? I don't know what will happen. The situation might get worse. Given the ineptitude of our governments I wouldn't be surprised if houses became even more unaffordable. That doesn't change the fact that they are more unaffordable now than they used to be.
