How much of the housing "crisis" is due to increased standards?

Date: February 8th, 2026 4:33 PM Author: Buy your next house instantly with Zellow! I'm selling an investment property right now that's an example of this. It's not very nice, got a lot of wear and tear. No LVP flooring, no granite countertops, nothing like that. But it's livable. Four walls, a roof, plumbing works, etc. It's 3,000 square feet, plenty of room for a family. The house is selling for about $200,000, after sitting on the market for months. It's in a small town but it's about 40 minutes from a large city with lots of jobs.
There are tons and tons of houses like this out there. They're not new or nice, but they provide basic shelter. People lived in houses like this for decades. But it seems that many people would rather hold out for a 500k "starter" home that has all latest features rather than have a 1990s standard of living for cheap. Makes me doubt that there's truly a housing crisis. |

And yes, the town is 50/50 black and white. But still, for 200k, someone's getting a bargain. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5832546&forum_id=2/#49656247) |

Date: February 8th, 2026 5:21 PM Author: AZNgirl talking Selfie with Snow Leopard Handsome most "problems" in US are caused by increasing expectations, if u look at avg size of US house its gone up and up, ppl expect to live in a McMansion even though they are losers
likewise more ppl get fraud college degrees and think they are entitled to a six figure plus jerb
and its not just the US its like this everywhere now even malaysia, nepal, whatever. ppl basically bitching and acting entitled like they deserve shit just cause society has told them get a faggot degree then u are set and shit, its all absurd crap |

Millennials also got it into their heads that living in flyover made them extremely irredeemably Losery, so coasts got more crowded than ever and Cleveland has thousands of Hectares of cheap housing, perhaps some of which with Linoleum flooring. And sure, No Jobs supposedly, but we have the republican caucus to blame for that. |
