Aikenomics: Wrong housing market conversation could do real damage

Original: Aikenomics: Mortgage rates didn’t kill housing market, but wrong conversation might

A column under the Aikenomics banner argues that mortgage rates alone have not killed the housing market, but that the public conversation around them might. The piece suggests that misdirected discussion about affordability and rates could shape buyer behaviour and policy responses more than rates themselves. It adds to ongoing debate over why home sales have slowed and what is really to blame.

Why now: Housing affordability and mortgage rates remain a live concern for buyers, sellers and policymakers.
