Homeownership Drifts Further Out of Reach as Mortgage Rates Rise

The New York Times reports that rising mortgage rates are pushing homeownership further out of reach for many Americans. Higher borrowing costs are adding to the strain on an already expensive housing market, making it harder for would-be buyers to afford homes and worsening concerns about housing affordability and the broader economy.
Why now: Rising mortgage rates are renewing public anxiety about housing affordability.
