I wanted to clarify that i personally do find that renting is not something anyone should feel “less” proud about.
i was definitely speaking in terms of general public opinion.
I for one think that renting is often the smart move, so long as you are saving well and building rock solid credit while doing it.
Im a guy though so the idea of renting sits well with me.I am speaking to you as matter of fact though, that 8/10 women, especially mothers, do not want to rent. I might get called out here for this gender bias, but there is a feeling that home ownership provides that strikes at the heart of what it is to make a home for a family.
Overall it appears that this pyschological urge to own, is not so prevalent right now anyway, so this is all a moot point. the fact is that almost nothing is moving, and even foreclosures are selling at the medians we’ll see 6-12 months from now. Not too many people are foolish enough to overpay with this tidal wave of bad news airing 24 7.

January 16, 2008 at 10:20 AM #136756crParticipantAgreed dots. As news continues and worsens, people will be less likely to buy, inventories build, values drop.
As government, lenders, and potential buyers overreact to the dilemma it will deepen the correction.
I plan to buy when I know tells me it’s a bad idea. I think there are still some people who think a house will make you rich.
