The risks of buying with record low interest rates

[Aecetia]

FYI-

The tax was imposed in 1898 to help pay for the Spanish-American War. It was designed as a tax on wealthy Americans, back when phone service was considered a luxury.

High interest rates do not mean high prices. High interest rates merely mean credit is scarce. Global wage arbitrage pretty much guarantees nobody is getting a big pay raise anytime soon. That was the 70’s.

High interest rates are your friend if you are a first time buyer. It means lower prices, not higher. Especially when combined with stricter lending standards which are sure to accompany the higher interest rates. Coming soon to an unwilling lender (who’s busy hoarding cash) near you!

Aecetia, two points for you. I was about to reply when I saw your post about the Spanish American war. Good form but then I’d expect it from someone with your screen name (the goddess of fair trade and honest merchants).

High interest rates do not mean high prices.

Certainly high interest rates will exert downward pressure on prices of those goods which are purchased on credit. However, interest rates are high in inflationary environments (like the US in the 70s). Although salaries lag inflation, they eventually catch up. I know this isn’t a pleasant thought but it may occur, especially since the US is so dependent on capital inflow from foreign countries. If they want to keep selling t-bills, they won’t be able to keep rates low forever.
