@Russell Brazil definitely regionalized... in my two markets were I build new construction Charleston SC and Portland Oregon.. long gone is the no money down buyer.. they still happen I just sold one in Charleston on a VA loan but its a 350k house. and we get the occasional FHA but on the subdivision I just built in Portland in 2016 27 new homes priced from 330 to 400k... ( entry level ) to first time move up.My wife is my broker ( always recommend anyone getting in the business to have their own license) I had her run a report on financing and what was used.4 sold for cash1 VA3 FHA minimum down19 sold conventinal with 10% or more down.IN charleston other than the one VA loan same thing some cash a few FHA majority conventionalso to speak to your points we have a much stronger buying segment than pre 08.. and I am sorry for those that have crappy credit and can't buy right now.. but they simply need to clean up their act. this attitude that every american deserves to own a home is flawed thinking.. every american who can manage thier personal credit and keep good an stable jobs.. deserves a home if they so choose..
