Affordable Counties for Homeowners<\/h1>\n
\n
\n

\n

Home prices surging has been squeezing\u00a0housing affordability. Seventy-five percent of the U.S. counties recently analyzed had less affordable median-priced single-family homes in the third quarter compared to their historical averages, according to ATTOM Data Solutions, a real estate data firm.<\/p>\n

Home prices are rising faster than wages in most of the country. Record low mortgage rates<\/a>\u00a0have helped home buyers offset some of these higher prices.<\/p>\n

Major ownership costs on the typical home accounted for nearly 25% of the average national wage of $64,857 in the third quarter, according to the study. ATTOM\u2019s report factors housing affordability for average wage earners by calculating the amount of income needed to meet monthly homeownership expenses, including mortgage, property taxes, and insurance on a median-priced home. It assumes a 20% down payment and a 28% maximum debt-to-income ratio.<\/p>\n

Still, while housing affordability has been stretched, major homeownership expenses on a typical home are still affordable to average local wage earners in 53% of the counties analyzed, according to the report.<\/p>\n
