No one wants to buy a home. Whose fault is it?

New figures for existing-home sales show inventory is up and prices are down. The National Association of Realtors blames you.

    no reason

    since home prices went up for no apparent reason, why shouldn't they fall? as for me, i paid 250K for a house that would have sold for 150K five years ago. as a result, i have no money left over to buy a car, have children, go to grad school, etc. not that i could rent for less. it doesn't make sense to me how prices could have gone up so much when the population didn't.
