About this document
U.S. Housing Market Trends 1990-2008 by Sudhir Prajapati is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Housing prices were relatively stable in the 1990s but rose sharply between 2002 and 2006, increasing 87% before declining 25% by late 2008. The default rate on mortgages fluctuated around 2% until 2006 when it began rising rapidly, reaching over 5% in late 2008. Similarly, the foreclosure rate was stable until increasing sharply in 2006, driven partly by rising interest rates on adjustable rate mortgages.
