Why the Housing Market is not Headed for another 2008

There are three ways that today’s housing market is different from 2008:

  1. The supply of home for sale is still lower than the amount for a “normal” market.
  2. Lending standards are stricter than 2008.
  3. The foreclosure rate is lower because buyers are better qualified and less likely to default on their loans.
