The economy has further exposed the wealth divide in the housing market, according to a report Redfin released Monday.
The recession has disproportionately affected the economically privileged majority of white workers who have access to remote work, cash, and credit to buy compared with those with low-income jobs, a group largely made up of Blacks and other minorities, according to the report.
“With record-low interest rates and relative job security in spite of the recession, higher-income home buyers are already coming back into the housing market,” said Taylor Marr, Redfin lead economist. “Because of this quick bounce back in home-buying demand, this recession is playing out very differently than the Great Recession, and we’re not seeing much impact on home prices so far.”
