Other interesting findings in the report include:

  • Interest rates have remained low, and even though home prices have appreciated around the country, they haven't greatly outpaced rental appreciation.
  • Home prices would have to appreciate by a range of over 23% in Honolulu (HI), up to over 45% in Ventura County (CA), to reach the tipping…
