“I read some stats the other day, and it said, since 2012 the average income, salaried individual family income, has gone up 17 percent, yet the average home price has gone up 76 percent,” Ben Kinney, CEO of Ben Kinney Companies, said.
“You wake up and say, we have an affordability problem, so we have to start shifting into finding individuals that can either afford our average [sale] prices or work into the next segments of the market.”
