New York CNN —Sheila Bair, who had a front row seat to the subprime mortgage meltdown, is worried today’s housing market is unsustainably hot.
A housing bubble can form when prices rise to unsustainable levels.
“I see much less speculation in the housing market today, thank goodness,” said Bair.
‘Dizzying heights’Legendary investor Jeremy Grantham shares Bair’s concern about a housing bubble.
In many ways, today’s housing market is the polar opposite of the one that preceded the Great Recession.
