*CHART NOT SHOWING BECAUSE OF LINK RESTRICTION*

The chart above shows the price of a house in the U.S. if it were bought with silver.

In 1975, the average price of a house was $42,600. An ounce of silver was $4.09. Therefore, it would take 10,415.65 ounces of silver to buy one house.

Houses then lost 68% of their value by 1979. The price of a house in that year was 3,294.64 ounces of silver.

The bull market is silver-priced housing lasted until 2003. Between 1979 and 2003, the silver price of a house increased 1,412.5%.

Between 2003 and 2010, the silver price of a house decreased 73.35%.

The original post also has a graph of housing prices in U.S. Dollars, gold, and silver.

It looks like the real value of a house was actually decreasing when the nominal price of a home was skyrocketing.

Because I'm new, the forum won't let me post the link. The post is from CQCA Business Research's website. Sorry about that.
