The Great Recession and the Real Estate Bubble
Between 2000 and 2006, the real estate market was booming due in large part to easy mortgage terms. Countless people bought into the market driving prices up and spurring major new home construction.

The crises affected every part of the US economy causing arguably the worst economic depression in the Unites States since the 1930s. Examiner
