Low interest rates perpetuate the bubble as well. Especially for those who look at the mortgage based on a monthly amount (lets assume 2500 a month, 10% down, 30 years). At 6% interest you can afford slightly under 390k, while at 2% you can afford close to 590k. 10% interest puts you at 270k. Ideally we would want sound money to return with private businesses competing on interest without any gov involvement.
