Right now and for the last few years it is has been mostly the latter, working class and blue collar types, their dream of owning their own home coming true. From my perspective, hard working people who make good decisions will always succeed, and in this very good economic times they are buying new homes in record numbers.
Lazy and unmotivated people will always make excuses for failure.
Poor planing and decision making has repercussions.

Lots of smart people holding onto tracts, waiting for that right moment
