As I've been revising the homesteading book, I've been double checking prices. I've seen 20+% price increases on almost every product I recommend, over just 24 months.

Wasn't 2014 right around when the housing market started recovering from the crash? Bought my home around the same time and it's gone up roughly 60%. But it's still below the peak before the bubble popped.
