@doloresaquines1529 I think the writer above was making the point that the earnings of both partners were taken into account when previously only one (the male) had his salary considered whether a mortgage would be granted.Since both partners incomes are now considered this made it easier for married couples to meet the criterior for the granting of a mortgage.This played a part in the house building boom after the second war and ever since.Price increases followed but those on the ladder have benefitted as will those still wishing to buy.The best investment in the longterm a couple can make.Long may it continue.
