It took nearly a decade, but Guillermo Gonzalez is a homeowner again. “It’s not a brand, brand-spanking new house,” he said, “but it’s very comfortable.” Last year, he and his wife closed on a $129,000 2-bedroom house. Their recession story is a typical one: In 2004, they bought a house outside Miami with little money down. They borrowed to fund a lifestyle that was more than they could afford on his salary working in sales for a liquor distributor. But when Florida’s housing market collapsed, they couldn’t refinance. When @ニューヨーク・タイムズ caught up with Guillermo in June 2008, he’d just received his $1,033 tax rebate, part of President George W. Bush’s effort to stimulate the slumping economy. It was not enough. But gradually, things began to improve. Guillermo got a job selling auto parts and worked to rebuild his credit. Still, the Gonzalezes are being cautious. “We’re doing it one step at a time,” said Guillermo, who was photographed here by @ross_man_tle. | A decade ago this week, Wall Street imploded. @ニューヨーク・タイムズ reporters interviewed hundreds of people during the Great Recession. We spoke with some of them again; visit the link in our profile to see more stories.
