my grandparents both were classical workers (so apprenticeship for men, nothing for women) and bought their houses, paid off 'til their 50ies (middle income bracket I guess). My parents were academics (probably upper third income bracket), paid off their house 'til their 50ies (my mother converted to housewife after buying the house!). Now, if I were to buy the house my parents live in, I'd have to pay around ~1.5M€ I guess. Not sure how I should do that (with a partner and kids) 'til 50, even being a tad higher in income than my parents. That being said: after the war, housing was destroyed and had to be rebuilt, nowadays it's there already (and more than enough if I look at my family and others around us). The only problem is that now one doesn't need the lower third of incomes to build it and so it has become a playground for financialization games which basically make sure that wealth will steadily be reallocated one family with too many kids at a time...
