Most people owned a little land as most of America were still farmers. They had small amounts of money at different times but spent it for necessities. A relatively few people (mostly in the East) had money—gold and paper currency backed by gold. If the price of property was high, only rich could afford to buy it. The home mortgage system did not then exist, so there was no way that the average land owner could get enough money to buy land to expand farms or buy for children unless the price was low. Today, most land owners want the price of land to be high. The financial system in use at the time makes the difference.
