| | 🏡 It’s a Baby Boomer (Housing) World… | … And we’re all living in it. | This prolonged period of housing affordability crisis and much higher mortgage rates have skewed the demographics of home buyers. | According to the 2025 Home Buyers and Sellers Generational Trends Report from the National Association of Realtors (NAR), baby boomers made up 42% of home buyers in 2024. | That’s taking the checkered flag with ease ahead of Millennials (29%) and Gen Xers (24%). | Wrote Sherwood News: “Part of the season might be that older cohorts were able to skip the mortgage market entirely. Indeed, boomer buyers are increasingly purchasing homes entirely with cash, with half of older boomers (70-78 years old) and 40% of younger boomers (60-69 years old) bypassing financing altogether.” | Boomers are also dominating the sellers market (53%) and own about 51% of all household wealth in the United States (vs. about 10% for Millennials). | | 📊 Stat of the Day | | | 💰️ Deal Alert: Today’s Top Deals | | | | | 🎙️ Podcast | | Full Show: Big Changes at Dollar Tree and Best Places To Buy Gas |
