No Lie, The Housing Market Really Is Stacked Against Millennials

Description

Rising housing costs and mounting student debt mean millennials are buying different types of homes than their parents did. According to Business Insider, they're often often waiting longer, and buying before marriage. Some live with their parents to save cash so they don't have to wait years for homeownership. Millennials face house prices 39% higher than their parents did in the '80s, and 70% higher than what a buyer faced in the '60s. And rent prices are up nearly 50% over the last half century!

Ending a six-month run of spiraling demand, sales of existing homes in the US contracted in November. It's being read as a signal that rising prices and historically low supply is finally slowing the housing market's rally. According to Business Insider, the National Association of Realtors says home sales fell 2.5% last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 6.69 million. The median price for existing homes fell to a six-month low as well, dipping month-over-month to $310,800 from $313,100. Even so, the pace is still up 25.8% from the year-ago period.

How Low Interest Rates Are Pushing Americans Out Of The Housing Market

The price of US housing in the third quarter of 2020 saw the biggest year-over-year jump since 2013. Markets Insider reports the median price for a single-family home rose 12%, mainly fueled by record-low mortgage interest rates. But there's a downside: Not every American is benefitting from the rally. In fact, Q3 saw the proportion of first-time homebuyers drop to just 31%. That's the lowest share in over 30 years. As home prices significantly outpace median family income growth, more Americans have been pushed out of the housing market and have had to delay homeownership.
