“Millennial homebuyers are no longer a trend on the industry horizon. In fact, they are the new, first-time homebuyers of today. However, only about half of recent millennial buyers were satisfied with the number of options of available homes in their market or price range. Affordable housing continues to be a growing issue. 43% of those surveyed indicated they couldn’t afford to buy a new home or are concerned they won’t be able to.”- Frank Martell President and CEO of CoreLogic
