Demographics

Albuquerque is expected to have more empty houses than most cities, due to the baby boomer generation leaving their single-family homes behind.

Millennials took advantage of the low mortgage rate landscape in October, boosting their refinance share to a survey-record high, according to Ellie Mae.

The vision underpinning the American dream — of fresh-faced young people buying a first home with a white-picket fence — hasn't held up well.

Most U.S. construction takes place in counties with millennial concentrations, but the rate that new homes are built in these regions is relatively slower than it is elsewhere.

October's deceleration in housing values could be followed by acceleration in 2020, but a growing subset of millennials nevertheless plan to become homeowners in the new year, according to CoreLogic.

Over a quarter of occupied homes are expected to become available in the next two decades with baby boomers aging out, according to Zillow.

From the Tennessee-Kentucky border through coastal North Carolina, here are the 15 metro areas where millennial VA purchase-loan activity increased the most over the past fiscal year.

Inventory shortages, favorable tax policies and a dearth of affordable options caused homeowners to increase the number of years lived in their home, according to a Redfin report.

Gentrification and rapid home price growth have intensified the loss of wealth the African-American community experienced post-crisis, widening the chasm between what white and black borrowers can afford, Redfin found.

Millennial homeownership rates declined between 2009 and 2016 before picking up in 2017, even as the number of households under the age of 35 dropped by over 1 million, a ValuePenguin study found.
