If you had to guess, how old is the average homebuyer today? You might be surprised! Just a few years ago, the typical buyer was 36. Fast forward to now, and that number has skyrocketed to 56. What’s causing this dramatic shift? In this episode, we break down the changing real estate landscape—how inflation, interest rates, and generational trends are reshaping who’s buying homes (and why).

We cover:

• The staggering 20-year jump in the average homebuyer age—what’s behind it?
• How rising interest rates have sidelined younger buyers while older generations stay in the game
• What different generations look for in a home—open concept vs. traditional layouts, modern updates vs. classic charm
• The impact of pent-up demand and what it means for future buyers
