The Millennial Housing Bubble

Published: Dec. 23, 2019, 5:59 p.m.

Millennials and younger generations are figuring out that the American Dream as laid out by previous generations is a farce. The pillars of older generations and how they spent their money revolved around large homes at inflated prices. While a great investment on paper, its only valuable if there is a market for it. Future generations won\u2019t be there to purchase the $500K+ homes for two reasons. One-they can\u2019t afford it and Two-they don\u2019t want it. The surplus this will create for young boomers and older gen x families will result in homes that will have to be slashed in price from their value today resulting in one of the biggest housing crashes the U.S. will ever see. Combine this with the fact that these high home values are necessary for the sellers because of the expectation that this will fund retirement will result in a domino effect that will be very hard to dig ourselves out of.
