First-time home buyers with remote work flexibility are focusing on markets where the inventory of homes for sale is nearly two times more than the national average.

As more than 45 million millennials enter the prime first-time buying ages of 26-35, the year 2022 will present several opportunities, despite expected a rise in rates and a recovering inventory.

Despite mounting affordability challenges, existing-home sales continued to push upward, rising a slight 0.8% over September’s totals.

Despite lingering supply issues, housing permits increased to an annual pace of 1.65 million in October, a positive sign for home builders to close out the year.

More Americans are seeking homes in a market where short supply continues to be tagged with high ticket prices as potential buyers migrate from urban apartments to suburban homes.

Buyers may be returning to the market, but millennials and other first-time buyers continue to grapple with still-record-high prices.

While the market continues to favor sellers, 432,000 newly listed homes hit the market in August, with once-hotly-contested bidding wars cooling to close out Q3.

ZIP codes that made this year's "hottest" list offered more square footage for the money, a robust job market, and nearby outdoor activities.

An increase in the number of smaller, affordable homes listed in July provided much-needed relief for first-time homebuyers who have been shut out of the market due to affordability and inventory concerns.

Sales of new single‐family houses slid 6.6% month-over-month in June, with supply concerns still impacting the market.
