Silver Tsunami Could Ease Housing Inventory, Create New Demand
Original: The ‘Silver Tsunami’ Could Solve the Inventory Problem—and Create a Demand Problem
Housing commentators are discussing the so-called 'Silver Tsunami'—the wave of older Americans expected to sell their homes as they retire or downsize. Realtor.com reports this wave could help ease the chronic shortage of homes for sale, but the seniors freeing up inventory will also need somewhere to live, potentially creating a fresh wave of demand for senior housing and downsized units.
Why now: Housing affordability and low inventory remain hot topics, and a major demographic shift affecting supply is highly relevant to buyers and sellers.
