Silver Tsunami Could Release 13.9 Million Homes to Market

Original: ‘Silver Tsunami’ Will Release 13.9 Million Homes Into the Market. What Will It Do for Homebuyers?

Housing analysts project that an aging wave of homeowners, dubbed the 'silver tsunami', will eventually put roughly 13.9 million homes on the market as older Americans downsize or pass away. The question is whether that supply will meaningfully ease affordability for buyers, or whether the homes will arrive slowly, in less desirable locations, and in conditions requiring renovation.

Why now: Housing affordability remains a top concern, and projections of a large future supply release from older homeowners are drawing attention from buyers and analysts.
