Is the future generation of homeowners set up to fail? Ahead of the upcoming U.S. presidential election, a new study of 1,000 adults from the seven swing states found 61% of parents polled are worried about whether their children will be able to buy a home as they get older.
Over the past five years, 80% of adults in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin have seen housing prices increase in their state, averaging a 33% increase. Arizona has seen the steepest housing cost increase at 38%, while Wisconsin saw the least (27%).
The research, commissioned by Built, a real estate and construction finance and management platform, and conducted by Talker Research, revealed 58% believe it is harder to find a home today than it was five years ago. It was found to be especially difficult for those polled who are living in Arizona (63%) and Nevada (63%).
And many believe it’s been caused by overall inflation (59%), rent increases (40%), interest rate increases (31%), not enough residential housing being available (28%), and increased property tax rates (28%).
