Walking Down the Aisle Takes a Back Seat to Homeownership for Millennials
For years, most people followed a similar path. Go to school. Get married. Buy a house. In 2023, that path no longer works for many millennials—and purchasing a home has moved right up the priority list.
According to a recent survey from LendingTree, young adults are getting married later in life than previous generations. However, they’re not delaying homeownership! Now, 24% of millennials put purchasing a home ahead of getting married; another 27% are putting off starting a family until after homeownership. In fact, 43% of all first-time homebuyers in the US now are single!
If you’re a millennial and homeownership is your top priority, you are not alone. There are plenty of other millennials who are buying homes before getting married or starting a family. So if that’s your plan, don’t wait! Now is a great time to make a move and turn your dream of homeownership into a reality.
