The first-time buyer isn’t struggling because of the market. They ARE the market. And right now… they’re gone. 🚨
Here’s what nobody is talking about.
First-time buyers make up just 21% of all purchases right now. The historical average is closer to 40%. That gap is not a rate problem. It is a structural collapse that is stalling the entire housing chain from the bottom up. 📉
When the entry-level buyer disappears, move-up sellers have nowhere to go. Transactions vanish three and four at a time. That is why the market feels frozen even when prices haven’t crashed.
The agents winning right now are not waiting for 2021 to come back. They are solving financial puzzles for buyers, protecting their listings with a plan B, and treating every lead like it matters. 💪🏼
