(Click on “Conferences” on the right; for any additions or corrections, contact Ed.) Here at the MBA’s IMB conference, it’s not much fun talking about revenue and margins. So, let’s talk Vitamin C! San Diego County, and California, ranks first with 59 percent of the U.S. citrus production. And when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. What about when life gives you plenty of barren areas of snow? Thank you to Len T. for this one, reminding us that some people have inordinate amounts of time on their hands. And thank you to Michael Chan yesterday who sent the real estate version of Wordle if you will, where you guess the price of the house. (Watch for those oceanside house prices!) Yes, there are plenty of people out there looking at housing, and the amount for sale.

Will a Silver Tsunami Change the 2024 Housing Market? Have you ever heard the term “Silver Tsunami” and wondered what it's all about? If so, that might be because there’s been lot of talk about it online recently. Let's dive into what it is and why it won't drastically impact the housing market. What Does Silver Tsunami Mean? A recent article from HousingWire calls it: “. . . a colloquialism referring to aging Americans changing their housing arrangements to accommodate aging . . .” The thought is that as baby boomers grow older, a significant number will start downsizing their homes. Considering how large that generation is, if these moves happened in a big wave, it would affect the housing market by causing a significant uptick in the number of larger homes for sale. That influx of homes coming onto the market would impact the balance of supply and demand and more. The concept makes sense in theory, but will it happen? And if so, when? Why It Won’t Have a Huge Impact on the Housing Market in 2024 Experts say, so far, a silver tsunami hasn’t happened – and it probably won't anytime soon. According to that same article from HousingWire: “. . . the silver tsunami’s transformative potential for the U.S. housing market has not yet materialized in any meaningful way, and few expect it to anytime soon.” Clearly, not every baby boomer is planning to sell or move – and even those who do won’t do it all at once. Instead, it will be more gradual, happening slowly over time. If you’re worried about a Silver Tsunami shaking up the housing market, don’t be. Any impact from baby boomers moving will be gradual over many years. Fleming sums it up best: “Demographic trends, they don't tsunami. They trickle.” #realestate #homeownership #homebuying www.DanFreshley.com
