I head to Vancouver, WA, this morning for a Banner Bank event and will probably have the option of Wi-Fi on the plane. How is it that NASA is able to receive data from 4.6 billion miles away, but I lose my Wi-Fi signal in my kitchen? Having a computer or smart phone has a price. I use Duck Duck Go for a search engine… Don’t think that Google doesn’t alter your search queries to reach your wallet. In other tech news, and you will forget about this note by then, your phone will blare a national emergency alert test today at 2:20PM ET, 12:20 PM MT. Of course, the messages will be accompanied by a “unique tone and vibration.” Listen for a jarring and obnoxious alarm that will immediately make you stop what you’re doing, utter obscenities, and pick up your phone to make it stop. Who can concentrate on Taylor Swift munching on football stadium dogs, or the lack of inventory and high rates, when the Las Vegas oddsmakers are making an active market in Fat Bear Week? (My 401(k) money’s on Otis!) Or maybe you’re watching the courtroom drama in NY or the machinations in Washington DC as groups come together and separate.

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
