Fewer first-time homebuyers.

Is it a sign of the times?  Real estate fares much better today than last year, but a new trend emerges:
first-time buyers are fewer...


A survey by the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® found that only 31 percent of their sales were to first-time buyers. Normally, first-time buyers represent closer to 40 percent of the market.
More details about this (sad) trend on this article of the New York Times.

Thanks for reading!
