The total supply of homes for sale at this early juncture of 2017 coupled with the
relative low affordability of those homes have made the market interesting to watch.
The combination of broad personal financial situations is particularly pronounced
among millennials celebrating their prime home-buying years. While some
individuals may have a decent amount of money saved up for a home purchase,
others have educational debt, lowering their maximum affordability price. Being
aware of this situational variety will help both lenders and agents.
