Today’s podcast is very near and dear to my heart, a topic I have tried to debunk for a long time: the Silver Tsunami. This doomsday marketing gimmick was created in 2008 when the first baby boomer turned 62. By 2015, Baby Boomers would rush to the market, sending 26-32 million homes to market. This would also last until 2025 as the boomers age into the record-breaking inventory ten-year period.
This is the latest chart from the NAR on total active listings per the last existing home sales report, where inventory is a tad over 1,000,000.
Also, since Mid July 2022, new lisitngs data has been trending at the lowest levels ever recorded in history. In fact, the last 3 years have been trending at the lowest levels ever recorded in history.
