New Home Buyer Trends in 2025
Filed under: Real Estate Market
What are some of the new home buyer trends happening in today’s real estate environment? Staying up-to-date on the current trends is essential, especially if you are planning to buy or sell a home in the near future.
One thing that you might have noticed is that both prices and rates have gone up, so does that mean payments have gone up a lot as a result of these changes? Well, some people are getting creative with their financing strategies to manage payments and optimize their investments.
Here are a few things that you might consider if you are trying to buy a home this year:
Creative Financing Options
One approach is to partner with friends or other investors who have co-ownership in the real estate that you are buying. This is a great way that you can get involved, even if you don’t have the cash upfront to buy the property on your own. This strategy can give you more purchasing power since you are teaming up with someone else.
Multi-Generational Living
Speaking of teaming up, multi-generational living is becoming really popular. Family members are choosing to share homes, often with separate spaces available to give everyone the privacy that they desire. This is one option to split the cost of living and make it more affordable for everyone.
Side Hustles and Cash Generation
People are also finding other ways to generate income, like side hustles or additional work. Even a few hundred dollars a month of extra income can be enough to cover the gap and show a lender that you can afford the mortgage. Plus, this extra cash helps to improve the debt-to-income ratio, which makes it easier to qualify for a loan.
