· Creative Concessions: 84% are making sacrifices, including co-buying with family (63% of Gen Z) or moving to more affordable areas.

· Enduring Desire: Despite the hurdles, homeownership remains central to the American Dream (56% say so), and 83% of non-owners want to buy someday.

Homeownership is still the goal, but the starting line is moving. See how buyers are getting creative & what it means for the market:
