Baby Boomers Bypass Real Estate Market with Family Property Transfers

Baby Boomers Bypass Real Estate Market with Family Property Transfers

A growing number of Baby Boomers are transferring property directly to family members, bypassing the traditional real estate market, and it’s reshaping housing trends across the country. This shift has become particularly prominent in Florida, where many older homeowners are opting to gift or sell their homes to relatives instead of listing them on the open market.

This trend reflects a desire among Boomers to keep family homes within the family, ensuring that properties remain in the hands of loved ones. Additionally, many Boomers are motivated by financial considerations, such as avoiding capital gains taxes and minimizing the complexities associated with traditional sales.

As a result, family-to-family home transfers are surging, leading to a decrease in available housing stock for first-time buyers and other prospective homeowners. This phenomenon is altering the dynamics of the housing market, prompting experts to closely monitor its long-term implications for real estate trends and affordability.
