In this Chart of the Week, Denverite examined how median home prices in each neighborhood have changed from 2016 to 2017 so far.

Why are Most Millennials becoming Homeowners?

 

When millennials buy houses, it’s for an unexpected reason.

According to a new study by Harris Poll, commissioned by SunTrust Mortgage, one of the top reasons millennials—here defined as those between the ages of 18 and 36—choose to settle down is due to their dogs. That’s right: Thirty three percent of participants cited the need for more space for their furry friends as the leading factor behind purchasing a house. That number may fall behind their own need for more space (66 percent), and the desire to build equity (36 percent), but it’s surprisingly ahead of both marriage (25 percent), and the birth of a child (19 percent).

You know, priorities.

To arrive at this conclusion, SunTrust polled…

Higher mortgage rates this year haven't capped home price appreciation, which is adding to the pressure on buyers.

If first-time buyers were counting on home price gains to slow or flatten out as the trade-off for rising mortgage rates, they need to recalculate, some of the nation’s leading housing economists said in Denver on Friday according to The Denver Post.

“We are looking for a further crunch in affordability,” Lawrence Yun, chief economist with the National Association of Realtors, said at the National Association of Real Estate Editors’ annual conference in Denver.

Yun said builders aren’t producing enough homes to keep pace with demand in many markets, pushing up prices on existing…
