Boomers Moving Will Be More Like a Gentle Tide Than a Tsunami

Have you heard the term “Silver Tsunami” getting tossed around recently? If so, here’s what you really need to know. That phrase refers to the idea that a lot of baby boomers are going to move or downsize all at once. And the fear is that a sudden influx of homes for sale would have a big impact on housing. That’s because it would create a whole lot more competition for smaller homes and would throw off the balance of supply and demand, which ultimately would impact home prices.

But here’s the thing. There are a couple of faults in that logic. Let’s break them down and put your mind at ease.

Not All Baby Boomers Plan To Move

For starters, plenty of baby boomers don’t plan on moving at all. A study from the AARP says more than half of adults aged 65 and older want to stay in their homes and not move as they age (see graph below):

While it’s true circumstances may change and some people who don’t plan to move (the red in the chart above) may realize they need to down the road, the vast majority are counting on aging in place.

As for those who stay put, they’ll likely modify their homes as their needs change over time. And when updating their existing home won’t work, some will buy a second home and keep their original one as an investment to fuel generational wealth for their loved ones. As an article from Inman explains:

“Many boomers have no desire to retire fully and take up less space . . . Many will modify their current home, and the wealthiest will opt to have multiple homes.”

Even Those Who Do Move Won’t Do It All at Once

While not all baby boomers are looking to sell their homes and move – the ones who do won’t all do it at the same time. Instead, it’ll happen slowly over many years. As Freddie Mac says:

“We forecast the ‘tsunami’ will be more like a tide, bringing a gradual exit of 9.2 million Boomers by 2035 . . .”

As Mark Fleming, Chief Economist at First American, says:

“Demographics are never a tsunami. The baby boomer generation is almost two decades of births. That means they’re going to take about two decades to work their way through.”

Bottom Line

If you’re stressed about a Silver Tsunami shaking the housing market overnight, don’t be. Baby boomers will move slowly over a much longer period of time.

Southwest Florida Golf Community Real Estate Trends

Your go-to resource for golf community real estate trends for Naples, Bonita Springs, Estero, Fort Myers, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, and Sarasota.

Similar to the last several months, inventory increased slightly in most luxury golf communities throughout Southwest Florida. Additionally, the average sales price rose in most communities.

Almost all of the “equity” golf communities have multi-year waitlists. However, there are options for immediate golf privileges in those communities. It is important to have an experienced golf community expert help you navigate your options to ensure you find the lifestyle, community, and golf course of your dreams.

With more than 200 golf communities between Naples and Sarasota, it is a challenge to navigate all the various options for golf membership. That’s where we come in. Our vast relationships with all the golf communities in Southwest Florida allow us to serve our clients by making the home-buying or selling process an easy and enjoyable one.

February Real Estate Activity for Naples Florida

The latest February real estate activity reports showed 636 properties sold for just over $766 Million during the month. The highest-priced sale was a Port Royal estate for $26,400,000.

Additionally, 176 of the real estate transactions for the month were at or above $1 Million.

Ultimately, we have seen a shift in prices in many communities in the Naples area. Sellers who started out with “aspirational pricing” are now making price adjustments to align with market demand. It is important to note, price adjustments are community and even neighborhood specific. While some neighborhoods have an over supply of homes for sale, others have low inventory.

If you are considering buying or selling your home, we will help provide you with an accurate market comparison and provide expert advice on how to capitalize on today’s market conditions.
