Did you know . . . 🤔
40% of people renting could qualify for a home. As of 2025, approximately 44 million households in the U.S. are renting. If we take 40% of that figure, it suggests that around 17.6 million renters could qualify for a mortgage and purchase a home! Renters are the largest pool of home buyers as long as numbers have been recorded.
The current housing market landscape presents a unique opportunity for renters to transition into homebuyers. With rising rental prices, many renters are increasingly feeling the financial strain and are recognizing the long-term benefits of homeownership. Interest rates remain relatively favorable, below the historic average, making mortgages more accessible and programs available for the first-time homebuyer.
Are you a renter who would like to own your own home? Remember, you are already making a mortgage payment, it’s just somebody else’s.
Call me and let’s see if we can make you a homeowner!! 😃🏡
