Why are people waiting longer than ever to buy homes?
In this episode of Keeping It Real…Estate!, Kevin & Rebecca discuss rising homebuyer ages, historical mortgage interest rates, the disappearance of the starter home, and how social media & HGTV have changed buyer expectations.
They also talk about:
• Why today’s mortgage rates aren’t historically unusual
• Why many younger buyers feel homeownership is unattainable
• The pressure to skip the starter home phase
• Arkansas cost of living and housing affordability
• Why Arkansas is still one of the most affordable places to live in America
This is a real conversation about today’s housing market, affordability, and the realities buyers are facing in 2026.
