The National Association of Realtors (NAR) reports that the median age of first-time homebuyers has increased significantly, reaching 40 years old, compared to 29 years old in 1981. Not only that, but first-time home buyer share has fallen to a historic low of 21 percent. If you’re a lender, do you have the products in your arsenal to take advantage of these demographic shifts? In addition, do you have the technology that your clients prefer? In today’s Now Next Later, at 10AM PT, Jodi Hall and Jeremy Potter will focus on technology and innovation.
