Millennials have poured over $500 billion into the housing market over the past year...but what caused this boom? Ed Groshans, Senior Financial Services Analyst at Height Securities joins Your Future Home to discuss where the trend is going and what benefits it's creating along the way.
Groshans says the new tax plan and decreasing unemployment numbers are putting more money into the pockets of young adults. Plus, because millennials are getting married and having kids later in life they are more financially savvy and have saved for a mortgage, home repairs, etc.
