[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The folks we know who bought at the height of the market in 2006 and ended up having to sell were genx (mostly younger ones).[/quote] Lots of millennials in their early 20s got approved for stated income loans[/quote] We're eldest millennials (Jan 1981) and were the first of our peers to buy in 2010 (which turned out to be fabulous timing). There were probably a few millennials who bough sooner, but I think the housing price timing was the worst for younger GenX. They were the ones stretching for family homes in the 2004-2008 years. [/quote] I'm an 83 millennial. Bought in 2006 as did many of my peers. We were basically right out of college and the low down payment mortgages got us all in. Ended up making decent money on the property when we sold in 2010.[/quote]So you bought in a lower cost area or used your parent's money. [/quote]
