Gen Z is fighting an uphill battle to own homes thanks to government-made problems. These young Americans face sky-high prices and crushing mortgage rates. The system seems rigged against hardworking families just starting out.
In early 2025, Gen Z made up 25% of first-time mortgages despite the stacked deck. They’re buying homes faster than experts predicted. This scrappy generation won’t be held back by the broken market.
These young folks are saving early and spending wisely to make their dreams happen. Many live with family to avoid rent and build their nest eggs. They skip fancy vacations and new cars to scrape together down payments.
Yet the housing market stays stacked against them. Home prices keep climbing while mortgage rates stay painfully high. Wages don’t match what homes cost today. It’s like running a race with weights tied to your ankles.
Inflation drove up prices while the Fed jacked up rates to fight it. Now regular families pay the price for politicians’ mistakes. This wasn’t an accident—it was policy failure.
while elites buy their third vacation home. Our leaders bail out banks and corporations but leave young families drowning. This isn’t the land of opportunity we were promised.
Real solutions start with cutting government waste to tame inflation. We need smart tax cuts to help savers and builders. Get bureaucrats out of the way so we can build more affordable homes.
Gen Z shows incredible grit fighting for their piece of the dream. With the right policies, we can clear the traps set before them. The future belongs to those willing to work for it, not wait for handouts.
