Approximately ** percent of Americans aged 26 to 34 who bought a home were first-home buyers, whereas ** percent of home buyers between 35 and 44 bought their first home in that year. Gen Z and Millennial first-time buyers It is no surprise that many Gen Z (18 to 24 years old) and Millennial (25 to 43 years old) home buyers are mostly first-time home buyers. These home buyers are in the early stages of their careers, or still studying in some cases, and often struggling to repay student debt, so they need to save for many years before they afford a down payment. When do they sell? These generations tend to stay in their first homes for several years, which means that the majority of home sellers are older than them. The share of income needed to afford a trade-up home is significantly lower than the money needed for a starter home. A trade-up home is a larger and more expensive home, which homeowners often buy after living in their starter home, or their first home, for several years. This progression generally happens when homeowners have climbed the career ladder and increased their incomes.

Description: This metric examines how affordable the average First Time Buyer (FTB) priced property would be for a couple earning the average FTB disposable income by NUTS 2 Region, NUTS 3 Region and County, for each year between 2016 and 2021, with this ratio expressed as a percentage (i.e. average monthly mortgage repayment due on the average FTB priced property as a percentage of the average monthly disposable income of an FTB couple). This percentage should be compared relative to the standard affordability mark of 30% (i.e. housing costs should be below 30% of a household’s disposable income). For example, in the attached excel file, the data shows that the Border recorded an Average Mortgage Repayment to Disposable Income Ratio for First Time Buyers of 17.1% in 2021, which was below the standard affordability mark of 30%. This implies that a FTB couple from the Border – on average disposable income levels in the Border and adjusted to reflect incomes of people aged 40 or below in the Border – would only typically have to pay 17.1% of their joint monthly disposable income on their mortgage instalments on the average priced FTB property in the Border. In contrast, the corresponding ratio for Dublin and the Mid-East is 35% and 31.5%, which are both above the standard affordability mark and show that housing for FTBs – on average – is relatively unaffordable in these areas.Basic Calculations = (Average mortgage repayment on average FTB priced property / Average disposable income of a couple under the age of 40).For full detail on the methodology for the development of this ratio please see the RDM FAQ section.This ratio has been developed by the Regional Economist at the three Regional Assemblies and is primarily based on the CSO County Income and Regional GDP as well as the CSO Regional Property Price Index.Geography available in RDM: State, Regional Assembly and Strategic Planning Area (SPA), County (26).Source: Regional AssembliesWeblink: n/aDate of last source data update: April 2023Update Schedule: Annual
