A recent survey shows that 64 percent of millennials regret buying their current home. Why? On today’s podcast with BiggerPockets’ David Greene, we dig through millennial homebuyers’ biggest regrets. In addition to dissecting the real estate gripes of Generation Y, we discuss recent industry news, including the story of a company pushing for electronic real estate transactions and a report showing a steep decline in mortgage applications. Plus, David shares how to help clients buy real estate in the face of the fiercest competition we’ve ever seen.
