This weekend the Savannah Bananas are in town. Jesse and Emily Cole, the founders of the Savannah Bananas, believe in making everything fun, putting fans first, and doing things differently—even if it seems a little crazy. They say that the best ideas come when you're not afraid to stand out and make people smile. In breaking the mold of traditional sports entertainment their mantra is; stand out, be different, have fun, and swing hard, and here are the 3 things you need to know this week.
Family Dinner: Over 59 million Americans now live in multigenerational households.
Is multigenerational living back? Warren Buffett thinks so. Berkshire Hathaway predicts a major shift in the housing market and it seems to be already happening. Families are
teaming up to split housing costs, share caregiving duties, and build generational wealth. This could reshape housing for years. Builders have been focused on the nuclear family but the demand is shifting; multigenerational homes will offer flexible layouts, separate entrances, and accessible design. Only question left; would you live…with your family?
If I Had A Million Dollars: 23% of Millennial’s stated they intend to purchase a home in 2025.
Based on a new survey from
realtor.com nearly 1 in 4 millennial respondents indicated that they plan to buy a home in the next six months, up from just 15% in September 2024. What about the other generations? More than half of Gen Z respondents (55%) said they would delay a home purchase compared to just 35% of Gen X and 18% of baby boomers.
Cupboards Are Full: US home listings worth nearly $700 billion — a new record
According to a recent report from Redfin, the total value of homes listed for sale in the U.S. surged to $698 billion in April with close to half — $330 billion — tied up in stale listings. This represents a 20.3% increase YOY from the same time last year. Even as supply has surged, nationally median home prices still experienced a modest rise, an increase of 1.4% year-over-year in April. However; according to Chen Zhao, Redfin's head of economics research “we shouldn’t expect homed, We expect rising inventory, weakened demand, and the prevalence of stale supply to push home prices down 1% by the end of this year.”
Going back to the Savannah Bananas; I wonder how many other careers, professions, industries could be enhanced by adopting their authentic, creative, and fan-obsessed approach? Have a great weekend and remember; We’re never as great as our best day - We’re never as bad as our worst day; Be Confident - Stay Humble.
