Starter homes are vanishing across America

Original: The starter home is disappearing across America. These cities still have them https://www.fastcompany.com/91620856/the-s

A new report says the traditional starter home — an affordable entry-level house for first-time buyers — is increasingly disappearing from the American market, priced out by construction costs, zoning limits and investor demand. The analysis highlights a handful of cities where starter homes can still be found, drawing attention to widening affordability gaps for younger and first-time buyers.

Why now: Housing affordability remains a top concern for Americans, so data showing which cities still offer entry-level homes is drawing wide interest.
