Those of us born between 1979 and 1995 aren't just Gen X or Gen Y any more, we're now also called Echo Boomers, the children of the original Baby Boomers. Though we evidently can't escape the shadow of our parent's and their massive effect on American society, we will overshadow them in Real Estate. These generations will have 5 million more home buyers than the Boomers did when they entered the market. The housing market should recover quickly because of the demand of these buyers, but the prices might not rise quickly. Those entering the job market today are earning less than those that started 10 years ago. Today in Portland Oregon, and across the country, it is a Buyer's Market, and those buyers younger, more demanding, and more technologically advanced than any that the Real Estate industry has seen before, and they know it!
