Your 10-year outlook: Expect business to get busier, but be ready for some major demographic shifts in housing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Housing demand over the next decade will be significantly higher than it is today, predicts Lawrence Yun, the chief economist of the National Association of REALTORS\u00ae, in his latest column at Forbes.com. Rising populations and a growth in the job market likely will release a pent-up demand in housing over the next 10 years, he says.<\/p>\n

The population is rising and more housing will be needed to meet demand, Yun says. About 325 million people currently live in the U.S., and population projections forecast a 27 million increase to 352 million in 10 years.<\/p>\n

However, not all age groups are expected to see an increase. Notably, the number of young adults in their 20s is expected to drop, Yun says.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis demographic are mostly renters, and hence, rental demand will flatline,\u201d Yun says. \u201cReal estate<\/a> investors should be mindful that even though there is good rent growth today, that certainly will not be the case in a few years, especially given the ramp-up in apartment construction over the past few years.\u201d<\/p>\n

The ages you\u2019ll need to watch for some of the most activity in the housing market over the next decade: those in their 30s and 40s. The population of people in their 30s is expected to grow by 5 million over the next decade, reaching 48 million. Yun says that 12 percent increase likely will lead<\/a> to more first-time home buyers. Plus, the number of Americans in their 40s will increase by 3 million, and he predicts they\u2019ll be looking to trade up in real estate<\/a> as their finances improve.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, the number of Americans in their 50s is forecast to drop by nearly 4 million, which could signal a lower demand for second homes, Yun notes.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, \u201cthose in their early 60s, before the commonly recognized retirement age of 65, are a stable bunch with no change in their number of the next decade,\u201d Yun writes. \u201cThe population of those aged 65 and over is rising big time: Expect an increase from the current 51 million to 69 million, a growth of 35 percent.\u201d<\/p>\n

Housing demand in warm weather areas, and income tax\u2013free states like Florida, Tennessee, and Texas are set to boom over the next decade, Yun says.<\/p>\n

Overall, Yun notes, \u201cWithin reasonable parameters of economic growth and interest rate movements, home sales should do well over the next decade, clocking in at around 6 million a year.\u201d The national median home price<\/a> likely will go from $234,000 in 2016 to $330,000 by 2027.<\/p>\n
