#11 $55 Trillion & Counting: What’s Next for Real Estate and the Next Generation?

In this episode of The FM Realty Report, Roman and Don dig into the national and local real estate forecast — covering inventory shortages, rising rents, and the growing value of U.S. housing, now estimated at $55.1 trillion as of mid-2025. They explore what might happen when baby boomers begin to exit the market and how that massive turnover of property could reshape opportunities for the next generation. The conversation turns to why younger buyers and investors risk missing out if they don’t engage soon, and how building knowledge and community connections today can unlock tomorrow’s real estate opportunities. Roman and Don also share how they hope to inspire and support realtors, investors, and community-minded professionals navigating the future of housing together.
