Only 4% of millennials plan to buy a house soon

Washington Post  While 89 percent of millennial renters say they plan to buy a home someday, just 4 percent expect to buy in 2019 and 30 percent say they will wait at least five years, according to a new survey by Apartment List, a rental property database.

For most of the millennials in the survey, affordability is the biggest obstacle for their purchase, cited by 72 percent. While cash needs are the paramount obstacle, 38 percent of millennials say they have bad credit and 29 percent say the monthly payments for a home are an obstacle.
