For most of the last decade finding ways to appeal to potential homebuyers meant catering to the needs and desires of Millennial buyers. But now the focus is largely on Generation Z buyers who are starting to buy their first homes so they can settle down and start their families. Generation Z is focused on homeownership and many of them have started saving money for a home while they were still in college.
