Military Monday: What are Homeowner Stats among Servicemembers and Veterans?

We found some really interesting highlights in this 2018 study, including:

• Unique to active-service military buyers: most likely to buy a multi-generational home and most likely to have children under the age of 18 in the home, have the youngest median age
• Unique to veteran buyers: Largest group purchasing home as a married couple, have the oldest median age
• Unique to non-military buyers: biggest reason to move in future is for better neighborhood, bought the smallest size home
