> Once the boomer generation dies off or goes into assisted living you'll see a lot of those 1970s houses coming back on the market

But will they be affordable? Or will they be bought up by real estate conglomerates to be rented to the younger generations?

More supply should make them more affordable. Buying a house was never "easy." Some people seem to think that minimum wage workers were buying houses back in the 1970s and that wasn't the case. At all.
