Would you buy a new home with your bestie?

Nearly half of Americans say yes, according to a recent study by JW Surety Bonds. Six out of 10 say they would co-buy a house, with Gen Z being the most willing at 70%. For them, it’s all about affordability.

Older generations are more interested in investment opportunities, like vacation homes.

Single people are more likely than married couples to view sharing the financial burden as a plus to co-buying a home. People that co-bought a home invested an average of $84,484.

While nearly half purchased with the intent of residing in the home, others purchased as an investment property.
