Single Gen Z women are outpacing the men of their generation when it comes to buying a home. They accounted for 35% of all homebuyers in their generation, while single Gen Z men represented 18%, according to survey data from the National Association of Realtors. The survey covered homebuyers from July 2024 to June 2025. Single women across all generations made up a quarter of homebuyers, while single men accounted for 11%. The trend is the latest sign that single women are choosing to become homeowners — and overcoming affordability challenges many aspiring homeowners face — at greater rates than single men. Even so, older generations and married couples represent the largest share overall of homebuyers.
