The monthly report gives a snapshot of demographics, loan information, and percentage of closed loans for millennial homebuyers through an interactive online tool. It mines data from a sample of approximately 80 percent of all closed mortgages.

According to the data for March, the closing time for loans for millennial homebuyers decreased to its fastest time at 39 days. It found that the average age of millennial homebuyers also increased slightly at 30.1 years from 29.5 years in March 2017.

Married millennials represented 52 percent of all closed loans while 47 percent were for single millennials.
