How Baby Boomers Are Redefining Retirement, Real Estate, and Vibrant Lifestyles
Previous generations described their post-retirement lives as the “golden years,” symbolizing a slower lifestyle appropriate for the elderly. But this description no longer applies to the current generation of seniors, baby boomers. By 2030, the 73 million baby boomers in the U.S. will be at retirement age, with substantial wealth. Despite the impending “silver tsunami,” baby boomers are defying traditional retirement norms. They’re living longer, remaining more active, and often delaying retirement while adapting their luxurious lifestyles to stay engaged in the workforce. As a result, baby boomers are poised to influence the luxury residential real estate market significantly for the foreseeable future. In fact, many are modifying their living arrangements to suit their evolving needs and preferences, as well as those of their families. In this Engel & Völkers Trend Report, we identify five key personas within the baby boomer generation that are significantly influencing luxury home ownership. These five foundational personas are redefining retirement, vibrant lifestyles, and the trajectory of the luxury real estate market in North America. To learn more, read our Engel & Völkers Trend Report.

Yes, Virginia, There Are Unexpected Advantages of Selling a Home in the Winter
Selling a home during the winter might seem counterintuitive, but there are several advantages that could make it a smart decision. Here are several key benefits of selling a home in winter: Less Competition Fewer listings: Winter is a traditionally slower time in the real estate market, a time when fewer homes are listed. With fewer choices available to buyers, your home may stand out more and face less competition. More attention from buyers: Serious buyers who are looking in winter are likely to focus on your home, since there are fewer listings to distract them. Serious Buyers Motivated buyers: People shopping for homes in winter are often more motivated. They might be relocating for a job, looking to close before the new year, or under time constraints, making them more likely to make a quick decision and offer. Less window shopping: Winter buyers tend to be more serious and not just browsing. This means the chances of lowball offers or indecisive buyers might be lower. Potential for Higher Offers Limited inventory: With fewer homes on the market, buyers may be more willing to make competitive offers, especially if they find a home that meets their needs. Better negotiation position: Less inventory can give sellers more leverage in negotiations, as buyers have fewer options to fall back on. Tax Benefits for Buyers End-of-year tax incentives: Buyers looking to close by the end of the year may be motivated by tax benefits (e.g., mortgage interest deductions), which can push them to act quickly and be more willing to meet your terms. Faster Transaction Process Quicker closing times: With fewer transactions happening in winter, mortgage lenders, appraisers, and real estate agents are often less busy, which can lead to a faster and smoother closing process. Fewer delays: The less crowded market means less competition for inspectors, appraisers, and contractors, which can streamline the sale process. Year-End Relocation Corporate transfers: Many companies finalize relocations and transfers at the end of the year, meaning there are buyers who need to find a home quickly and may be more flexible with offers. Holiday moves: Some families prefer to move during school vacations to avoid disruptions in their children’s schedules, creating a sense of urgency to close before the new year. Flexible Moving Timeline Flexible move-out dates: If you're planning on buying another home, there may also be less competition in the market for your next home purchase, allowing you to negotiate better terms on both ends. Standing Out in a Niche Market Targeted buyers: While the overall number of buyers may be lower in winter, those looking are often determined, allowing you to attract the right buyers for your property. Easier Scheduling for Showings Fewer disruptions: With fewer showings to juggle, you can arrange open houses and viewings more easily without as many conflicts with your schedule. Focused real estate professionals: Agents tend to have lighter workloads in the winter, allowing them to focus more on selling your home, which could lead to a better and faster outcome. Year-End Bonuses Financially prepared buyers: Some buyers receive year-end bonuses or other financial windfalls, giving them more buying power in winter, potentially leading to higher offers. While winter might not be the traditional time for selling a home, it offers a number of unique advantages, from less competition and motivated buyers to faster transaction times. With the right strategy, you can leverage these factors to sell your home—and possibly for a better price than you might during busier seasons.

Expert Tips for Planning a Holiday Party at Home
Homes often serve as the ideal backdrop and venue for special occasions, because a home already has the host’s style, flair, and sentiment built into it. As the founder and chief creative officer of Rafanelli Events, Bryan Rafanelli knows a thing or two about party planning — for show stopping gatherings ranging in size from 15 to 15,000 attendees to creating unforgettable guest experiences across the globe. Similar to Engel & Völkers, Rafanelli Events shares a commitment to delivering highly personalized, tailored, and bespoke experiences for their clients. With Rafanelli’s expertise in creating unforgettable events, and Engel & Völkers’ dedication to curating exceptional real estate experiences, it made sense for the brands to partner this holiday season to bring you tips for hosting the ideal at-home gathering all year long. This collaboration brings together a shared passion for elevated client service, a design-focused eye, and the utmost attention to detail. Just in time for the holidays and your 2025 hosting plans ahead. Rafanelli's Thanksgiving Spread Inspiration Weather Contingencies Have a backup plan for outdoor events, such as tents, portable heaters, or fans, to adapt to unexpected weather. Monitor weather forecasts leading up to your party to make adjustments as needed. Vendor Coordination Allocate space and resources for catering, entertainment, and other vendors, including setup areas for catering and staging areas for entertainment, if you’re having a performer or performers. Designate a setup area for catering, bar service, and any other vendor needing workspace. Plan Multiple ‘Wow’ Moments As a baseline, we like to have three to five ‘wow’ moments, special moments, at our events, no matter their size. Create special moments throughout your event, with something happening approximately every 20 minutes to keep guests engaged. Focus on First Impressions Make the initial impact count, but ensure it connects meaningfully to you as the host or the event's purpose — don't just do something flashy without meaning. Consider Sound and Music Carefully Comfort is another piece of the puzzle that people will walk away and remember and say, “I went to this event and it wasn't loud.” Keep music at a level at which guests can still have conversations while feeling the beat. Pay Attention to Scale and Variety When decorating, use items in different sizes to create visual interest and dimension. As demonstrated in Rafanelli Events’ Thanksgiving table example, using pumpkins of varying sizes creates dynamic visual interest. Don't Be Afraid to Transform Simple Items In Rafanelli’s book, “A Great Party: Designing the Perfect Celebration,” he talks about the idea of making something from nothing. Take basic items and make them special through creative transformation. Create Intimate Spaces Even in larger spaces, find ways to make the environment feel intimate and comfortable for guests through thoughtful design and layout. Tell a Story Make sure your event elements connect to tell a cohesive story or reflect something meaningful about the occasion or you as host. Plan the Flow Think about continually keeping somebody's mind moving through a 120-minute experience. Carefully think through every moment of your event from start to finish. Engage Multiple Senses Create an experience that engages all the senses, not just visual impact. Consider how elements like sound, lighting, comfort, and even temperature work together to create a complete sensory experience.
