You would be surprised at how much family help those families often have. I’m not talking generational wealth. Often just upper middle class parents who saved prudently and did well in the real estate market who can afford to gift $500,000 for a house.

Good point, and I'm not personally so far removed from this same category.

But it's extremely disappointing and frustrating to feel like I personally will not be able to do this for my own children, despite having a higher income than most people my age.
