Construction/Renovations of Apartments & MultiFamily Housing

It may be difficult for property investors to know what the future holds, but new multifamily housing is significantly impacting the rental market.

From the top renters Millennials, to Gen Zer’s hitting the market, to older Americans downsizing, the multifamily housing market is expected to continue to have a high return on investment.

“Rents are rising at the fastest pace in almost two years,” according to CNBC.

• The median rent in the United State rose 2.8 percent over the past year to $1,445, the fastest pace of appreciation since May 2016, according to Zillow.

• Potential buyers are having an increasingly difficult time finding a home they can afford, so they are renting longer.

• Rising mortgage rates only exacerbate the problem, as they decrease affordability as well.

“The country’s apartment market remains tight, with product availability generally limited to recently completed properties moving through initial leasing,” said Greg Willett, chief economist at RealPage. “Unless a renter can afford that expensive new stock, finding a ready-to-lease unit takes some real work in most locations.”

Out of the 45.9 million renters, Millennials form 18.4 million, 12.9 million comprises Generation X, and 10.4 make up Baby Boomers.

Making apartment living attractive to Millennial and Generation X means a building that is environmentally conscious, tech savvy, online and text portals for maintenance requests and paying their rent, high speed Wi-Fi, and don’t forget the furry babies, Millennials love their pets.

The up and coming Get Z’ers, are soon to be the largest demographic in the Southeastern United States. Property investors should keep them in mind when making renovations and new construction.
