Across real estate markets, there has been a shift towards professionally managed, purpose-built assets in central locations available to anyone, whether it is office space or student accommodations. One of the fastest growing purpose-built real estate market segments for the past decade has been Build To Rent (BTR) – and this trend shows no sign of slowing. Already accounting for 30% of real estate investment in the U.S., 2024 is expected to be the biggest year for BTR and the segment is now beginning to demonstrate more diversification as new, clear trends emerge. BTR has the unique advantage of being able to help accelerate the delivery of housing in areas where the need is greatest, while at the same time allowing for existing space in urban centers to be reimagined and provide new opportunities for investors keen to enter the sector.
Join Nextgen Energy Homes’ Gunter Freystaetter to learn —
- How mortgage rates and overall demand trends – such as older residents downsizing, migration to Florida and Texas, growth in single person households, housing prices growing faster than rents, student debt hangover among young professionals — will drive rental demand and pricing.
- Why sustainability — driven by target demographic environmental consciousness – is important, and how these considerations will be reflected in design, choice of construction and finish materials, energy use, amenities and much more.
- How construction material selection and sourcing, construction methods and smart supply chain management can accelerate the time it takes to bring new BTR inventory to market.
This is an opportunity to get an inside look at a real estate sector with solid supply/demand dynamics, stable long term income streams and exposure to major structural and demographic trends.
