Changes in America's Demographic Raising Demand for Rental Accommodation

Business Wire,  May 7, 2008  

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c90843) has announced the addition of Lessors of Residential Buildings and Dwellings in the US to their offering.

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in acting as lessors of buildings used as residences or dwellings, such as single-family homes, apartment buildings, and town homes. Included in this industry are owner-lessors and establishments renting real estate and then acting as lessors in subletting it to others. The establishments in this industry may manage the property themselves or have another establishment manage it for them. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.

Dwellings Shrink as Demand Grows

Changes in America's demographic are affecting the number of people renting and the type of rental accommodation demanded. Such trends include marrying later in life, family size shrinking and high divorce rates. These act to increase the demand for housing generally and for rental apartments in particular. This has resulted in low vacancy rates for units, despite overall rental vacancies being high by long-term historical standards.
