In the post-pandemic era, there is a new type of investment in the United States that deserves the attention of domestic investors. This asset class is called Build to Rent. Abbreviated as B2R. Also known as a long-term rental villa.

To explain clearly what is a long-term rental villa, we must first know that the main force of the housing rental market in the United States is millennials aged 24-39. They also gradually entered the stage of marriage and children.

Before marriage, single young couples generally choose to rent commercial apartments, which are usually in a building, which is a common property and managed by a company.

The advantage is that the rent is low, and there are special personnel to take care of the maintenance, which is in line with the free and comfortable living conditions of young people. But the disadvantage is that the space is small, not suitable for families, and most of the apartments are only available in the city center, so the living environment is worse than the suburbs, and the activity space is limited. This was particularly evident during the outbreak.

Therefore, the isolation and closure caused by the epidemic has given more millennials the desire to flee the city and pursue a larger and freer space.

But you know millennials are also in a worse financial position. Many are saddled with huge student loans and limited funds to buy a home. Moreover, villa residences generally need to be maintained by the owner of the house, and the younger generation will think that it is a big trouble.

In this social context, the demand for long-term rental villas in the United States has expanded rapidly during the epidemic.

Long-term rental villas combine the advantages of unified management of apartments with the freedom of space of single-family villas. Perfectly addresses the living needs of millennials and optimizes their living experience. A very large number of large companies began to build this community of villas dedicated to renting.

For investors, the return on investment in such assets is more stable.

From the data point of view, the renewal rate of the general two-year lease is as high as 80%, which is much higher than that of the apartment.

And the newly developed villa community, the house is in good condition and the maintenance cost is low. Many developers provide corresponding property management services, which saves the energy of leasing, maintenance and management for domestic investors.

This is undoubtedly another big positive news for Austin!

Austin's population flows to the first place in the United States, dominated by high-income people in Kochi. The chart below shows the movement of people in major U.S. cities over the decade 2010-2019. Like the traditional first-tier cities, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, St. Jones, etc., the domestic population is moving out in large numbers. The main place of relocation is the southern region led by Austin. Including Texas, Florida, and more. Regions that have more advantages in terms of taxation, quality of life and employment.

And the median household income for Austin residents in 2019 was $80,954, higher than the statewide median of $16,920.

The total increase in the decade between 2010 and 2020 was as high as 30.9%, with an average annual growth rate of 3.9%. According to the population growth projections of professional institutions, by 2050, the total population of Austin Region will increase from 1.71 million to 4.54 million, an increase of nearly 1.65 times.

As can be seen from the chart below, the economic belt of the Austin area extends towards the north and southeast. Tesla's GIGA Factory is located in the yellow irregular area of the figure on the right.

Giant businesses in the southeast stretch south from downtown, including Amazon, Samsung, Oracle, Dell and Tesla, among others.

As more and more technology companies enter Austin, the Southeast Economic Belt continues to expand, and there are many newly started industrial sites within a thirty-minute drive of the WB Future City project. When enterprises officially move in, the number and price of surrounding residences will definitely rise.

The market inventory is only 0.8 months, while the average market inventory in the United States is more than 1.5 months, indicating that the current market supply and demand relationship is extremely unbalanced. The demand gap is large.

The shortage of housing has also been transmitted to the rental market, where rents for three-bedroom units have risen by 16% year-on-year.
