Welcome to the Rental Boom! [infographic]

By Marco Santarelli


Opportunity in the rental market is really heating up. Rates are rising, vacancies are dropping, and backers are looking at buying properties for long term rental earnings.

Owners have enjoyed the advantage since the house crisis as increased interest from renters coincided with very little new supply of rental units. Rising mortgage rates, tighter borrowing needs and higher home costs have taken many individuals out of the house buying market. Plus, many remain burned by the housing crash and don?t want to own a home.

The latest Rental Screening Solutions industry report published by TransUnion discovered that average rental costs have increased nearly 4% countrywide last year while the credit possibility of applicants for those properties as measured by TransUnion's Resident Scoring Model has continuously improved, with a median improvement of 1% in the year.

Although purchasing a home is 35 p.c less expensive than leasing in the long run, a rising share of US citizens are opting to sign a lease rather than a deed. Pros forecast home possession will fall further in the following couple of years.

Buying isn't the "American Dream" any more. The North American Dream used to be synonymous in the North American psyche with home ownership. Not so any more. Today, the hottest definition of the North American Dream is retiring with economic security, followed by being debt-free, according released in Sep by Credit.com. Just 18 % related that purchasing a home was the American dream.

According to Zillow info, home-ownership rates are predicted to fall below 65% in 2014, the lowest level since the mid-1990s and an advantage to real estate investors who will see increased requirement for their rental properties and continued increase in average leases and home prices.

These rising home prices will encourage USA citizens to move, but to more cost effective areas where housing is cheaper. Metropolitan areas like Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, Indianpolis and Kansas Town will continue to see a expansion in residents and make great investment markets to build your tunkey real estate portfolio.
