EP#94 Chris Porter | Renter Demographics Update
<p>Outside of the economy, no factor shapes rental housing demand more than demographics. What are the latest trends shaping demand for apartments and single-family rentals, and what's shifts are under way? Back by popular demand, the O.G. of housing demographics, Chris Porter of John Burns Research & Consulting, joins the podcast to talk data and trends on all the key demographic drivers. How is immigration policy impacting rental housing demand? The answer is more nuanced than most pundits will acknowledge. And what does Burns data show on rental household formation? Does it align with other industry data showing strong absorption numbers despite numerous demand-side headwinds? What about the spike in young adults living with parents? Prior to the conversation with Chris, rental housing economist Jay Parsons shares five of his favorite housing demographics charts from JBREC's latest 100+ page housing demographics report. Additionally, Jay brings back recurring segments like Rental Housing Economist, Good Question, In the News, and Good News.</p>
