On-Demand Business, Equity Capital, And Other Housing Marketplace Trends

A recent report found that 91 percent of investors are bullish on access to equity capital. Investment volume will continue to rise, and coastal markets will flourish.

PCBC, the annual homebuilding trade show held in the Western U.S., released its 2017 Trends Report, with insight on topics such as capital markets, land planning and development, business management, and design.

The report, which was written in conjunction with Meyers Research, said that the multifamily sector faces a healthy and balanced market with demand from both Millennials and Baby Boomers.

Capital market experts are also upbeat.

The on-demand business model (think Amazon Prime and Uber) continues to transform options and expectations for consumers and extends to home design, green spaces, retail planning and more. They want more immersive involvement with places and spaces and that is how value will be created and realized in the re-defined landscape of economics, technology and demographics.
