A Review Of 2022’s Most Promising Real Estate Trends For Investors What Does The Future Hold For Real Estate Investors?
Introduction In this post-pandemic era, we are currently witnessing a revival of the housing market. Being a resilient sector, it has bounced back quickly after the economic slowdown and is now comfortably on the road to recovery. Now, as we slowly move towards a new year, what can real estate investors expect from the market? We will quickly walk you through the real estate market predictions and review projections through this presentation. In the next slide, you will be introduced to the major real estate trends.
Healthy Rental Market Rise In Scams & Frauds Surge In Foreclosures Increased Use Of Technology Demand For warehouse spaces
With most states in the U.S. witnessing a seller’s market, homebuyers will prefer rental spaces and wait for the market to cool down.
Real estate scams and fraudulent schemes are proliferating because of factors spurred by the pandemic.
Investors can use this opportunity to grow their portfolios.
Because of fears related to the virus, people will continue to communicate online, even for property buying purposes. E-commerce businesses are flourishing and with people seeking home deliveries, the demand for warehouse spaces will only go up.
1. Healthy Rental Market With less supply and more demand for homes and multi-family apartments, sellers will have more negotiating power to sell properties at their asking rates. Because of this, buyers—mostly people buying a home for the first time—will choose to delay their buying plans and look for rentals instead. In such a scenario, real estate investors can jump into the rental market and make the best of the situation.
2. Rise In Scams & Fake Real Estate Schemes The pandemic has led to an overwhelming surge in fake rental schemes and real estate scams. As more and more investors turn online to begin the property search process, they may fall prey to spammers and scammers who are waiting to trick them out of their money. This medium of communication grants them anonymity, which is why investors must walk the extra mile to maintain cyber hygiene while looking for properties. In addition to this, do read reviews of real estate agencies before you decide to join forces with them.
3. Surge In Foreclosures While the economy is getting back on track, many people lost their jobs because of the pandemic and they might be looking at evictions next year. The situation might be worsened with mortgage grace periods coming to an end. To avoid facing foreclosures and even fraudulent foreclosure relief scams, people may choose to sell their homes. Here, real estate investors can offer to buy such homes fast in exchange for cash which will benefit both parties.
4. Increased Use Of Technology While virtual home tours and e-signing solutions have become a part and parcel of the industry, there is so much more that’s happening in this arena. Now, AI-based algorithms can help investors detect financial scams and prevent spams. In addition to this, it can also inform investors about the feasibility of investing in a particular property. With predictive analytics tools, investors may be acquainted with shifts in demographics, the viability of a future construction project, as well as stats about the true value of a home. If harnessed properly, these new developments can prove to be a boon for investors.
5. Demand For Warehouse Spaces Interest in warehouse spaces is already at an all-time high. In fact, experts reviewed and predicted that Britain might face an acute warehouse space supply shortage within a year. In the U.S., more warehouse units have cropped up but they aren’t enough to keep up with the sudden strong demand. With more and more businesses choosing the e-commerce route to sell their products, real estate investors can cash in on this opportunity and acquire warehouse spaces. Given that they come with longer-term leases and have low maintenance needs, such spaces can be considered to be solid investments in 2022.
