AFIRE Podcast #79: Build-To-Rent Boom

(Featuring Stacy Krumin, Partner, Real Estate Practice & Global Board Member, Squire Patton Boggs, and John Thomas, Partner, Real Estate Practice Leader, Squire Patton Boggs)

The future is bright for build-to-rent housing, and institutional investors are increasingly looking at investing in the sector.

Build-to-rent is hot. Demographics; economic changes; generational shifts in desires, values and priorities; and a pandemic have come together to accelerate growth in what was already one of the fastest growing classes of real estate investment.

Demand for single-family rental homes continues to exceed supply, partly fueled by a surge in demand for rental product from high-income renters. Over the past year and a half, this sector has attracted nine- and 10- figure investments from well-known investors.

On this episode of the AFIRE Podcast, Stacy Krumin and John Thomas examine the best ways to take advantage of this expanding market while staying mindful of its unique challenges.

This podcast is based on the article “Build to Rent Boom” from Summit Journal (Summer 2021).
