Corporate Housing Survey 2019

DENVER (PRWEB) MARCH 20, 2019

Corporate Housing By Owner (CHBO), has recently completed its 10th annual Corporate Housing Real Estate survey. For the first time, since the survey began, they are able to show definite trends in their specialized segment of the corporate housing industry.

The survey was open to anyone who owned or managed a “furnished”, monthly residential rental in 2018. According to The Corporate Housing Providers Association (CHPA), based on 2017 figures, the Corporate Housing industry as a whole is a 3.82-billion-dollar industry. CHBO provides a platform for owners, who offer furnished properties to the corporate community.

The 2018 survey results indicate the industry had its most profitable year to date. In 2018, 96% of survey respondents say their property was either profitable (76%) or broke even (19%). Only 4% of respondents stated their property was unprofitable. These numbers are encouraging for those contemplating entering this market.

Some of the notable trends revealed from the survey include a 7% overall increase in 6, 9 and 12 month lease terms. This is an encouraging statistic because longer leases lead to higher overall occupancy. Longer term leases mean less wear and tear on properties and typically reduced down time between renters, adding considerably to profits. It was also revealed that the percentage of owners giving a discount for longer term leases has been on a steady decline. Meaning owners aren't compromising their rates in exchange for longer term stays.

Also, worth noting is over the past decade the steady increase in the percentage, of property owners who have been a landlord for 10+ years. This is evidence that the furnished real estate market, for an increasing number of owners, is proving to be profitable.
