Are rents sustainable
My question is whether you believe rents in boston are sustainable for the long term. Current rents are dependent on millenials being willing to live together sometimes 3 to 4 roommates to an apartment. Do you think this is just a phase and eventually young professionals will migrate to cheaper cities where an apartment can be had for the price of a room in Boston? Or will young professionals leave due to the inaffordibility of the housing in the area? Curious to hear your thoughts.
