That being said don't sell out the "millennial" generation just yet.

The millennial generation was defined as someone who was born between the years 1979 to 1993.Best U.S. markets for buying and selling single-family rentals in 2017

If only Millennials (we) actually cared about their credit score instead of eating a $90 sushi meal and posting a picture of it on Instagram we could actually get somewhere....

I've written about the market pretty extensively in the Sacramento Forums, but this post I wrote here pretty much sums it up:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/621/topics/396725-millennial-migration-to-sacramento-2017---here-comes-the-rushHere's the highlight reel:Low Inventory -- Less than 5,000 new housing units built this yearHigh Demand -- Huge population surge from the Bay Area, 18,000+Will be #4 hottest metro market in the nation for 2017 -- 7.2% appreciation, 4.9% increase in sales growthWill be the #1 rental growth market in the nation in 2017, with year-on-year rent growth of 10% this year and 8.5% next yearCity recently approved $10 million dollar fund to lure tech companies from the Bay Area and hopes to add 5,000 jobs in the next 5 yearsI'm currently working with a least a dozen other Bay Area investors with the exact same investing goals, from all the large brand-name tech companies that the area is known for.

There is a lot of talk about Millennials not getting married and forming traditional households, but that trend is just not that strong in Utah.

Millennials are having kids much later in life and aren't necessarily looking for good schools when they don't have kids yet.

That said, the employment trends are solid and the demographic trends where a vast majority of the 90 million millennials don’t own homes but will eventually buy as they build families, tells me there could be solid floor to any market correction here.

In the Greater Cleveland region, you can find what you're looking for in the B grade cities of Lakewood and Parma, zip codes 44107, 44129, 44134.You'll find $100-150,000 MF (likely a two-family) with a solid tenant base, specifically in Lakewood where many millennials and young professionals working in downtown Cleveland prefer to live.

Maybe I'm prejudging here.Jeff  Yes you are prejudging there because many tenants that want to buy have saved up 3% for FHAMany millennial's have saved up enough money of a down payment to buy a house but they are on the fence on getting a mortgage; sometimes renting for a while is a good idea and getting financed later is better for them, test drive the neighborhood so to speak.People that have credit problems can save money just like people that don't have credit problemsYou can have credit problems but you can be self-employed or you have to much debt; those two issues stop a mortgage cold;  doesn't necessarily mean they have credit problems per se.Over 45% of current middle-class housing mortgage applicants get denied because of either DTE debt to earnings ratio or-perhaps 1 year on the job or -perhaps self-employed incomeMy students have access to a FICO coach for their tenant buyers that raises their FICO score so they can get a mortgageThe lease to own business model is helping sellers so they don't have a lot of equity in helping buyers by need some time to get a mortgage, it is not wholesaling it is closer to being a realtor

(Though, the theory is that the overall demographic trend in the U.S. toward Millennials having a preference for renting could be part of a mild rise in rents.
