According to Fact Tank at the Pew Research Center, 2015 will be the year the “Millennial” generation (Ages 18-34) will surpass the Baby Boom generation.

I'll be interested to see what @Michael Kugler comes up with, but it's kind of like as @Peter R. said, trying to make a start-up cable company in a town where it already has a monopoly.Airbnb has four million listings worldwide -- more than the top five hotel companies combined -- 500,000 nightly stays, and they are quickly becoming the choice of millennial travelers.

With the tighter lending standards by banks and the "wait and see" attitude of the millennials, we predict the demand for single family rentals will continue to increase over the next 3 years. 2.

With the combination of the millennial generation buying fewer houses, and the local demographics leaning heavily towards renters, I feel very confident that we will continue to have a large pool of people to fill our properties.3.

If this ends up working for you, please let me know.I'd recommend a kevo quickset smart lock with the kevo smart hub, which allows wifi access to the lock so you can lock/unlock the door from anywhere. eKey handoff is pretty simple with it as well.I haven't looked into the smart smoke detectors or water detectors, but I do like your thinking behind these devices.But from our findings, we've found millennial renters are willing to pay a 10-15% rent premium for smart home amenities, so I'd say its worth looking into to see how IoT devices can impact your bottom line.

Housing is 2/3 cheaper than LA and the $900k+ prices of MFs in LA are just too much for a millennial like myself.

The largest group of millennials are currently 24 and 25 years old and in their prime renting years.My personal belief is that these demographics are pushing the apartment markets to heights it had never seen before.

There's plenty of room for the Bay Area to continue this upward trend because of land scarcity, much more difficult lending practices than 2005, job growth, income growth, and pent-up demand from the Millennial generation. 

One thing for sure, most millennials will become renters forever due to a massive student loan and other debts.

The nice apartments in a 4plex + are usually one and 2 bedrooms and are perfect for professionals and millennials that do not need a lot of Sq.
