Why Affordable Housing?
Affordable housing has become one of the most important issues affecting the growth in the Florida market. This area has been ignored by builders and developers over the last few years as builders concentrated on up-scale housing during the recent housing boom period. With the significant growth in Florida and with affordable housing construction not keeping pace, the problem has escalated to the point of jeopardizing future growth. Today, there is a significant shortage of both public and private sector employees such as teachers, nurses, firefighters, policemen and service workers. One of the major reasons for the shortage of employees is the lack of affordable housing. Although this problem is significant, it also presents a great opportunity to invest during the front end of an affordable housing growth cycle that could last 5 to 7 years. Our group has assembled several opportunities for investing in the affordable housing market, each of which provides for attractive financial returns, with some having positive cash flow in the year following construction. Overall, we believe the investment in affordable housing is an attractive option for investors interested in diversifying their portfolio.
Key Market Condition Facts
- The S.W. Florida real estate market has seen significant growth in housing starts over the last four years, due to the influx of second home buyers and retiring baby boomers.
- Property values in Lee and Collier counties have increased significantly over the last three years.
- Large investors have focused on Florida growth and have invested significant capital in the Florida real estate market.
- Due to the significant expansion of the Florida market, the unemployment rate has dropped to 2.2 percent and all employers, public and private, are having difficulty in hiring workers to support this growth.
- Initially the S.W. Florida real estate investment opportunities focused on high end housing, but today have changed to a more affordable housing in response to the great demand from the working middle class community.
- Many government officials believe that the affordable housing problem may be the number one problem affecting future growth.
