New Legal & General Study on Millennials and Housing Looks at Effects of Covid-19 on Millennial Home Buying Plans

Legal & General

68% of millennials said Covid had some impact on their thinking about where they could live 36% of millennial parents and those already saving for a home want to move to smaller cities/towns Among U.S. millennials living in suburban areas, 27% completely abandoned their home-owning plans due to Covid Even as a second wave of the pandemic threatens to upend the fragile normalcy people were resuming, the Covid-19 pandemic was already having a profound effect on millennials’ attitudes and realities around housing. Today, the second part of a broad new study conducted by Legal & General Group, U.S. Millennials and Home Ownership – A Distant Dream for Most, digs into the effects the Covid-19 pandemic has had on this generation’s attempts to get onto the housing ladder and paints an ongoing picture of the housing difficulties millennials have had and will continue to have in coming months and years. This second segment of the data-rich study, While Delta Portends Further Disruption, Covid Has Already Thwarted Millennials’ Home Buying Plans, takes a deep dive into the effects of the pandemic on specific demographics within the 25- to 40-year-old U.S. millennial population. And the consequences have been formidable: even as of April/May 2021, 12% of millennials across all age groups said that Covid-19 had caused them to abandon their plans of home-ownership completely. Legal & General Group Chief Executive Nigel Wilson commented: “With the Delta variant now on the rise in the U.S., it’s key to understand how and whether the pandemic has put the brakes on millennial home buying. Here we see that housing affordability, already an issue for them in big cities and other desirable areas, became further unattainable to people in their mid to late 30s, many of whom opted to return to their hometowns, in some cases even their parents’ houses. This is a societal problem with significant repercussions: millennials form the largest working cohort, yet many can’t get onto the ladder of home-ownership.” Study Co-Author and Legal & General Corporate Affairs Director John Godfrey notes: “Prices for homes in the U.S. have been rising sharply, while wages, particularly for younger workers, have stagnated. With the awareness that Covid has further stymied home buying plans of a significant portion of millennials, lenders and builders alike should be looking toward solutions that will help this demographic get onto the housing ladder.” Legal & General’s study looks not only at housing affordability, but also at geographic and demographic choices based on age and life stage, and at various drivers shaping millennials’ attitudes and plans, including Covid-19 and its role in their ability—or inability—to purchase a home. Future segments will look in-depth at the wage stagnation and inflation equation; the intergenerational housing gap; home-ownership on U.S. Millennials’ bucket list; student debt and the cost of healthcare; and where Millennials stand on retirement and other savings vehicles.

About the Study Legal & General undertook proprietary research into the attitudes and changes, as well as geographic shifts, U.S. Millennials are experiencing in relation to home purchases and affordable housing. The U.S. Millennials and Home Ownership research was compiled using original survey data 875 U.S. based Millennials who don’t own a property, then segmented into three distinct age groups and other demographic markers. The survey work was carried out by Legal & General. Fieldwork was undertaken during March and April, 2021. All surveys were carried out online.

VTS NAMED TO THE 2021 FORBES CLOUD 100 FOR THE THIRD CONSECUTIVE YEAR

VTS

VTS, the commercial real estate industry’s (CRE) leading leasing, marketing, and asset management platform, today announced it has been named to the 2021 Forbes Cloud 100, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world, published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners and Salesforce Ventures. VTS is changing the way that commercial real estate (CRE) does business — disrupting a $15 trillion industry by becoming the modern operating system for CRE— one of the world’s largest and least tech-enabled asset classes, offering solutions for office, retail and industrial owners and driving the industry-wide shift towards using real-time data to make portfolio decisions. “We’re honored to once again be named to the Forbes Cloud 100 at a time when technology has proved to be essential for commercial real estate to navigate the uncertainty the COVID-19 pandemic has presented,” said Nick Romito, CEO of VTS. “Now more than ever, tech has earned its place within CRE, and we’re proud that our products have provided the technology, support, and guidance they’ve needed to weather the storm. A special thank you to our team who have continued to innovate, develop, and deliver. This recognition is a true testament to their hard work and tenacity.” Following what was one of the most challenging years for the CRE industry in recent history, VTS continued to be a valuable resource for its customer base, which includes more than 45,000 commercial real estate professionals including respected industry leaders Blackstone, Brookfield Properties, LaSalle Investment Management, Hines, Boston Properties, Oxford Properties, JLL, and CBRE. In June 2020, VTS launched VTS Market & Marketplace, the CRE industry’s first integrated, online marketing platform that enables landlords and their agency teams to market and lease their available spaces remotely for the first time. In October 2020, VTS released VTS Data, the industry’s only pulse on what’s happening in the market today, capturing active tenant demand and projecting future supply fluctuations. In December 2020, VTS launched its free monthly VTS Office Demand Index (VODI), the earliest available indicator of forthcoming office leases and tenant sentiments, locally and nationally, representing up to 99-percent of new demand for office spaces within the core seven markets, including New York City, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., San Francisco, Boston, Chicago, and Seattle. In addition to the numerous, highly-anticipated product launches announced throughout the pandemic to help landlords weather the storm and navigate their portfolios, in March 2021, VTS entered into an agreement to acquire Rise Buildings, a property operations and tenant experience technology company used by top landlords including Blackstone, Hines, and CIM Group. In July 2021, VTS announced that the newly acquired product, now branded as VTS Rise, has become the most adopted tenant experience technology in proptech as VTS customers chose VTS Rise for their portfolios. As of July 1, 2021, over 300 million square feet in 161 cities and over 500 buildings worldwide are managed on VTS Rise. For the sixth straight year, the Cloud 100 reviews submissions from hundreds of cloud startups and private companies each year. The Cloud 100 evaluation process involved ranking companies across four factors: market leadership (35-percent), estimated valuation (30-percent), operating metrics (20-percent), and people & culture (15-percent). For market leadership, the Cloud 100 enlists the help of a judging panel of 34 public cloud company CEOs who assist in evaluating and ranking their private company peers. “The companies of the Cloud 100 list represent the best and brightest emerging companies in the cloud sector,” said Alex Konrad, senior editor at Forbes. “Every year, it gets more difficult to make this list — meaning even more elite company for those who do. Congratulations to each of the 2021 Cloud 100 honorees and to our 20 Rising Stars up-and-comers poised to join their ranks.” “The private cloud ecosystem continues to see historic rates of digital transformation,” said Byron Deeter, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. “Private cloud valuations are getting bigger as the market’s appetite for cloud continues to grow. These founders represent the absolute best in cloud computing today, and they appear likely to follow in the footsteps of our esteemed Cloud 100 alumni. Congratulations to these cloud leaders!” "How we work has undergone a paradigm shift and businesses of all shapes and sizes are reimagining the tools that are needed to ensure working from anywhere is a sustainable, long-lasting solution," said Alex Kayyal, Managing Partner, Salesforce Ventures. “The last 18 months have made digital transformation an urgent imperative and the cloud has never been more pivotal in powering our new digital economy. The companies on this list represent the leaders and businesses shaping the future of the cloud ecosystem and we are excited to partner with Bessemer Venture Partners and Forbes to honor these trailblazers of the industry.” The Forbes 2021 Cloud 100 and 20 Rising Stars lists are published online at www.forbes.com/cloud100. Highlights of the list appear in the September 2021 issue of Forbes magazine. The Cloud 100 and the 20 Rising Stars companies are publicly recognized at this year’s virtual Cloud 100 experience, hosted by Bessemer Venture Partners, Salesforce Ventures, and Forbes on August 10th at thecloud100.com.
