A recent cultural shift by the millennial generation focuses on community, affordability, flexibility and not ownership, valuing experiences over possession.
In our densely populated cities, apartments are getting smaller and rents higher, making it increasingly difficult for young professionals to find a place to live. Globally, there are increasing levels of loneliness, depression and anxiety where people a more transient and so, feel disconnected. Residential Living is a manifestation of this need for connectivity which is becoming increasingly in demand.
Residential Living focuses on delivering everything this new emerging resident demands, a fulfilling overall community experience with a fully furnished, all-inclusive offering.
The rising cost of housing and a transient work lifestyle means more young professionals are renting than ever before. The growing number of new IT business start-ups in large cities is attracting more millennials, creating further demand. Young professionals are seeking affordable, convenient, quality rental accommodation, to live, work, connect and belong within a community of like-minded millennials. Residential Living room size offers affordability for tenants whilst delivering a long-term financially sustainable product with higher income per square foot and improved yield for investors.
