Are Investors Overlooking This Growing Housing Segment?
Yahoo Finance ·
Everyone agrees that there's a housing shortage in the U.S, though estimates of the gap vary widely. Realtor.com put the housing gap at over four million homes, while JPMorgan Chase says it's probably closer to 1.2 million homes. Either way, well over a million new homes are needed to match demand. Home prices are also at an all-time high. The National Association of Realtors puts the median price at $440,600. That's about five times the median household income.
