Traits to Look For Federal Reserve Bank President Raphael Bostic stated recently, “Every city has its unique narrative as to why it got to where it got. I don’t think there is a general formula that if you hit each point at a certain level you guarantee an outcome.”Bostic’s insight highlights the need to analyze basic market data and trends. Moreover, the below criteria are a guideline to housing markets that may see increased demand for private lending. Educated Employee Base: Areas that have an above-average percentage of workers with advanced education experience tend to be more stable. This resonates with a lower foreclosure rate and reduced risk of mortgage payment delinquencies. Corporate Headquarters: These hubs of business activity and projected expansion offer a significant return on investment with a lower risk profile compared to more isolated areas Youthful Workforce: A younger employee population is positively correlated with robust private lending activity. Millennial workers tend to migrate to areas where there are employment opportunities and high accessibility to desirable amenities.
