CalHFA Presentation NCSHA Annual Conference 2014

The Market Summary 1.Households with children are on a decline, currently ½ and down ¾ since the 1960s. These household types spawned the suburban sprawl when larger lots sizes, safe places for children outside cities where in demand. Today, views have changed. First households with children will be 1 in 4 by 2030 and the current generation having kids are okay with raising kids in urban environments. 2.Desire for large homes and lot sizes is going down. Gen Y, the upcoming largest homebuyer segment sees this home product as undesirable, both as hard to attain and maintain. They are commute/car adverse and want urban communities, close to people, transportation and entertainment. 3.As Gen Y continues to demand urban dwelling types, Gen X and Baby Boomers will be downsizing and will also be vying for similar housing products in order to be close to services, healthcare and transportation.

The Market Summary 4.Millennials redefining adulthood, eschewing traditional paths to adulthood. rearranging the order and importance of benchmarks like parenthood, marriage and home ownership -- they're staying true to values like loyalty and happiness on their own terms 5.Demand for small lot, multi-family dwelling type is increasing, current and future housing supply not anticipated to meet demand. Currently, we have too much inventory in housing product no body wants and not enough in urban, small lot, multi-family dwellings that are in demand. 6.Environmental laws require that MPOs in California prepare “sustainable communities strategies” (SCS) demonstrating how its region will meet GHG reduction targets set by the state’s Air Resources Board. These strategies are sure to include land use and transportation plans that essentially shorten distance between suburban communities to economic centers.

Key Finding - The Population: Households with Children Declining  Households with children on the decline  In the Baby-boom era, 50% of the households had children creating demand for large, detached suburban homes to raise children  Today, less than 1/3 household have children, by 2030 one in four households will contain kids  Between , over 80% of demand for new housing will be generated by households without children, creating demand for outside conventional single family homes.

Key Finding - The Population: Gen Y Insights  Gen Y, ages 15-32, largest segment of future home buyers by 2018  Understanding Gen Y Mindset  Millennials redefining adulthood, eschewing traditional paths to adulthood. rearranging the order and importance of benchmarks like parenthood, marriage and home ownership -- they're staying true to values like loyalty and happiness on their own terms.  Millennials want to "do well" for themselves, but that means personal accountability and happiness, not meeting the outmoded expectations of other generations or having the most sizable bank account. Their job prospects hit hard by the Great Recession, Millennials have faced a rockier road to reaching the traditional milestones that have defined adulthood for previous generations (home ownership, a dependable job).  Subset of Gen Y to watch:  WINKs: Women with incomes, no kids o WINKs are a particular group of young women—educated, discerning, motivated, and successful. They are attending and graduating college at higher rates then men. Women now make up 56 percent of college populations, and it is expected that within 10 years, 3 million more women than men could be attending college. Those college degrees turn into jobs, and jobs come with salaries, and salaries often wind up paying a mortgage.
