A balanced housing stock is a subjective evaluation that creates a diverse housing stock, providing best possible choice in:
Housing Types (Mix Of Single Family/ Multi-family);
Size Of Housing (Mix Of Sq. Feet/ Bedrooms, Etc.);
Age Of Housing (New Construction/ Renovated/Historic);
Affordability (Mix Of Price Ranges Of Homes/Rents);
Amenities (E.G.’S-garage/ Recreation/ Off Street Parking/ Parks
# Bathrooms/ Updated Electric, Etc.);
Location; And Housing Density
To attract a wide range of residents with varying family sizes and household incomes resulting in full occupancy, increased demand for homes and rentals, with the highest possible income tax potential and appreciating property and rental income values.
