About this event

In recent months, it has become evident that the housing market is expected to lead the U.S. out of a slowly recovering economic downturn. Record low mortgage rates and the effects of Covid-19 have boosted new home sales rates in the U.S. to historical highs, and this upward trend is likely to extend into the medium- to long-term horizon.

With a burgeoning Millennial population entering their years of household formation, it was only a matter of time before favourable demographics started to accelerate the growth of residential development around gateway cities.

However, the U.S. residential landscape has changed drastically over the course of the past decade, and it is crucial to understand the dynamics of this sector and the players involved to take advantage of the opportunity presented.

In this webinar, GRT Asset Management Senior Vice President James Buchanan and Vice President Sankar Sadhananthan will explore the underlying trends that drive the performance of the U.S. residential market and the fundamental changes within the U.S. homebuilder landscape.

Highlights include:

  • Key trends driving the performance and resilience of the U.S. residential market
  • Changes to the U.S. homebuilder landscape; and
  • How homebuilders have adapted their business models to overcome the challenges presented and drive organic growth
