Mega-Trends Driving U.S. Home Services Industry
- Record Home Values: Home service spending is expected to increase in line with further increasing home values
- Per the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), overall prices of homes have risen 13.6% YoY, the largest increase observed in the past 34 years
- This increase is mainly due to demographic tailwinds and a pandemic-induced shift in demand from city apartments towards larger homes in the suburbs
- Rising Interest Rates: With interest rates (30 Year Fixed Rate Mortgage) jumping from 2.7% in Jan-2021 to the current rate of ~6.9%, homebuying has slowed down while home upgrades and maintenance have continued to increase consistent with trends witnessed during the COVID pandemic in 2020 and 2021
- Increasing Homeownership Rates: Homeownership rates have increased over the last 5 years, from 62.9% in 2016 to 65.8%, resulting in further home improvement spending
- Aging Housing Infrastructure: The average age of houses has continued to increase to 47 years
