2021 Trends: What’s reshaping the real estate scene
The year
2021 marks a period when the real estate community is expected to aggressively push
forward with new strategies that are more effective in a post-COVID-19 era.
Foresight, agility and resiliency will all play a part in the industry’s significant
transformation. However, amid its evolution, what will remain is its continuing
sharp focus on technology, innovation and customer experience.
With the
direction that the industry is currently taking, some trends are going to be
more prominent this year than others. We
have rounded up three of the trends that we believe will have the most impact
on property space in 2021. The three trends to watch for are:
·
Sustainability
- Sustainable real estate projects will gain traction
this year, as individuals and corporations become more conscious of their
environmental impact. Buildings with low energy-related carbon emissions will
be more appealing and attract higher interest. In their developments, property
developers can stay ahead of their market competitors by prioritizing
sustainability.
·
Property
technology (PropTech) - Keeping abreast of and applying new
technologies disrupting the sector is vital to any property developer’s success.
To lag in this area may result in a company losing to their more tech-driven competitors.
PropTech has made possible customized 3D floor plans and virtual tours that are
accessible via smartphone devices. It leads to more empowered tenants and
customers and stronger collaborations in the rental segment.
·
Co-living
and sharing economy - The co-living phenomenon has
emerged as people become more conscious of costs. However, affordability is not
the only factor driving the popularity of this concept, especially among young
people. Sharing of responsibilities is also an attractive benefit for people
opting for co-living. This is the area worth exploring for property developers
this year.
