The shortest path for a renter to become a homebuyer is by working with a capable real estate sales professional.
Millennials represent the largest group of current homebuyers (40%), and are also roughly 65% of the rental population. Three out of eight Millennials believe they’ll rent for life. Also, the majority of those remaining are planning to buy a home within the next 36 months.
And while renters today are more affluent than ever, many Millennials don’t know if they’re qualified to buy a home. Real estate professionals servicing these renters can provide the counsel and local expertise needed to help them enter the home resale market, purchase a home, and forge a fruitful relationship in the process.
Furthermore, 88% of renters working with real estate agents say they’ll re-use or refer their agents.
Rental Beast Gateway will be included with your Triangle MLS subscription at no additional cost.
Access to Rental Beast Pro, including elevated access to owner-sourced rental listings, homebuyer conversion tools, lead filtering, and more are available to Triangle MLS subscribers at a discounted rate. Details coming soon!
We plan to launch in the first quarter of 2023. As we get closer to launch keep an eye out for updates via email and within your MLS platform.
This partnership advances Triangle MLS's mission to be the center of excellence for residential rental data throughout the Triangle area.
By integrating with Rental Beast’s extensive suite of tools and rental inventory, Triangle MLS subscribers can process rental transactions more efficiently while leveraging the rental marketplace to build a renewable pipeline of future homebuyers.
Regardless of whether rentals have been a focal point of your business to date, consider that almost every first-time homebuyer is a renter currently, or living at home. What better way to create a constant pipeline of first-time homebuyers than getting early access to them while they’re still renting? And, you can also cultivate deep, meaningful, and long lasting relationships with future buyers.
Our integration with Rental Beast can help brokers and agents more efficiently support clients looking to rent in the near future.
Many, if not most of today’s home resale transactions are conditioned upon sellers finding their next home. With inventory constrained at record levels, oftentimes the best and only option for placing the sell-side of a resale transaction is with a rental.
As we get closer to launch date, all Triangle MLS subscribers are invited to receive a free, custom product demo. Simply Contact Rental Beast to connect with a Rental Beast industry professional.
