Landlords with homes in suburban areas will benefit by understanding the needs and desires of the young Millenial renting families. Millennials love urban life, but often move to suburban areas when they begin growing their families. Landlords can take note of this and this demographic’s needs. While staying within the bounds of the Fair Housing Act, landlords can still offer amenities that appeal to these demographics.

Make sure that in your advertising you highlight amenities interesting to this group. Are there good schools nearby? What about parks? Family-friendly entertainment? Remember, just because these Millennials have moved out of the city doesn’t mean they don’t still desire a walkable neighborhood and accessibility. Plus, they are looking for energy efficiency.

Also, keep in mind that Millennials tend to search for places where their pets are welcome. You might as well indulge them because as more people are given prescriptions for animals, you will probably end up with an animal in the home regardless. Plus, plenty of well-employed, ultra-clean millennials will pass on a home for rent that won’t allow their pets. You probably also know that there are ample tenants who will merely try to hide their pets until they move out knowing it will cost them their security deposit. Unfortunately, courteous, responsible pet owners will see your policy and then pass on your home for rent while less courteous, less responsible pet owners will take their place.

How To Market Your Millennial-Friendly Home

Make sure that you feature your rental on the Facebook market place, because plenty of young parents check Facebook marketplace for rental homes in the suburbs, and if they can’t find anything there, they search the marketplace for a nearby town before ever checking the newspaper. Also, get a page on your website devoted to each rental home you own. Add in a video tour and plenty of photos. Remember to highlight the amenities Millennials love.
