Residential Developments

ECONorthwest has conducted market and feasibility analyses for residential projects ranging from single developments to plans for whole communities. These studies focus on identifying housing demand by ownership and structure type, unmet housing needs in the market, and the mix of housing attributes that will produce the highest net returns given market prices. ECONorthwest's expertise in urban economics and finance helps it to determine market niches based on key demographic and lifecycle trends that affect housing choice and to optimize the profitability of development plans.
