Hi there,
CEO MESSAGE
Are you marketing to millennials?
June marks Youth Month, a time to reflect on the successes of the younger generation. And one of these is their entry into the real estate market. BetterBond says the average first-time buyer age of their applicants currently sits at 36. With their greater disposable income, millennials are even reclaiming South Africa’s inner cities.
Is your marketing aligned with this property-driven demographic? Sound off in this month’s poll. Also, take a look at this month’s Standpoint blog. It’s a great share for anyone interested in becoming a property practitioner.
All the best,
Mark Buttress
CEO of Prop Data
