According to a new report from FreddieMac, more renters feel better about their finances, like where they are living and view renting favorably. The report, “Profile of Today’s Renter,” suggests that while finances are better today, renters are comfortable with continuing to rent, with a majority expecting their rent will stay the same in the next 12 months while many are more uncertain about owning. Millennials say renting is a good choice for now, and are also to stay renting. Only four in ten Millennial renters indicate a move in the short-term is likely. Data in the report is from Harris Poll whom on behalf of Freddie Mac, conducted an online survey within the United States via its QuickQuery product six different times between August 2014 and March 2017.
