Javier Benson, Vice President of Business Development and Marketplace Operations for RealtyShares, joins Cheddar for its "House Rules" segment, sponsored by Chase Home Lending. Benson talks about what you need to consider before investing in real estate. A few key things millennials are looking for in the housing market include 9- or 10-foot ceilings, bike racks, green spaces, and vehicle charging stations. He says that a sense of community is becoming much more important to young adults who are looking around for real estate. Plus, the top two factors in deciding where to live are crime and schools. Benson talks about how millennials are concerned about those factors, but are also trying to stay pretty close to urban areas. Also, he explains how technology has changed the real estate game for the better.
