Over the past few years, Indonesia's housing market has seen unheard-of growth, and it appears that the pattern is set to continue. However, a number of factors, such as the high cost of housing, the unwillingness of Generation Z and above to purchase homes, the trend of hybrid and remote working, and the trend of younger generations not wanting to settle in one place, may have an impact on the future of the housing market in Indonesia. Over the past few years, Indonesia's housing market has grown at an unprecedented rate, and it appears that this trend will persist in the future.
The high cost of housing, the hesitation of Generation Z and above to purchase homes, the trend of hybrid and remote working, and the trend of younger generations not wanting to settle in one place are just a few of the factors that may have an impact on the future of the housing market in Indonesia.
The high cost of housing is one of the most pressing issues affecting Indonesia's housing market. This is primarily caused by the high demand for housing in urban areas, which has caused a rise in housing costs. This has made it difficult for many Indonesians, especially those with low to middle incomes, to afford a home.
In addition, it appears that members of Generation Z and above are reluctant to buy homes and would rather rent them. This is partly because of the high cost of real estate and the burden of a large mortgage, but it's also because younger generations' attitudes toward homeownership are changing. Young people frequently prioritize freedom and mobility over home ownership, and this trend is likely to last into the future.

The trend toward remote and hybrid working may also have an impact on Indonesia's housing market in the future. There may be less demand for office space in urban areas as more people work from home, which could cause the housing market to change. People might be more likely to relocate from urban areas to more rural ones where they can experience higher standards of living and lower costs of living.
The tendency of younger generations to move around a lot rather than settle down could also have an effect on the housing market. People may be more likely to move around and explore different parts of the country than to settle down in one place as a result of the rise of digital nomads and remote working. Instead of more conventional long-term leases or ownership, this might increase demand for short-term rental properties.
In conclusion, a number of factors that could influence supply and demand make the future of the Indonesian housing market uncertain. The changing needs of younger generations should be taken into consideration by real estate developers, especially with regard to flexibility and affordability. This could entail looking into new housing models that meet the needs of the evolving workforce, such as co-living, micro-living, or serviced apartments. In order to appeal to the younger generations who are tech savvy, developers should also think about integrating smart home technology into their buildings. The capacity to adjust to shifting trends and needs will, in the end, be the key to success in the Indonesian housing market.

1 年Well, well, well, look at your fancy article on Indonesia's housing market...thumbs up Prof Dr. Aswin Rahadi... Maybe Gen Z is smart for not wanting to be burdened by the joys of homeownership, like fixing leaky pipes and mowing the lawn. But in all seriousness, it's crucial for real estate developers to keep up with the changing needs of younger generations by making housing more flexible, affordable, and integrating smart technology. Who needs a home that's not smart, right? Anyway, keep up the great work, brother, your knowledge and expertise in this domain are truly a rare combination!
