“HOMZ ETF (NYSE: $HOMZ) is the future of real
estate investment”
Point Roberts WA, Delta BC – March 25, 2019 –
(Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news
source and leading investor resource covering homebuilder and real estate
stocks, issues commentary from a recent interview with Alex Pettee, CFA, President of Hoya Capital Real Estate, discussing
the new Hoya Capital
Housing ETF (NYSE: HOMZ).
Hoya Capital Real Estate is
proving that investment doesn’t have to be an alienating concept with their
launch of HOMZ, the first exchange traded fund (ETF) to offer diversified investment
options throughout the entire US housing industry.
It originally started as a
“mock” company as part of an independent study in REIT portfolio management,
for a Master's in Real Estate Finance program. Within a half decade, the idea
of an accessible investment advising and research company had been built into
an institutional platform.
An interview with Alex
Pettee, CFA, President of Hoya Capital Real Estate reveals the exciting
developments Hoya has made surrounding ETFs in the housing sector.

“HOMZ
has been very well received by the market and we've been overwhelmed by the
amount of press and investor interest. To our benefit, the housing market is
always topical, and we believe that HOMZ is positioned to be the reference
barometer for the entire US housing industry in the same way that other major
ETFs are used to measure industry performance. The central macroeconomic theme
of rising housing costs that HOMZ captures seems to be resonating with younger
investors.”
As Pettee puts it, “Hoya
Capital Real Estate was founded with the idea of making real estate more
accessible to all investors.”
With the housing market in
North America being virtually impenetrable for a younger generation of
investors he continues to explain how HOMZ can be a powerful strategy.
“We
think that HOMZ gives investors, not only millennials but anyone feeling the
effects of rising housing costs, an opportunity to get their foot in the door
by investing in the companies expected to benefit from rising rents and home
values, including many of the companies actually collecting our rent or
mortgage checks every month. Younger investors in particular have a strong
affinity for ETFs, making it the perfect investment wrapper for HOMZ. We believe
that ETFs are one of the greatest financial innovations of the last century
because of how truly investor-friendly they are. With HOMZ, you get the liquidity,
transparency, and all-day-tradability that is lacking in other platforms and
investment vehicles. Plus, it's hard to beat the cost and tax efficiency of
ETFs.”
Being a reference barometer
for the entire US housing industry is no small job. The amount and type of
research that goes into achieving this standard is explained through a keen
observation of macroeconomic trends. Restrictive zoning applications and rising
costs to build new residential homes, coupled with housing costs exceeding the
growth of wages has lead to an under investment of newer developments.
“Meanwhile,
the largest “mini-generation” of Americans, the age cohort currently between
25-30 is just now entering the housing markets in full force, creating a
perfect storm of factors that is continuing to drive up rents and housing costs.
The effect of this underinvestment in residential construction reverberates
throughout the industry.”
As the market starts to
trend in a positive direction, companies that provide efficient and innovative
platforms to enter the housing market are ripe for the moment.
“We
believe that HOMZ effectively captures these underlying improvements in
efficiency and innovation throughout the sector, but also feel that HOMZ is,
itself, part of this innovation.”
Being an integral part of
the innovation in this particular space allows for more growth and new ideas.
Although the next steps tend to be dictated by the clients and investor’s
needs, the company shows no signs of stasis.
“...We
have started to roll out our “Real Estate Robo Advisor” platform which uses
real estate ETFs to construct portfolios for clients based on their individual
investment needs and objectives. Clients’ portfolios are built based on their
investment objectives, their risk tolerance, and whether they are an owner or a
renter of real estate. We believe that renters, in particular, lack the
necessary exposure to real estate and could benefit by increasing their
allocation to housing and housing-related assets…”
Through all the impressive
developments and innovation that Hoya has already achieved, the original idea
of the company rings true as the company hopes to “... eventually
become the Wealthfront or Betterment of real estate.”
