JobsEQ’s Housing Demand tool shows how new jobs drive housing needs. Site selectors, companies, and housing authorities can see how hiring plans translate into demand for local housing units.
Anticipate Housing Needs Before They Become Gaps
Estimate how many housing units will be required when an employer grows in your region. JobsEQ accounts for the actual mix of occupations tied to the expanding industry so results reflect the true impact of workforce growth.
Support Confident Site Selection Decisions
See how projects influence local housing markets. Use clear forecasts to guide site selection, strengthen proposals, and lower risk.
Align Workforce and Housing Planning
Connect hiring needs with housing demand. JobsEQ factors in wages, budgets, and the types of homes workers need, distinguishing renters from buyers and showing the price points at which they will rent or purchase.
Forecast the Impact of New Jobs
Enter the industry, number of new hires, and location. JobsEQ instantly models occupational demand, candidate supply, and induced housing needs.
Strengthen Workforce & Housing Policy
Housing authorities and planners can justify programs and investments with evidence-backed forecasts, ensuring resources meet real-world demand.
Evaluate Site Feasibility With Confidence
Site selectors and employers can assess whether a community can support incoming workers with adequate housing, preventing future shortages.
Detailed Occupational Breakdowns
See which occupations new hires will fill, how many candidates are available locally, and where gaps may appear. Understand where in-migration may be necessary and how those new workers contribute to housing demand.
Housing Unit Demand by Type
Break demand into single-family, multifamily, and other unit categories. The model uses regional wages and projected budgets of incoming workers to estimate whether they will rent or buy, and at what price points.
Regional Flexibility
Run the analysis for counties, metros, or custom regions. Model the ripple effects where they matter most.
Clear Visuals and Tables
Exportable charts break down housing needs by dollar amount cohorts, while tables show demand over time. Each analysis comes with a written summary and infographic-style report that makes results easy to share with stakeholders.
