Many consumers are renting single-family homes rather than purchasing. According to a new Parks Associates study, Single-Family Renters: Connectivity & Smart Home, this trend creates a unique and expanding market for build-to-rent (BTR) developers, internet service providers, residential security companies, and smart home solution providers.  

The research revealed that roughly 60% of single-family renters find having security systems and smart home devices pre-installed makes a home more appealing to renters.

Some businesses opt for fully integrated security systems, while 8% rely on stand-alone devices like smart locks, cameras, or video doorbells. Cybersecurity is also a major concern, with 57% of SMBs subscribing to a cybersecurity or antivirus service and 82% taking steps to reduce cyber threats, such as installing security software (44%).
