2016 Residential Market Report: Smart Money’s on More Interactive Controls

The Annual Residential Market Report fielded online responses between Aug. 18 and Sept. 25. This has proven to be another solid business year for security dealers, albeit not forecast by Parks Associates to be as robust as 2015 or 2014.

The latter experienced much higher than standard growth as the economy began its recovery and pent-up demand was clearly demonstrated in the market. With a net of nearly 2.8 million new security system sales (after attrition and replacement calculated) in 2014, the following year experienced strong but more normal net sales of about 2 million systems.
