Vacation Rentals Market Research
Illustrating TKI's
expertise and reach, TKI produced
the first-ever study of vacation rentals in Hawai`i.
TKI
prepared a series of landmark studies
addressing three questions:
- How many are there?
- Where are they?
- What is their share of housing?
What do we Know?
Prepared by TKI for
policy-makers, these
20-page
reports detail the trends and distribution of vacation rentals around
the islands of Kaua`i, Maui and O`ahu.
TKI's
research provides evidence of
significant differentiation in visitor preferences as well as the
housing and economic impacts of this lodging segment.
