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.
