Confirmed: Starbucks knows the next hot neighborhood before everybody else does

Starbucks equals big bucks
Although some may scoff that the predictive value of a given retail chain doesn’t mean much, locations near Starbucks are, indisputably, highly lucrative.
True, properties near Starbucks locations tend to start out more expensive. But as you can see, these properties appreciate at a faster rate than US housing on the whole. Interestingly, they’re also recovering much more quickly from the housing bust.
What does that look like in practice? Let’s look at the historical home value appreciation of areas that now are located within a quarter mile of a Starbucks. A home that is now near a Starbucks would have sold, on average, for $137,000. A home that is not near a Starbucks would have sold, on average, for $102,000.
Fast-forward 17 years to 2014. That average American home has now appreciated 65%, to $168,000. But the Starbucks-adjacent property has far outpaced that, appreciating 96% to $269,000.

The next time you see a Starbucks, snap up a rental property near it. It will pay off in the long run.

I disagree. Starbucks is just an example of general middle plus class development. I'm sure the same can be said of panera bread, etc.
So the report basically says that the more development around a given property, the greater the increase in value.

Meh, smaller and cooler coffee shops will be in a soon to be gentrified neighborhood before SB.
And yes we know, you all would rather you has station coffee over $7 Starbucks coffee.
Just trying to beat out the usual response

Whole foods has a bigger impact on home prices.
HEB in Houston is a smaller but positive impact.

It's good neighborhood screening.

Come to think of it I've never seen a black person at or working at Starbucks. Do they drink coffee?

Did a Finance project on this years ago in undergrad when I first heard of this, and it has proven now to be true.

as a corollary, its also been proven local coffee shops make MORE money after starbucks open near them.
win-win.
aint capitalism grand?

So if I'm a slumlord, what I do is attempt to open up a Starbuck's franchise near my crummy rental property to increase the value?

What is ironic about that? Hipsters are associated with higher income areas

Thanks for clearing that up

This is years old news (not being a dick). SB spends a lot of R&D which has made it a good indicator of neighborhood health.

By the time the long run takes effect, Starbucks won't exist.

There's an extremely gay, black barista who works at the Starbuck's in Perkins Rowe.
