    Apartment Shortage in the Making?

    As the wave of apartment supply slows, there may not be much building activity to follow, based on current permits and starts data. Low interest rates and other incentives could induce builders to begin more apartment projects, but the lengthy timeframe till completion could mean that, even though we're still well within a historic wave of apartment supply, there could be an apartment shortage in the making.

    Multifamily Set to Take Off in 2025

    After 2+ years of apartment supply dominating the multifamily market, surging demand and the receding wave of newly-built apartments will bring greater balance to the market in 2025. With fundamentals so strong, multifamily investment interest should also increase in the coming year, but recent reporting has found that investment activity remains below historical averages. Stubbornly-high ten-year treasury yields represent a persistent financing challenge, but the lending environment could improve as the Federal Reserve continues along its path of lower interest rates.

    Extend and Pretend Meets Grim Reality

    For lenders that are taking the "extend-and-pretend" approach, placing less emphasis on valuation declines, and waiting for lower rates, the risks have not abated, and the New York Fed has taken notice in a new report.
