Market Intelligence: U.S. Spring Apartment Update

Now Available On Demand

Join multifamily market experts Jay Parsons and Carl Whitaker for an interactive, educational update on U.S. apartment market fundamentals.

The typical winter slowdown was absent from first quarter 2022 statistics as the nation's apartment market remains red-hot. Occupancy rates continue holding at all-time-high levels. While new lease rent growth is easing in many markets, the pace of growth is still well above the pre-pandemic mark.

Perhaps more noteworthy is the continued acceleration of renewal rent growth as the nation's loss-to-lease gap tightens. Although current expectations are that summer 2022 performance will have a difficult time matching 2021's record-setting pace, all signs point to another excellent peak leasing season in 2022.

Increasing investment activity has followed exceptional revenue growth within the apartment sector. Shifts in urban/suburban performance, amplified Sun Belt interest and crucial topics like affordability, demand headwinds/tailwinds and legislative updates (plus much more) will be covered in this hour-long industry overview.
