Rental Demand Could “Catch Up” in These Oversupplied, Struggling Markets
On The Market
Chapters
Shownotes Transcript
America is experiencing a strange housing supply problem. On one hand, we don’t have enough housing supply nationally; on the other, we have too much housing supply in cities like Austin and Fort Myers, and as a result, these cities are seeing significant rent declines). Meanwhile, rents are still going strong in much of the Midwest, as their supply-constrained markets give landlords and real estate investors the upper hand. But, even in the “oversupplied” markets, is there a chance for rent price redemption in the future?
We brought on BiggerPockets’ own Market Intelligence Analyst, Austin Wolff), to share his latest findings on housing supply. Austin talks about** why rents are growing in some parts of the US** but declining in more oversupplied markets. But with the slowing down of construction, **will **these oversupplied markets become undersupplied? Will landlords in these markets be happy they held onto their properties in a few years?
Austin also shares **the exact market he’s making his **first real estate investment), which boasts high demand but has yet to see a significant supply bump for his asset class. Does higher supply always mean lower rents? Not quite, and we’ll get into why in this episode!
