According to the latest Apartment List rent report, the national multifamily vacancy rate has risen to 7.4% which is a record high dating back to 2017.

Even though the peak of the construction boom has passed, a large wave of new units is still coming online, colliding with slower renter demand.

The result? More available inventory and more competition for every lease.

Units now take 40 days on average to lease after being listed
That’s four days longer than a year ago
And more than twice as long as mid-2021, when demand was at its peak

This article misses the point that defaults are soaring. Deals will begin to pencil Q2 of this year as lenders will be forced to sell and the "pretend & extend" model ends. Forced sales are inevitable. Most major markets are already over supplied.

While tariffs are making headlines, interest rates and equity capital are also major hurdles in multifamily construction.

Foreclosures are quietly climbing again. But while the stress is rising, it's landing very differently depending on where you live.⁠
⁠
New data from ATTOM shows U.S. mortgage foreclosure filings rose 21 percent year-over-year in November, with nearly 35,700 properties posting some type of foreclosure-related filing. That's the ninth straight annual increase, even as the month-to-month count dipped 3 percent.⁠
⁠
The sharpest spike among big metros: Charlotte, with filings up 125 percent (about 1 in every 3,156 housing units). At the other end of the spectrum, Hartford, Connecticut, saw the biggest year-over-year decline in its foreclosure rate, down about 46 percent.⁠
⁠
Translation: the trend is up, but the story is local — and uneven.⁠

Some key takeaways from today’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting:

The FOMC voted 9–3 this afternoon to cut the rates rate by 25 basis points, establishing a new target range of 3.50–3.75%. The move was widely anticipated and fully priced into markets, though the 10-year Treasury remains 15–20 basis points higher than it was just a few weeks ago, as the market started to price in only one cut in the beginning part of 2026.

Dissent within the committee remained notable. Chair Miran again advocated for a 50 basis point cut, while Schmid and Austan Goolsbee voted against any cut. The Fed also authorized renewed purchases of short-term treasury securities to help maintain an “ample” level of bank reserves.
