Show Notes

Multifamily construction is slowing after the pandemic building boom—and it could shift the rental market back in landlords’ favor. In this episode, we break down Redfin’s latest analysis showing a 23% drop in permits nationwide, the metros still leading in new apartment construction, and the regions seeing the steepest declines. From Sun Belt hotspots like North Port and Austin to West Coast slowdowns in Stockton and San Jose, we’ll explore what’s driving the shift, how it’s impacting rents, and where investors should be watching next.
