Rental housing economist Jay Parsons shares his top 5 takeaways from the single-family rental REITs' earnings calls — highlights from AMH and Invitation Homes. Jay shares the SFR REITs' take on the current state of the market, and whether they are seeing any signs of a slowdown in leasing. Another big topic: REIT stock prices versus net asset values, and what that widening gap means for the REITs. Jay also discusses the latest data combatting a major myth: The REITs aren't buying much off the MLS; in fact, they're selling a lot more than they're buying, while they continue to invest in new construction of build-to-rent single-family homes. Additionally, for this week's interview, Jay welcomes in the CEO of the nation's largest SFR owner, Dave Feldman of Progress Residential. Dave and Jay discuss myth-busting of SFR myths, the current state of the SFR market, and potential growth channels for Progress Residential. Also in this week's podcast, Jay shares his take on a topic he's asked about a lot — New York City's mayoral election and what it means for apartments — during the "In the News" segment, while also touching on other headlines.
