Trends in Resident Turnover and Market Behavior

Rental housing economist Jay Parsons breaks down the latest and freshest data on the U.S. apartment market — including supply (on the decline), demand (on the rise) and rents (ticking back upward). What's driving the improvement and how is the outlook changing given recent noise around the economy? Cortland's EVP and Head of Research, Lee Everett, joins the podcast to share his perspective on the market — and why apartments may be well positioned for the road ahead relative to alternatives. Jay and Lee also share expectations for rent growth in 2025 and 2026 as supply drops off. When will rent growth return to positive territory in the high-supplied Sun Belt and Mountain markets? Additionally, as always, Jays breaks down the latest headlines impacting rental housing with "In the News" and tees up another round of "Rental Housing Trivia."
