Current Trends in Home Values and Trivia Challenge

It's the valuation edition, featuring Cushman & Wakefield's head of valuation and advisory for the living sector, Zach Bowyer. Jay and Zach discuss where asset values are today (for apartments and SFR) compared to the peak, and how much interest rates play a role in the decline relative to the rent and NOI slowdown. Jay asks Zach to opine on how he thinks about values, what most of us laypeople get wrong about valuation, and his thoughts on where values go from here. Additionally, in the "Here's a Chart" segment, Jay breaks down why the latest Census data on multifamily starts appears highly suspect, as well as the big story on CPI inflation not getting enough attention right now. Jay also reviews the latest headlines impacting multifamily and SFR, including news about the potential launch of a new apartment REIT.
