Florida Apartment Market Outlook 2025

Rental housing economist Jay Parsons shares the latest on U.S. apartment market conditions — including a surprisingly massive volume of demand hitting the market in 2024. How did demand match up to the 50-year high in apartment supply delivered in 2024? Jay also unveils which markets saw the biggest gaps — positive and negative — for demand relative to supply, as well as the latest data on occupancy, rents, apartment sales and more. Jay also brings in his old boss, IPA's Director of Research Greg Willett, for a conversation on the state of the U.S. apartment market and outlook for 2025. What markets are outperforming expectations and well positioned going forward? When will apartment sales finally pick back up? And what impact does the stalled-out homebuyer market have on apartments? Additionally, Jay brings back recurring segments of the podcast, including "Rental Housing Trivia" and "In the News."
