• The Impact of Rising Interest Rates: We discuss how inflated exit cap rates and easy money are fading, emphasizing the importance of realistic underwriting in today's market.

• 2024 Market Predictions: We anticipate increased new construction deliveries in 2024, potentially leading to a temporary rent dip. However, we foresee solid rent growth and a better rate environment in 2025, paving the way for increased transaction volumes.
• The Bull Cycle Ahead: We predict the potential return of the real estate bull cycle in 2026 and 2027, driven by lower product deliveries and subsequent rent and valuation growth. We also analyze the Federal Reserve's potential influence on the market.
• Challenges for Operators: We address the struggles faced by operators with floating-rate debt, rising interest rates, and increasing operating costs. We discuss the potential for market distress and offer strategies to navigate these challenges.
• Passive Investor Advice: We provide crucial guidance for passive investors, emphasizing certainty over high returns and careful consideration of the risk-reward balance. We also share our investment thesis shift towards newer properties and long-term holds with predictable returns.
