RK#457 Why So Many Apartments Will Hit the Market in...

MULTIFAMILY AP360 ·

2026/10/03

Send us Fan MailThis episode explains why many apartment owners are selling ahead of 2026: low-rate loans from 2021–2022 are maturing, refinancing is far more expensive after Fed hikes, and rent growth in many markets hasn’t kept up, leaving property values down from peak levels. As a result, new loans often won’t cover old balances, forcing owners to either inject significant equity or sell. The biggest sellers are owners with 2021–2022 floating-rate/bridge deals, projects that never fully

2026/10/01

Send us Fan MailThis episode explains why chasing the highest cap rate can lead multifamily investors into bad deals, since a higher cap rate doesn’t automatically mean better value. Using two $10M apartment examples, it shows how a seemingly superior cap rate can be driven by inflated or unrealistic NOI projections, understated expenses, or post-sale increases in taxes and insurance. It also highlights that higher cap rates often signal higher risk—such as weaker locations, higher vacancy, deferred

It cites CBRE data on 2026 completions and slowing deliveries, and the National Apartment Association’s view that stabilized Class B often holds stronger occupancy and steadier rent performance in high-supply markets.

They verify and normalize NOI from actual collections, vacancies, concessions, expenses, taxes, insurance, repairs, and management fees, noting that small NOI changes can shift value significantly at a given cap rate.

Send us Fan MailOn Multifamily AP360, Neal Bawa says his view has shifted: supply and interest rates now drive multifamily profits more than demographics, and inaccurate third‑party permit tracking in 2022–2023 missed about 30% extra supply that contributed to widespread negative rent growth across major growth markets.
