Rental housing economist Jay Parsons rolls back the tape on his 10 predictions for the apartment and single-family rental market in 2025. What played out as expected, and where did he miss? It turns out there was a common theme among the two big "misses." In the second half of the program, Jay welcomes in Newmark's managing director and head of multifamily capital markets research, Mike Wolfson. Mike shares his own thoughts on how 2025 played out versus expectations, then Jay and Mike discuss the capital markets environment going into 2026. What's driving the return of debt capital back into apartments, and what impact has that had on transactions? Deal flow increased moderately in 2025, but what would it take to get further acceleration in 2026? And where's all that distress we've been hearing is constantly on the horizon? Also, as always, Jay brings back recurring segments like "Rental Housing Trivia" and "In the News," where he shares a surprisingly insightful story from The Wall Street Journal, as well as another headline about the winddown of an apartment REIT that once ranked as the nation's largest apartment owner.
