U.S. Multifamily Market Faces Challenges Ahead

After two years of stellar growth, rents decelerated in 2023, despite demand still at strong levels thanks to a resilient economy. The 2024 Multifamily Outlook from Yardi® Matrix anticipates a year of challenges, including slowing national rent growth. National rent growth moderated to 0.4 percent year-over-year through November 2023, up from a combined 23.5 percent in 2021 and 2022. Absorption stabilized at 300,000 apartment units in 2023, compared to 600,000 in 2021 and 200,000 in 2022. Yardi Matrix expects that rent growth and occupancy will be heavily tested next year. Of the 1.2 million apartment units under construction at the start of 2024, 510,000 are expected to be delivered by the end of the year, the highest number in decades. We expect demand for multifamily to remain healthy in 2024, but headwinds that include slower job growth, increasing supply, and waning affordability in some markets will keep rent growth restrained again," state analysts, forecasting a tepid 1.5 percent rent growth nationally. The 2024 forecast calls for Midwest metros to lead rent growth and the Sunbelt and West markets to continue to experience in-migration from the coasts, both by residents and businesses. Sunbelt markets such as Austin, Nashville, Charlotte, and Orlando are already seeing stalling rent growth, and despite robust population and job growth, they boast high levels of new supply, which will further suppress rents. On the investment front, already down by 70 percent year-over-year, multifamily sales will likely remain sluggish in 2024 due to the impact of interest rates and pricing uncertainty.

Freddie Mac Outlook for 2024: Moderate Growth

Highlights of the forecast include an uptick in average rent and as much as $380 million in deal volume.

The overall long-term picture for multifamily remains positive, but Freddie Mac’s Multifamily 2024 Outlook notes that there are still some short-term headwinds to contend with in the coming year. These include high supply and pressure on rent growth in some parts of the country, like the Sun Belt and Mountain West regions. As the economy moves from an uncertain 2023 into 2024, Freddie Mac states there should be more stabilized cap rates and property values. This trend could help drive transaction volume. Freddie Mac Multifamily expects volume growth to return next year, up to the $370 billion to $380 billion range. While that is well below the post-pandemic years of 2021 and 2022, it would be similar to the 2019 volume. The outlook projects an expected gross income growth of 2.1 percent for the year ahead. While demand is expected to remain positive, it will likely be weaker than pre-pandemic rates. Rent is expected to increase by 2.5 percent, slightly below the annual average from 2000 to 2002. However, in some regions and markets where supply is higher, rents dropped in 2023. The Sun Belt and Mountain West areas had some of the nation’s highest levels of new supply at 3 percent and 4 percent, respectively, causing rents to decline 1.4 percent and 0.5 percent, respectively.

Construction and supply

The construction pipeline is expected to be robust in 2024, with just under 1 million units being built and most of them delivered in the new year. However, some timelines will extend into 2025 due to construction delays, which is likely to prolong the impact elevated supply has had on multifamily performance. Despite a busy year for deliveries, vacancy rates are expected to remain relatively stable, resulting in stabilized cap rates and property values, according to the report. The vacancy rate for 2024 is forecast at 5.7 percent, 40 basis points higher than the 2000–2022 average.

Markets with the highest supply ratio are Salt Lake City; Nashville, Tenn.; Austin, Texas; Charlotte, N.C.; and Colorado Springs, Colo. They are all expected to have a new supply ratio of 5.5 percent or higher. Markets with the lowest new supply ratio are projected to be Tulsa, Okla.; Rochester, N.Y.; Long Island, N.Y.; Syracuse, N.Y.; and New Orleans, which will have a new supply ratio of 0.4 percent or less. The outlook notes that overall market performance will feel slow, especially when compared to the pandemic boom years and even the years prior to the pandemic beginning in 2020. In general, though, slower-moving secondary or tertiary markets are generally expected to perform better in 2024.

Interest rates are unchanged but high

As the year ends, economic conditions appear to be moderating, and there may be a soft landing after all. The outlook expects job, wage, and GDP growth to slow but remain positive and inflation to continue to decrease. However, Sara Hoffmann, director of multifamily research at Freddie Mac, said in a prepared statement that there may still be a bit of a bumpy road throughout the next year, including continued higher interest rates. While it appears the Federal Reserve has finished raising interest rates this cycle, many economists expect the higher-for-longer interest rate environment to continue throughout 2024. When the Federal Open Market Committee held its final meeting of 2023 last week, the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged for the third consecutive meeting after a year of steep increases. It’s unclear when rate cuts may come. Also cause for concern for investors, the 10-year Treasury rate changes have been volatile in recent months. The report notes it moved between 3.5 percent and 4 percent for the first half of 2023, then increased and peaked at nearly 5 percent in October. The rate has been just under 4 percent so far this week. The report notes that any additional cap rate increases will put downward pressure on property values. While the rate of property value decline slowed in the second and third quarters of 2023, valuations have declined 13.3 percent since the peak in valuations in the second quarter of 2022.

Chicago's Suburban Multifamily Market: Investor Insights

Chicago's Suburban Rental Market: A Hidden Gem for Investors

The State of Suburban Rentals in the Windy City

Amid a nationwide trend of cooling rents, Chicago's suburban multifamily market stands as a testament to stability and growth. While the national median rent has seen a slight decrease, Chicago's suburbs offer a unique allure to both renters and investors.

Market Insights from Industry Experts

Danielle Hale, chief economist at Realtor.com, acknowledges a multifamily building boom in select regions, which has kept rents in check. However, the robust demand in Chicago's suburbs defies this trend because more people are choosing suburban living because of its convenience and affordability.

Chicago's Suburban Appeal

Contrary to the national narrative, rents in Chicago's suburbs have maintained their upward trajectory, appealing to a diverse demographic of renters and positioning investors for success in a market characterized by its resilience.

The Investment Advantage in Chicago's Suburbs

The unique market conditions of the Chicago suburbs, including lower unemployment rates and a consistent demand for rental properties, provide fertile ground for multifamily property investments, outshining the volatile urban rental landscapes.
