📉 National apartment occupancy rates, which have been on a downward trend since early 2022, may finally be showing signs of stabilization. Motivating metrics: RealPage data revealed that in April, the national average for apartment occupancy rose to 94.2%, up 10 bps MoM, a notable positive uptrend. All four U.S. regions—Northeast, Midwest, South, and West—enjoyed higher occupancy in April. The Midwest led annual rent gains with +2.7%, while the Northeast followed closely with +2.4%. 📈 Positive demand trend: The positive change in occupancy reflects a surge in apartment demand that carried forward from a record-breaking Q1, during which over 100K units were absorbed on a net basis. This suggests a return to normal seasonal demand patterns, especially during late spring and early summer months, traditionally strong periods for apartment rentals. #passiveinvesting #passiveincome #buildingwealth #multifamilyinvestor #investing #realestateinvestor #propertyinvestment #investmentopportunity #investmenttips
