You know I'm always looking for insights that could give us an edge in the real estate market. Well, I stumbled upon something today that I think you'll find as exciting as I do.
While scrolling through LinkedIn, I saw a post about rent growth forecasts that got me thinking. Sure, everyone's talking about what's happening now and what might happen in 2025, but I believe the real opportunity lies in 2026. Let me break it down for you:
Positive Vibes for 2025: RealPage, Inc. is predicting rent growth across the country next year. For instance, they're expecting increases of 1.7% in Austin and 1.8% in San Antonio over the next 12 months. Not bad, right?
Supply and Demand Sweet Spot: It looks like demand might outpace supply, potentially pushing occupancy rates back up to where they were about five years ago. That's music to our ears!
The "Supply Cliff" (I love this term!): Get this - they're forecasting a whopping 20% decrease in supply nationally in 2025. You know what that means for property values and rents, don't you?

Now, here's where it gets really interesting. While everyone else is focused on just getting through to 2025, I'm looking at 2026 as our year to shine. Think about it - if we position ourselves right now, we could be riding this wave when it hits its peak.
That's why I'm so excited about the new construction projects we're launching. By delivering units in 2026, we're setting ourselves up to capitalize on what could be a fantastic market.
I know it might seem like looking too far ahead, but remember when we [mention a past successful long-term strategy or investment]? This feels like one of those moments.
What do you think? Are you as pumped about 2026 as I am? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this. Maybe we can grab coffee next week and brainstorm some ideas on how to make the most of this opportunity.
Let's not just survive until 2025 - let's gear up to crush it in 2026!
Looking forward to your thoughts.

Good point—real estate is definitely a long game. Even so, every business has its daily challenges. In real estate, I think managing time and staying available for leads 24/7 is one of the biggest struggles. What do you see as the main challenges in your day-to-day operations?
