Brian Sanchez+FollowAre Apartments Getting Harder to Find?Quick coffee break scoop: Apartment builders are feeling a bit less confident about cranking out new places to live, especially those big high-rise towers. Rising costs and tariff talk are making it pricier to build, so don’t be surprised if rent deals are harder to find or if your favorite new building takes longer to open. The good news? Fewer folks think things are getting worse, so there’s hope for a rebound next year! #RealEstate #RentingTips #ApartmentHunting #MoneyHacks20Share
Brian Sanchez+FollowWhy Renters Are Staying Put in 2025Ever notice your neighbors aren’t moving out as much? EQR, a big apartment landlord, just hit a record low for people moving out—only 7.9%! With the economy feeling shaky, more folks are choosing to stay put instead of rolling the dice on a new place. For renters, this means fewer empty apartments and likely steady rent prices, especially in hot spots like D.C. and San Francisco. If you’re thinking of moving, expect less wiggle room on deals, but more stability if you stay. #RentingTips #RealEstate #MoneyHacks #ApartmentLife80Share
