From the NMHC: From the NMHC: Apartment Market Conditions Continue to Loosen, Though Deal Flow Increased
for the Second Straight Quarter Amidst More Favorable Conditions for Debt Financing
Apartment market conditions came in mixed in the National Multifamily Housing Council’s (NMHC’s) Quarterly Survey of Apartment Market Conditions for July 2024. While the Debt Financing (63) and Sales Volume (57) indexes indicated more favorable conditions this quarter, Equity Financing (49) and Market Tightness (47) came in below the breakeven level (50).

Concessions have become commonplace in markets with elevated levels of deliveries, as survey respondents reported overall looser market conditions for the eighth consecutive quarter,” noted NMHC Economist and Senior Director of Research, Chris Bruen.

The Market Tightness Index came in at 47 this quarter – below the breakeven level of 50 – indicating looser market conditions for the eighth consecutive quarter. Half of respondents, though, thought market conditions were unchanged compared to three months ago while 27% thought markets have become looser, down from 37% in April. Twenty-two percent of respondents reported tighter markets than three months ago.
The quarterly index increased to 47 in July from 41 in April. Any reading below 50 indicates looser conditions from the previous quarter.

This index has been an excellent leading indicator for rents and vacancy rates, and this suggests higher vacancy rates and a further weakness in asking rents. This is the eighth consecutive quarter with looser conditions than the previous quarter.
