The first quarter of 2025 marked a strong rebound in multifamily leasing, with nearly 130,000 units absorbed—the best Q1 since the pandemic. A steep drop in new deliveries is reshaping the landscape, with total completions projected to fall by 40% year-over-year. Markets like Dallas, Phoenix, and Atlanta are seeing pipeline slowdowns, offering a window for existing supply to stabilize. Meanwhile, rent growth and occupancy remain solid, particularly in Midwest markets where development has been more measured.
