Concessions reached 17.7% of available units, a multi-year high. On the capital markets side, Q4 sales volume surged to $579 million, the highest quarterly total since Q3 2022, with annual volume reaching $1.36 billion and average prices recovering to a 30-month high of $208,341 per unit. With 2026 deliveries projected to fall 45% to 1,508 units, the supply correction is well underway and conditions for gradual demand recovery are taking shape.
