Housing affordability, in all segments but especially multifamily, is an increasing challenge and a priority on the federal, state and local levels.

The dire need for housing that low- and middle-income households can afford has created broad-based support for expanding the supply and preserving the existing stock of affordable housing. Progress has been made, but the need is still greater. Participants in the affordable housing ecosystem are straining to rise to the occasion, but the difficulties are significant.

This webinar is designed specifically for multifamily developers, owners, lenders, investors and managers of affordable housing (across all ownership types, for-profit and nonprofit) as well as interested public policy entities such as state housing finance agencies.

What’s the path forward? That’s what we’ll cover in an in-depth hour discussion featuring Jeff Adler, vice president, and Paul Fiorilla, associate director.

Multifamily fundamentals in Q1 2025 and entering Q2 have been holding up well, with demand absorbing new supply amid modest rent growth.

Administration actions across a wide range of issues have “thrown the deck of cards up in the air”; trade/tariffs/de-globalization, government employment and spending, government spending on universities, immigration, as well as emerging actions on taxes, deregulation, energy and housing.

Join industry experts Jeff Adler and Paul Fiorilla as they offer strategic insights on the current state of the multifamily market.

Single-Family Rentals in Build-to-Rent Communities - May 2025

The student housing sector is coming off arguably its best two years ever in 2023 and 2024, when preleasing and rent growth reached unprecedented levels. However, early preleasing data for the 2025-2026 school year is showing mixed results, and rent growth has been slowing for the past 16 months. These trends are affecting markets differently, but significant tailwinds, including accelerating enrollment growth and a muted new supply pipeline, should help stabilize the market over the next few years.

Join Yardi Matrix for an in-depth analysis of the early data from the 2025-2026 leasing season. You’ll get a detailed view of the future of the sector, along with a market-by-market breakdown of trends for the Yardi 200 schools.

After years of record-breaking growth, the self storage market faced significant challenges in 2023 and 2024. Rising interest rates led to reduced demand, occupancy, rents and property values. Meanwhile, an influx of new supply added pressure, especially in the markets that saw the highest growth during the pandemic. Despite these challenges, self storage continues to attract strong investor interest, and Yardi Matrix data indicates that market fundamentals may be stabilizing, particularly at the local level.

Join Yardi Matrix experts as they delve into these trends in the industry and look forward to the rest of 2025 and beyond.
