The apartment building boom may have finally caught up with demand.
After the pandemic, developers responded to surging housing demand by building more apartments, especially across the Sun Belt. Now, multifamily may be reaching a turning point as supply and demand begin to rebalance.

In Episode 152 of The REconomy Podcast, Odeta Kushi and Xander Snyder break down what’s changing and why the story looks very different depending on where you are: https://firstam.us/4z7Wvvs

Imagine paying $10,000 for a rental, moving your family in and then hearing a knock at the door three days later.

It’s the real owner. The home was never for rent. Scammers had cloned a legitimate rental listing, making the entire thing look real.

First on Fraud hosts Sarah Frano and Matt Sager break down how convincing scams can be and why verifying who you’re dealing with matters. Watch the full episode: https://firstam.us/4xJOYTh

The Sun Belt apartment boom left a sizable supply hangover. But not every market is feeling it the same way.

The median vacancy rate across Sun Belt cities has nearly doubled, rising from 5.5% in 2021 to 10.7% in 2026, compared with an 8.1% national median. Yet the picture varies significantly across the region, with vacancy rates ranging from below 5% to nearly 19% in some markets.

First American Senior Commercial Real Estate Economist Xander Snyder examines where the apartment supply wave hit hardest, why the Southeast has seen such wide variation, and the early signs that supply and demand may be starting to rebalance.

What happens when housing supply and future buyers are in different places?

Where older homeowners live and where younger buyers are moving don’t always line up. That could shape how the housing handoff plays out across different markets.

In Episode 151 of The REconomy Podcast, Odeta Kushi and Mark Fleming break down why demographics, migration and location all matter.

Our Chief Strategy Officer Paul Hurst takes on title insurance waivers in a new op-ed in HousingWire, examining the role the title industry plays in helping protect property rights and address roughly $600 billion in annual risk exposure.

Paul explains why removing title insurance does not eliminate that risk. It shifts more of the burden to homeowners, lenders and taxpayers.
