That downtown apartment glut? Never mind

Class B and Class C Apartments Poised for Gains

2018 Marcus and Millichap North American Multifamily Forecast

Apartment investments will maintain a positive outlook in 2018 as the combination of steady job creation, healthy demographics and an accelerating pace of household formation sustains renter demand.

The effects of the additions tend to be concentrated, and the deliveries will wane in the coming year, supporting sound performance metrics in
most markets. Class B and C workforce housing will continue to outperform as vacancies in these properties remain at historical lows, enabling owners to justify strong rent growth.
