The Dallas-Forth Worth Metroplex has led the U.S. in multifamily investment transactions for six consecutive years. However, 2021 even outperformed that feat, as the number of assets that sold and the dollar volume essentially doubled 2020 levels. There was a surge in large transactions, and pricing spiked 33 percent. In this episode of the Market Insights podcast, Bobby Weinberg and Eric Stockley of Northmarq's Dallas office share how robust job growth and population expansion are attracting new capital allocators to the market. 

On this episode, Dave Martin, Managing Director of Investment Sales, and Dave Link, Managing Director of Debt and Equity discuss the factors driving Denver's record-setting multifamily market.  Job growth, in-migration trends, and rising home prices, are just a few of the many drivers that 'went right' in 2021. Additionally, labor constraints, construction delays and materials/supplies challenges are pushing deals further out. 

San Antonio’s rebounding economic drivers, growing population, robust renter demand and impressive rent growth are making the market a top pick for multifamily investors. San Antonio’s booming target industries include the red-hot cybersecurity and information technology, life sciences and healthcare – key drivers for employment growth. Industrial and logistics, energy and banking also remain strong industries. 

The Phoenix multifamily market recorded its strongest year on record in 2021. Continued demand fueled rent growth that was as rapid as any major market in the country. Developers are moving projects through the construction pipeline to keep pace with demand growth, while investors are aggressively pursuing potential acquisitions.
