Unemployment and layoffs were rife, rent moratoriums were put in place to safeguard against mass evictions, and multifamily investment and new builds took a nosedive. However, as the country has started to emerge from the throes of COVID-19, the marketplace has entered a banner period of growth with forecasts indicating that the number of apartments nationwide will grow by an additional 4.5 million by 2030. This period of unprecedented growth shows no signs of slowing, either. According to Richardson, Texas-based RealPage, a provider of data analytics and property management software, during the first quarter of 2022 there was a total of 18.59 million apartment units in the U.S., a nearly 75,000 unit increase from the fourth quarter of 2021.
