2021 Multifamily Housing Market Outlook Shaped by Growth Trends, Housing Prices

by Sarah Daniels

COVID Disrupts Markets Again The country began breathing a sigh of relief in the second quarter of 2021 as U.S. GDP returned to pre-pandemic levels. With a substantial part of the U.S. population vaccinated, the unemployment rate plummeted, schools began preparing for in-person instruction and restaurants were back in business, again surpassing grocery sales in volume. But just as things seemed to be returning to “normal,” the delta variant of COVID began to spread. New COVID cases turned into rising COVID deaths by August,[1] disrupting supply and demand chains. Consumer confidence, which had been rising since hitting a low in April 2020, dipped to a new low point in August; consumer spending stalled[2], and fewer people traveled by plane[3] or returned to the office[4] that month. While economic growth remains positive, the delta variant, now accounting for almost all new COVID cases[5], again introduced market uncertainty, resulting in a 4 percent drop in stock market pricing in September. However, as COVID cases began declining in mid-September, stock prices began to rise, erasing the September drop in October, and resulting in a 22.6 percent gain for the year. Overall, economists maintain strong economic growth expectations of 6.1 percent GDP growth for …

Just Like the Rest of the Country, Atlanta is Also Shattering Industrial Records

by John Nelson

The Atlanta industrial market has been hot and setting records for quite some time now, and the third-quarter numbers for 2021 show that this trend is continuing as we are once again setting all-time record highs for activity, positive net absorption and new construction. Activity for the Atlanta industrial market for the third quarter alone was over 24.6 million square feet, which beat the previous record for a single quarter by over 4.1 million square feet. Adding the third-quarter numbers for activity to the previous three quarters, Atlanta has posted a new record high for a four-quarter period with over 82.2 million square feet of activity. This breaks the previous four-quarter record for activity by over 6.4 million square feet. It would certainly be logical to conclude that the net absorption numbers would be robust and positive as well for the same time periods, and you would be right. Atlanta set another record for positive net absorption with over 12.1 million square feet, which was over 2.8 million square feet higher than the previous record. When you add the third quarter numbers to the previous three quarters, you will see again a new record high for a four-quarter period with …
