By Lee Kiser, Kiser Group Multifamily real estate investment in the Midwest in 2025 presents a compelling opportunity, driven by strong fundamentals, favorable market dynamics and emerging trends. Here’s an overview of the key trends and outlook. Strong rent growth Midwestern cities are experiencing some of the fastest rent increases in the nation. Cleveland leads with a 5.1 percent year-over-year rent growth, while other metros like Chicago, Kansas City and Detroit rank among the top 10 for rent gains, outperforming the national average. This surge is attributed to steady demand and limited new supply, allowing landlords to continue raising rents.  Much of the rent growth is due to declining construction activity. Nationally, multifamily construction is expected to decline by 11 percent in 2025, with completions projected to fall to 317,000 units. The Midwest has a significantly smaller pipeline than the national statistics, with only 3.4 percent of inventory currently under construction versus 6 percent nationally. Workforce housing stock The Midwest is recognized for its affordability, with monthly multifamily rents averaging $1,405, which is lower than the national average of $1,823 and more than 10 percent less than the Sun Belt average. Midwest transaction velocity is shifting toward Class B and …

CINCINNATI — In its first-quarter results, The Kroger Co. (NYSE: KR) unveiled plans to close approximately 60 stores over the next 18 months. The closures represent about 5 percent of the Cincinnati-based grocer’s stores, and come after Kroger’s attempt to acquire Albertsons was blocked. Kroger says it is taking a $100 million impairment charge related to the store closings and is committed to reinvesting the savings back into the customer experience. As a result, Kroger says the closures will not impact full-year guidance. The retailer will offer roles in other stores to all associates currently employed at affected stores. Total company sales were $45.1 billion in the first quarter, compared with $45.3 billion the same period last year. Excluding fuel, Kroger specialty pharmacy and adjustment items, sales increased 3.7 percent compared with the same period last year. Kroger’s first quarter ended on May 24. The grocer maintains roughly 1,200 stores across 16 states. The company’s stock price opened at $72 per share Monday, June 23, up from $50.02 per share one year ago.
