That's part of why I push the safe and steady, sustainable profit opportunities that I do. There's no way I want anyone to find themselves at the bottom like that. Nor do I ever want to find myself there again. Which is why I follow my own advice. In fact, the reason why I give the advice I do is because I've seen it work in my own life. My net worth went from a paper-figure of several million dollars ... to less than zero ... to something substantial again, this time with sustainability behind it. Henrik S ...

Core Viewpoint - Mid-America Apartment Communities (MAA) is a high-quality apartment REIT with a strong balance sheet and a history of dividend increases, but faces challenges due to oversupply in the Sunbelt market leading to declining rents and vacancies [1][2][3] Short to Medium-Term Prospects (2024-2025) - MAA's performance is closely tied to the Sunbelt market, which is experiencing high levels of new A-Class apartment supply, with new deliveries expected to be 5.5% of the current stock in 2024 compared to 2.1% in Coastal markets [5][6] - High tenant turnover and increased vacancies, particularly in Atlanta and Austin, have led to a nationwide apartment vacancy rate of 6.7%, with Austin experiencing a 5.7% year-over-year decline in rents [7][8] - Management has guided for a negative NOI growth of -1.3% in 2024, reflecting cautious expectations for the upcoming year [9][10] Long-Term Outlook (2025 and Beyond) - Post-2025, supply is expected to decline sharply as building permits have decreased significantly from their peak in 2021, indicating a slowdown in new residential developments [11][12] - Demand for rental properties is anticipated to remain strong due to wage growth outpacing rent growth and the rising unaffordability of homeownership, with the average new mortgage payment being over 50% higher than comparable rents [15][16] - Substantial rent growth of over 5% is expected to return to the Sunbelt after 2025, driven by reduced supply and sustained demand [18] Financial Projections - The consensus forecasts a 4.6% decline in FFO for 2024, followed by modest growth in 2025 and 2026, with potential for upside if conditions improve post-2025 [20] - The current implied cap rate is at 6.7%, with expectations for it to decline, potentially leading to a price upside of 27% over the next three years [21][23]

This is a question that I often get from my readers: "When exactly will REITs recover?" Adam Gault And I get why. Real estate investment trusts ("REITs") (VNQ) have now been in a 2-year-long bear market, and we are all getting a bit impatient, including myself: Data by YCharts But unfortunately, there is no easy answer here. I wish I had a crystal ball that could predict the future, but no one can time the market, and I am no exception. The market can be incredibly unpredictable over the short run, and this ...

Real estate investment trusts will benefit from lower interest rates. The past few years have been challenging for most real estate investment trusts (REITs). Higher interest rates have weighed on real estate values to increase their income yields above those of lower-risk income investments like bonds. In addition, higher rates have made it more expensive for REITs to borrow money to fund development projects and acquisitions. The income lover's dream Realty Income built a real estate business designed to ...
