After two years of stalled transactions, multifamily investors are back on the hunt for deals in 2025. A new Berkadia survey shows 83% of investors plan to buy, while only 2% expect to sell.
But itโs not smooth sailingโ93% of investors say underwriting deals is still difficult due to high debt costs. With $600B in multifamily debt maturing this year, some owners will have no choice but to sell. Meanwhile, the bid-ask gap is finally shrinking, making transactions more viable.
๐น Core-plus assets are the top choice, followed by value-add plays.
๐น The Southeast leads for investment, but the Midwest is gaining traction.
๐น The 10-year Treasury yield is the key to market momentumโif it stays below 4.25%, deals will flow.
With rate cuts expected to be minimal and economic uncertainty looming, 2025 will be a test of patience and timing. As one expert put it: "The light switch is onโbut will it stay steady or keep flickering?"
