NYC’s proposed #rentfreeze is being framed as a blow against big landlords, but small owners may take the hardest hit. When rents are capped and costs keep rising, the result may be more distress, more deferred maintenance, and more consolidation, not more affordability. propmodo.com/mamdanis-rent-…

Only about 2.1% of Americans moved to another state in 2024 — but that small group is shaping apartment demand, retail growth, and CRE underwriting across the country. Migration is a thin stream, yet it often sets the marginal bid in fast-growth metros. Follow the movers… but watch the supply. 🏗️ propmodo.com/where-american…

Federal support for building energy programs is fading, but regulation isn’t. 50+ cities already enforce energy rules and 30 more are coming. By 2030, ~60% of U.S. commercial space could fall under building performance standards. The real challenge: a messy patchwork of metrics, timelines, and penalties. propmodo.com/the-growing-pa…

Title fraud and recording errors are quietly undermining #CRE collateral. @nardotrealtor says 63% saw fraud last year. FBI reports $174M in losses. Continuous title monitoring is becoming essential. propmodo.com/the-due-dilige…

San Francisco tried cutting fees and easing rules to spur office-to-housing conversions. Nothing worked. Now it’s offering something different: a share of future property taxes. The goal isn’t to lower costs. It’s to fix the math. propmodo.com/playbook/san-f…

The target: Homes.com, which has burned through billions to capture single-digit market share against Zillow. CEO earned $130M while the stock dropped 32%.
