2025 isn't one real estate market, it's two very different stories playing out at once.On one side:Industrial assets - logistics, warehousing, manufacturing - continue to perform with minimal distress.Strong demand, stable leases, and long-term tenants are keeping these properties resilient.On the other:Office, select multifamily, and portions of retail are feeling the squeeze.These sectors carry the highest share of delinquent or specially servi ...
In another attempt to make homebuying more affordable, President Donald Trump floated the idea of a 50-year mortgage in a social media post. In response, Federal Housing Finance Agency director Bill Pulte, who oversees Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, posted that they are “working on it,” and that it would be, “a complete game-changer.”

HELP! I’m a new property manager (first official job as a property manager) been in the industry for 11 years, but I’ve never had to actually manage the maintenance team. I’m only down to one maintenance person right now who is kind of like the maintenance manager, but he doesn’t seem to be completing work orders as quickly as he needs to. I’ve sat him down and create a schedule and he’s still not completing them and the time that he needs to I... Show more
Is he taking too long to do the actual work once he gets to the unit, or taking too long to even start the job?
Only 2.8% of homes changed hands in 2025 - the lowest turnover in three decades.
Supply isn’t scarce by accident. It’s trapped by math.
Over 70% of owners hold mortgages below 5%, unwilling to enter a 6% world.
- Buyers can’t afford to chase.
- Sellers can’t afford to move.

The difference between a financially sound structure and a suboptimal one is purely about timing, data, and finding the right niche capital source.Don't ...

This is where brand research becomes the foundation of emotional storytelling, relatable brand identity, and a genuine sense of belonging.By developing a customer persona—what we call the Ideal Resident Profile (IRP)—as the building block of a brand, communities ...

I would like to share what I have done during Christmas in the past. We adopt a nursing home, maybe one of the lesser high end ones. Then we ask residents for donations and of course we donate as well. We work out a date to deliver, dressed accordingly lol, even the resident come along.
I can tell you it’s one of the most rewarding things I have ever done. Several times we were the only visitors all year for some. Ask the directors for gift...

I manage operations for a family owned management company. In the past, we have handled our collections of past due accounts from former residents. However, I have several accounts that owe $2500+ that we have tried to negotiate a payment plan to collect and they hit a dead end .
