The multifamily market is looking good this year as rental demand grows. Fannie Mae’s 2019 Multifamily Market Outlook shows the number of units coming online this year will peak at 453,000. That’s much higher than the previous two years. It says positive job growth is one of the factors driving up demand, but investors need to keep an eye on individual markets.
