As uncertainty ripples through housing markets across the country, one Midwestern metro continues to draw buyers, investors, and corporate relocations with quiet consistency. Columbus, Ohio, and its surrounding communities have built a reputation for stability that stands apart from the volatility seen in coastal and Sun Belt markets. With national transaction volumes declining and interest ...

The narrative around South Florida real estate has long centered on Miami’s waterfront towers and celebrity-studded islands. But buyers seeking space, privacy, and value are increasingly looking to western Broward County, and developers are following them there. With 361 residential sales above $10 million recorded across South Florida in 2025, the second-highest annual total on ...

Charlotte’s short-term rental market has become noticeably more competitive over the past few years. What was once a relatively open field for casual investors now demands operational discipline, smart pricing, and differentiated properties, qualities that increasingly separate operators who thrive from those who quietly exit. Few people have watched this more closely than Teri Trifiletti, ...

Las Vegas carries a powerful association with hospitality and short-term stays. That reputation draws a steady stream of real estate investors who assume the city’s culture translates into a permissive environment for Airbnb-style rentals. According to Ilona Fedorko, a realtor with Scofield Group LLC, that assumption is wrong — and acting on it without due ...

Corporate return-to-office mandates and the practical economics of rent constraints are quietly building a case for secondary office stock that the market has largely dismissed since the pandemic. For much of the past five years, the consensus on office real estate, particularly B and C class buildings, has been straightforward: oversupplied, structurally impaired, and unlikely ...

Debt funds in multifamily lending have multiplied in recent years, expanding the availability of capital on paper. But their highly specific underwriting requirements regarding property age, deal size, and business plan stage are creating a fragmented market in which matching the right borrower to the right lender has become a specialized skill. On the surface, ...

Hurricane Sandy’s rebuild cycle didn’t just repair a coastal market — it replaced it with a fundamentally different one, and the effects on pricing, inventory, and investment opportunity are still unfolding more than a decade later. When Hurricane Sandy struck the New Jersey Shore in 2012, it left behind a landscape of damaged and destroyed ...

After years of clear seller’s and buyer’s markets, Charlotte’s residential real estate market has become harder to read. Some homes sell within hours. Others sit for months. The difference often comes down to the individual property rather than broader market conditions. This marks a departure from the predictable patterns that defined the market through the ...

Westchester County, New York, has consistently outperformed comparable suburban markets through multiple economic downturns, from the 1988 stock market correction to the 2008 financial crisis. Its position just north of New York City, combined with access to strong public schools and relatively short commute times, has made it a reliable destination for families relocating from ...

The Minneapolis-Saint Paul housing market is telling a different story from the rest of the country. While affordability concerns and economic uncertainty dominate national headlines, the Twin Cities have maintained a degree of balance that many comparable metros have lost. The region’s geographic compactness, wide range of price points, and relatively stable inventory have helped ...

There’s a reason real estate investors keep running into the same problem in Rockland County, New York: there’s almost nothing left to buy at a bargain. The county is small, nearly fully developed, and packed with buyers who want to live there, not flip it. That dynamic has created one of the most persistently competitive ...
