Even with interest rates high, more shovels went in the ground for SFR projects, increasing build-to-rent (BTR) construction’s market share to a new peak. In the third quarter, SFR’s robust rent collections and retreating cap rates also demonstrated the sector’s continued resiliency amid economic dislocation.

These acts of terrorism violate our most fundamental values of democracy and humanity. We stand with all those impacted by these heinous acts and share in your grief and outrage. We pray that peace and security will be restored and that we will emerge from this painful time with renewed strength and resolve.
