Employment: More than 104,000 workers will find gainful employment this year, a 2.4 percent growth rate. In the previous year, 97,900 jobs were created, a 2.3 percent rise.
Construction: The pace of deliveries will moderate somewhat as more than 8,600 units come
to market this year. In 2014, nearly 10,000 rentals were placed into service.
Vacancy: Growing supply will limit net absorption in apartments this year, ushering in a
50-basis-point increase in vacancy to 3.5 percent by year end. Although the market will
weaken this year, the average vacancy rate will remain incredibly tight.
Rents: The average effective rent will move up 4.8 percent to $1,870 per month this year. Last
year, the average effective rent climbed 6.4 percent.

Outlook: The impending rate hike hinted by the Federal Reserve will encour-
age market participants to evaluate their holdings in the first rising rate cycle
in more than a decade. This will prompt owners to list additional properties,
while investors will use historically low interest rates to bid aggressively on
available assets, fostering robust transaction velocity.

in the eurozone, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury is trading near 2.25
percent. Economic data is showing improvement following weak first quarter
GDP, with market participants now positioning for the December meeting as
the most likely starting point for an interest rate hike. The latest comments
from Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen, however, indicate that the
exact moment is still data-dependent.
for longer as it assuages fears that the first interest rate increase will disrupt
the recovery. The first policy rate change is expected to be just 25 basis points,
and measures will remain accommodative for some time.
4.3 and 4.7 percent with average LTVs from 55 to 75 percent. Portfolio lenders are offering similar loan-to-value ratios with interest rates between 3.85
and 4.50 percent as underwriters have become more competitive in an effort
to do business. Floating bridge loans for stabilized assets will require LTVs
of 70 percent and price with a spread between 250 and 425 basis points over
LIBOR, while value-add transactions will be underwritten at 80 percent LTV
(60 to 65 percent of cost) with a 300- to 475-basis-point spread.
Total CMBS issuance is expected to top 2014 levels this year as $100 billion to
$125 billion is underwritten. A wave of pre-crisis loans will start to come due
over the next few years, prompting refinancing as current owners renegotiate
the capital structure of their assets. Through April, $35.8 billion in CMBS
had been originated, underscoring the availability of credit as credit unions,
insurance companies and alternative asset managers expanded their offerings.
