Single-Family Rents Rise as Mortgage Rates Worsen and Builders Lean Toward Multifamily

from Real Estate Jerky Daily · host Ed Parcaut

In this episode of Real Estate Jerky Daily, Ed Parcaut and Mike Kelly break down a rougher day for mortgage pricing as peace talks fade and market nerves rise again. They cover stronger housing permits, weaker housing starts, rising single-family rents, and why builders are still leaning toward multifamily as affordability pressure keeps more households in the rental lane. The episode also touches on lower initial jobless claims, inflation worries, and why rates may stay elevated longer than many buyers hoped.
