Right now there is much more demand than supply, but at some point (of new units coming online) new supply will overtake demand. . The one thing not mentioned in the story that might help balance things out is a lot of older properties are being knocked down to make way for these new places. So they might toss up a new 100 unit building but what was knocked down to build it? . And while new properties tend to be higher and denser, some old properties are pretty dense for their height due to grandfathered parking requirements. We own a 43 unit building that has 23 parking spots. You couldn't do something like that today. Regarding all the new apartments.
