The Sun Belt apartment boom left a sizable supply hangover. But not every market is feeling it the same way.

The median vacancy rate across Sun Belt cities has nearly doubled, rising from 5.5% in 2021 to 10.7% in 2026, compared with an 8.1% national median. Yet the picture varies significantly across the region, with vacancy rates ranging from below 5% to nearly 19% in some markets.

First American Senior Commercial Real Estate Economist Xander Snyder examines where the apartment supply wave hit hardest, why the Southeast has seen such wide variation, and the early signs that supply and demand may be starting to rebalance.

Our Chief Strategy Officer Paul Hurst takes on title insurance waivers in a new op-ed in HousingWire, examining the role the title industry plays in helping protect property rights and address roughly $600 billion in annual risk exposure.

Paul explains why removing title insurance does not eliminate that risk. It shifts more of the burden to homeowners, lenders and taxpayers.

🔑 Closing Day Is Over. Could a Title Issue Still Surface?

You have the keys, the deed is recorded, and the transaction is complete. 🏡 But certain title issues may not be discovered until after you’ve purchased the property.

A previously unknown lien, forged document, or undisclosed ownership interest could create an unexpected challenge down the road. An owner’s title insurance policy may provide protection for certain covered title risks, subject to the terms of the policy. 🛡️

💡 Closing may be one day. Protecting your property rights can matter long after.
