Our team attended and was a proud sponsor of the 𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐃𝐒 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 at the L'Auberge Baton Rouge hosted by CID of Greater Baton Rouge Association of REALTORS.

The conference brought together a strong group of attendees and featured speakers who covered current real estate trends across the Greater Baton Rouge area. Thank you to 𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐠 𝐃𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭, 𝐌𝐀𝐈, 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐒𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚, 𝐉𝐢𝐦 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧, 𝐂𝐂𝐈𝐌, 𝐄𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐠𝐬, 𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐑, 𝐂𝐂𝐈𝐌, 𝐓𝐨𝐦 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤, 𝐌𝐀𝐈, 𝐁𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐑, 𝐂𝐂𝐈𝐌 and 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐝𝐰𝐢𝐜𝐤 for sharing valuable data, insights, and market analysis.

𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲: The Baton Rouge market is not declining, but stabilizing after several volatile years.

Across multiple sectors, we are seeing a shift toward more sustainable, long-term trends:
• Multifamily rent growth has leveled off
• Office demand is concentrating in higher-quality spaces
• Industrial users are taking longer to make decisions amid broader economic uncertainty

At the same time, declining residential permits point to ongoing supply constraints, which could limit future growth and availability in the housing market. While challenges remain, particularly around financing and rising costs, the overall outlook suggests a market that is adjusting to a new normal, rather than experiencing a downturn.

Special thanks to Jill Sylvest for another great year!

We were happy to sponsor and attend this year’s 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐃𝐫. 𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐌𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐄𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐎𝐮𝐭𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 & 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭.

Hosted by the UNO Institute for Economic Development & Real Estate Research, this annual forum provided valuable insight into the economic outlook and real estate trends shaping the Northshore region.

The discussion sparked strong conversations and even stronger insights on the region.

🔹 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞
The biggest issue is not just a housing shortage, but a mismatch between what buyers need and what they can afford, especially with limited “missing middle” housing options.

🔹 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞
Population growth remains strong, but office demand continues to adjust as remote and hybrid work reshape space needs.

🔹 𝐄𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭
Parishes are shifting from competition to collaboration, recognizing that regional growth benefits everyone.

🔹 𝐊𝐞𝐲𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 – 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐇𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐭
Louisiana has secured $94 billion in projects, signaling strong long-term economic momentum and job creation.

🔹 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 & 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞
Insurance costs remain one of the biggest barriers for buyers, often impacting affordability more than interest rates.

The common theme across all discussions: Growth is here, but now it’s about aligning housing, infrastructure, and affordability to keep it sustainable.

Want to talk through what these trends mean for your next move? 𝐆𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐮𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥. We’re always happy to discuss growth and trends in real estate.
