Occupancies and rents have recovered to pre-recession levels thanks to a low level of new apartment construction, new household formation (despite weak job growth) and the uncertain single-family market.<\/p>\n<p>Improvement in credit metrics that would be as meaningful as those of recent years will be more difficult to achieve. Accommodative capital and transaction markets have enabled the companies to improve their balance sheets by lowering leverage with the proceeds of new equity issues and non-core asset dispositions. In reducing leverage, the bias has been to cut mortgage debt first (usually of the Fannie and Freddie variety), which is highlighted in figure 2. Two reasons are the increased flexibility of an unencumbered balance sheet and the uncertain future of the agencies, which was highlighted by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhfa.gov\/webfiles\/25025\/Scorecard2013.pdf\">FHFA\u2019s 2013 goals<\/a> seeking to contract their presence in the marketplace. As well, improving cash flow and low interest rates are driving improving debt and fixed charge coverage.<\/p>\n<p>After a reprieve in the second half cap rates continued their descent and broke 5 percent for their observation at year end 2012, according to the American Council of Life Insurers. Rising interest rates will create upward pressure on cap rates; this will be counterbalanced to some degree, however, with improvement in the economy and employment, as the latter drives household formation and demand for apartment rentals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1004069844\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/m-f-reits-set-to-cool-after-two-hot-years\/multifamily-reits-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2130,1153\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;wimmerc&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Multifamily REITs\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?w=1024\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1004069844\" title=\"Multifamily REITs\" src=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg 2130w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=300,162 300w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=768,416 768w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=1024,554 1024w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=1536,831 1536w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=2048,1109 2048w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=150,81 150w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=696,377 696w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=1068,580 1068w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=1920,1039 1920w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2013\/04\/Multifamily-REITs2.jpg?resize=776,420 776w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>New multi-family construction is picking up pace in many markets across the nation, and the REITs have been active for over a year.
