Property managers are hired to oversee operations for apartment complexes and other rental sites. In recent years, the property management industry has experienced an oversupply of high-end apartments, resulting in increased competition and slower lease-up rates. This has resulted in downward pressure on rent growth and flattened or declining rents in certain regions. In the office space sector, elevated interest rates have significantly decreased new office construction. Limited new stock increases the appeal of prime buildings, giving owners a strong negotiating position and leading to rent gains for Class A buildings. Demand for apartments has remained robust, as climbing home prices and elevated mortgage rates have made home ownership unaffordable for many households. Through the end of 2025, industry revenue has climbed at a CAGR of 2.3% to $136.9 billion, including a 0.1% gain in 2025 alone.
