Message from Gabe Johansen:
COVID continues to change the landscape of the Oregon apartment market. Vacancy remains low but economic vacancy paints a darker picture with a high rate of delinquency in 2021. Landlords are grappling with new laws and the eviction moratorium lingers in various forms. Rents on turnover have increased at an incredible rate in Q2 as a result of almost no vacancy. While there is $300MM in government rental assistance in the pipeline, those funds may not arrive for some time. Take this opportunity to invest in your turnovers. Contact SMI as your resource in real estate brokerage, lending, and property management. Thank you.
