For years, Texas dominated conversations about where manufacturers and data center operators should expand. But New Mexico has been climbing site selectors’ shortlists, where a combination of pro-business policy, available power, water access, and aggressive state incentives is pulling deals away from more established industrial markets. David Ebrahimzadeh, Founder & President of Corniche Capital, has ...
Most small commercial tenants in Baltimore sign their leases before ever speaking to a contractor. By the time they learn what their buildout will actually cost, the terms are already locked in. According to Evan Roberts, Managing Partner at Clipper Construction, a five-year-old commercial general contractor based in Baltimore’s Locust Point neighborhood, this sequencing problem ...
The Coachella Valley real estate market is no longer in the post-pandemic phase where nearly anything listed found a buyer. Inventory has risen from its historic lows, buyers have regained negotiating leverage, and sellers pricing based on what they spent rather than what the market supports are watching their listings sit. For the gated golf ...
Houston’s reputation as an affordable alternative to coastal metros has drawn steady relocation traffic for years. But buyers treating the region as a single market, scanning listings across zip codes as though pricing logic transfers cleanly from one neighborhood to the next, are making decisions without the granularity the city demands. The same house on ...
Every year in the United States, roughly 700,000 commercial construction projects come out of the ground, representing $1.6 trillion in domestic activity. Behind each project sits a bidding process that, despite the scale of capital involved, still operates largely through emails, spreadsheets, and phone calls. General contractors blast invitations to bid to tens of thousands ...
Large hotel chains spent much of 2025 announcing AI initiatives. Independent hotels spent it testing them, and the independents are pulling ahead, according to Steve Carran, Co-Host & Head Writer at The Modern Hotelier, a podcast and media company covering hotel operations and technology. The gap isn’t about budget or engineering talent. It’s about approval ...
Home inspections exist to identify safety hazards, structural concerns, and mechanical failures that a buyer can’t detect without training. Across many markets, that purpose is being redefined, not by regulation or shifting housing conditions, but by short-form video content, often produced by inspectors themselves. The pattern shows up clearly in the Twin Cities, where Reuben ...
The roughly 500 MLS systems across North America hold something no competitor can easily replicate: a comprehensive, professionally verified database of properties for sale and rent, updated by the agents who listed them. That cooperative structure has been around for decades. What’s changing is who wants access to that data, and how. Large language models, ...
The land investment space has long been dominated by two extremes: speculative holds on raw acreage and full-scale horizontal development with entitlements, infrastructure, and vertical construction. Between those poles sits a less visible model, buying large rural tracts, subdividing them under existing by-right zoning provisions, and selling smaller parcels to retail buyers who want to ...
Inventory in central Los Angeles keeps growing, but the buyer pool is not growing with it. In neighborhoods like Koreatown, downtown LA, and surrounding submarkets, properties sit longer, open houses draw fewer visitors, and verbal offers come in well below asking – only to evaporate before negotiations begin, according to David Shin, a Realtor with ...
Multifamily real estate has experienced a correction that, by most historical standards, should be attracting capital. Prices are down 20 to 25 percent from their peaks, according to Neal Bawa, CEO and Founder of Grocapitus Investments. Rents, while flat, haven’t fallen. Yet investor appetite remains subdued, a pattern that says more about behavioral cycles than ...
The oversupply problem in parts of the greater Palm Springs area didn’t start with a housing crash or a demand collapse. It started with Airbnb investors who bid up prices during the pandemic and are now selling at losses, creating inventory pressure that spreads well beyond the short-term rental segment itself. The Coachella Valley sits ...
The Coachella Valley has long attracted second-home buyers seeking winter sun two hours from Los Angeles. But the market entering mid-2026 is sorting itself along a line that has little to do with location or architecture: condition. Buyers across price tiers are refusing to take on work, and the gap between move-in-ready homes and everything ...
Most real estate developers assess property value in terms of ground-level access, street frontage, transit proximity, and walkability. But a growing number of established developers and landowners are evaluating their properties from a different direction: the sky above them. As electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft move closer to commercial deployment, whether a rooftop ...
For years, construction 3D printing has occupied a narrow lane: single-story demonstration homes, small community projects, and the occasional two-story residence. The technology has generated attention disproportionate to its actual output. That is starting to shift. Companies in the space are now targeting multi-story and high-rise construction, the building type that accounts for the majority ...
