I love their romance feels realistic for their age as well. Although I would love to have a blurb of them doing LDR when he’s in the NHL and she’s in Paris. Alternatively a day of them spending in an Paris

So I haven’t actually decided if Dallas will live in Paris or if she turns down the offer. For the sake of this request, we’ll say she’s in Paris for a little bit during Nick’s first year in the NHL

warnings: minor angst

Dallas makes her way up to her tiny apartment, coffee in one hand and a roll of fabric in the other. She struggles with slotting her key in the keyhole, the shrill ring of her phone making her nerves heighten. She knows who’s calling her and she shouldn’t be so annoyed by it, but she is.

“Yes?” She says into the phone that’s now between her cheek and shoulder, voice short and hard.

Between the stress of finishing her first 5 pieces of her collection and Nick’s schedule not coinciding with hers, Dallas feels like she’s hanging by a single, tattered thread.

“Woah. What’s wrong?” Nick asks. She doesn’t even have to see him to know his eyebrows are furrowed and he’s biting at his lip.

“What isn’t wrong? My deadline is nearing its end and I still have one piece to work on. My fabric choices aren’t vast, so I’m literally hauling myself into any and every fabric store to find what I need. Oh! And I can’t talk to you right now,” she huffs into the phone, finally pushing her door open.

Her lips part to allow oxygen into her lungs. Her hair that was neat an hour ago, is now all over the place. Strands pulled out from her hairstyle now lay over her forehead and get caught in her mouth as she talks.

“Babe, it’ll be okay. You’re a fashion genius, you’ll figure it out. But, what do you mean you can’t talk?” He tries to hype her up, but he’s a little lackluster because she can’t talk.

“I already told you, Nick. My schedule is strict. I was available for a phone call yesterday- one that you were available for as well, but then you said that something came up. You’re the one who canceled our call yesterday, so yeah, I can’t talk today,” Dallas snaps, a hand pressing into her forehead to prevent the headache she already feels from draining her completely.

“I’m sorry, okay? I had something important that I couldn’t just cancel, but surely you can take a little break,” he says, trying to keep calm.

“I take a break every time I step away from the damn sewing machine to look for fabric, or to eat for fucks sake. I can’t do this right now. I need to let you go,” she rants and clicks the red button on her phone.

She inhales and exhales deep breaths and lets her tears drip down her cheeks. She feels bad for snapping at him, but he can’t expect her to drop everything when he won’t. You get what you give.

She stomps through the tiny layout of her temporary home, flinging herself on her bed and dialing Nick’s number.

“Hey,” he whispers.

“I’m sorry. I’m so stressed. If I don’t get this last piece figured out, then all of this will just be a waste of time and money. Money I can’t afford to lose out on. I can’t even begin to fathom what the investors will tell other companies about my capabilities. It doesn’t help that I miss you every single second of the day. I wish I was with you. Why did I come to Paris?” Dallas rants, her tears evident in the way her breathing stalls and her soft sniffles.

“Baby, I love you. You’re my wife and my wife is amazing at what she does. You’re having trouble right now, but you’ll figure it out. Once you do, you’ll be unstoppable. This isn’t a waste and those investor assholes don’t have any room to talk badly about you. I miss you so much, June bug. We’re going to be okay, though. Only a month left until you come back to me, or I can go to you. We can spend a week or two and do all the things you were too busy to do,” Nick soothes her. It feels like she’s being kissed through the phone.

She misses him so much.

“Promise?” Her voice is scratchy, but Nick can hear the vulnerability.

“I promise.”

“I love you, Nicky. Tell me about your day. Maybe I can spark up some up inspiration,” she allows herself one moment of peace, listening to her husband’s voice.

Texas Housing Shortage Deepens Despite Record Construction

Despite leading the nation in homebuilding, Texas faces a worsening housing shortage that is inflating housing costs statewide. Let’s dive into the data and explore what this means for real estate developers and investors.

The Numbers: An Escalating Crisis

The Texas housing shortage grew to 320,000 homes in 2022, up from 306,000 in 2021, despite Texas building more homes than any other U.S. state. This gap underscores the fact that even with a surge in new homes, primarily in suburban areas, population growth continues to outstrip supply. The nonprofit housing policy group Up For Growth reports these figures, highlighting the significant demand-supply imbalance.

Drivers of the Shortage

Rapid population growth, particularly in cities like Dallas, Houston, and Austin, has driven up housing prices and rents. Many new Texans are moving from states with higher costs of living, adding to the strain on housing availability and affordability. Historically, Texas has managed housing demand by building detached, single-family homes in the suburbs, keeping housing costs relatively affordable. However, this approach is no longer sufficient to meet the current demand.

Need for Denser Housing Types

Experts, including David Garcia of Up For Growth, suggest that outward expansion can no longer address Texas’ housing needs on its own. In urban centers, limited land availability and strict zoning rules hinder the development of denser, lower-cost housing types like townhomes, duplexes, and smaller apartment complexes. Loosening these restrictions could ease the strain by making it easier to build multi-family homes and other affordable options.

Regional Differences

The housing shortages vary by region across Texas, with some cities making progress in expanding their housing stock:

- Austin-Round Rock: Reduced its housing shortfall by a third, leading to a 16-month decline in rent, though the area remains short by nearly 24,000 homes.

- Houston and Dallas-Fort Worth: Saw their housing shortages grow despite greenlighting more construction projects than before the COVID-19 pandemic.

- El Paso: Has seen a minor easing of its housing shortage, a unique trend within the state.

Zoning Reforms: A Path Forward

Many housing advocates argue that restrictive zoning laws contribute significantly to the Texas housing crisis. While permissive toward single-family homes, Texas cities often restrict land for denser housing types, limiting the construction of affordable housing options. By adjusting these restrictions, cities could increase the housing supply and provide more affordable options for residents. However, zoning reforms face resistance from neighborhood groups and existing homeowners who often oppose denser housing developments.

Upcoming Policy Efforts

The Texas Legislature is expected to address the housing crisis when it reconvenes in Austin next year. A major topic will likely be the extent of state intervention versus local control in setting zoning laws. Some advocates propose state-level mandates to ensure all cities contribute to solving the housing shortage, while others emphasize the need for flexibility at the local level to tailor solutions to community needs.

“While every community should be accountable, the state can set expectations to ensure all cities are helping meet the housing demand,” Garcia said. Balancing state and city powers will be central to any meaningful progress in addressing Texas’ housing issues.

For real estate developers and investors, understanding the dynamics of Texas' housing market is crucial. The state's rapid population growth and significant housing shortages present both challenges and opportunities. Addressing zoning laws and supporting affordable housing initiatives will be key to managing this demand and capitalizing on the burgeoning market.

How Wall Street bought single-family homes and put them up for rent

Institutional investors may control 40% of U.S. single-family rental homes by 2030, according to MetLife Investment Management. And a group of Washington, D.C., lawmakers say Wall Street needs to back away from the market.

"What we're saying is don't have private equity buying up single-family homes," said Rep. Ro Khanna, a Democrat representing California's 17th Congressional District. Khanna is the lead author of the Stop Wall Street Landlords Act of 2022. "What's outrageous is your tax dollars are helping Wall Street buy up single-family homes," he said in an interview with CNBC.

The single-family rental industry got its start with government backing in the fallout after the 2008 financial crisis. "It was that rare opportunity that attracted the institutions to build a portfolio out of these foreclosed properties," said Steven Xiao, an assistant professor of finance and managerial economics at the University of Texas at Dallas.

Since the early 2010s, Tricon Residential, Progress Residential, American Homes 4 Rent and Invitation Homes have each bought thousands of homes. They've also added to the housing supply in some cases with built-for-rent communities.

Some of these companies are financed by private equity firms such as Blackstone and investment managers such as Pretium Partners.

"It's almost a captive market," said Jordan Ash, director of labor-jobs and housing at the Private Equity Stakeholder Project. "They've been very explicit about how people are shut out of the homebuying market and are going to be perpetual renters."

These calls come after fierce housing inflation hit many Sun Belt states, including Texas, Florida and Georgia, according to the National Association of Realtors.

The prices in some Sun Belt markets have outpaced national figures for rent inflation, according to research compiled by Zumper for CNBC. Between January 2020 and January 2023, rents for a two-bed detached home increased about 44% in Tampa, Florida, 43% in Phoenix, and 35% near Atlanta. That's compared with a 24% increase nationwide.

Industry advocates argue that they do not control enough market share to dictate prices in any market. Large institutions owned roughly 5% of the 14 million single-family rentals nationally in early 2022, according to analysts.

By 2030, the institutions may hold some 7.6 million homes, or more than 40% of all single-family rentals on the market, according to the 2022 forecast by MetLife Investment Management.

In the short term, however, some companies may retreat from the real estate market as correction concerns mount. "You will see some selling by us," said Jon Gray, Blackstone's chief operating officer, in a December 2022 interview with CNBC.

Included in this should be the billions of dollars worth of property bought by COS, most of which sits empty and the 1000s of acres Bill Gates has been purchasing. All of this to put a squeeze on home and property buyers.

[homosociallyyours]

Discovery started auto playing an HGTV show that I'm finding INFURIATING, so naturally i came here to describe it:

A pair of couples who flip houses have been sent to a new city (Dallas) with $1000 that they're supposed to turn into $1 million over 6 months. And part of why they're doing it? To show you that anyone can do the same 🥴

I could scream.

One of the couples put 3k miles on their car in the first week trying to find a house to buy super cheap on credit that they'd immediately sell to an investor for a higher price. They couldn't do it! So they used social media to find a design client.

The other couple managed to find and resell a home and used their 7k profit as a partial down payment on another house they'll flip. They've already talked about getting things on credit to make things easier.

This is not something anyone could do. This is not a way to start a business or make your way in the world. Ughhhhh

[ocean-of-junk]

its just another form of credit check. I've been denied an apartment for being $126 short on the proof of 3xrent, specifically in this case from apartment complexes run by greystar. this was before I knew greystar owned so many apartments in my area. Its impossible to get away from as more and more apartments are bought up by companies like greystar. Their whole thing is "Luxury" apartments.

I did eventually get an apartment owned by a different company but then a few years later guess who bought the complex.

my rent went from $780 in 2017 (first company), there were small increments of less than $100 each year up untill 2022. $820 in 2019. $897 in 2020, and $917 in 2021.

in the middle of 2021 greystar bough the complex.

my rent went up to $1435 in 2022. My specific apartment had 0 renovations in this time. I left because to continue would mean my lease would go up to $1685 in 2023. again with 0 renovations to my specific apartment. but they began remodeling vacant apartments and painted the exterior navy blue, changed the name of the apartments.

renamed to

THE ___*east cost area with old money*___ Luxury Apartments. Texas like many other states dose not have many rent increase protections.

they tell you upfront that you need 3x rent, "we'll work with you if you don't meet the 3x rent." , and then it also depends on your credit score. but thats after you pay the application fee, which is where lease agents make their bonuses if they get any.

the 3x generally isnt advertised as it might drive away potential clients and potential investors as it looks low class. if you have to ask, you can't afford it.

but I found one

here is another piece of the puzzle of rising rent prices

and another

someone smarter than me will probably explain it better but essentially. the algorithms these programs run are state and in some cases nation wide, and not local. which is great for national and international corporations like Greystar, who want to mitigate risk as much as possible. why worry about location when you can just rebrand any of your properties as luxury and rake in the cash. and then we have my other "favorite" company air b&b

but that's another long essay I won't get into.

Unpacking the Scale of the U.S. Multifamily Housing Market

The U.S. multifamily housing market is a cornerstone of the national real estate landscape, offering critical housing solutions for millions of Americans. Multifamily properties, including apartment buildings, condominiums, and mixed-use developments, serve a wide range of demographics. From young professionals drawn to urban centers to families seeking affordable housing and retirees downsizing, this market caters to diverse needs.

In recent years, the multifamily market has grown in response to increasing demand for rental housing. Economic factors, such as rising home prices, shifting demographics, and a preference for flexible living arrangements, have fueled this expansion. The sector now plays a vital role in addressing the nation’s housing challenges while also driving economic activity and innovation in real estate.

The Market’s Size and Economic Impact

Valued at over $3 trillion, the U.S. multifamily market is a giant within the real estate industry. More than 20 million apartment units make up this sector, with major cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Dallas leading in volume and value. However, the growth isn’t limited to urban centers. Suburban and secondary markets are increasingly contributing to the sector’s size as populations migrate for more affordable and spacious living options.

The economic impact of the multifamily market extends beyond its valuation. It drives significant investment activity, providing a stable and profitable asset class for institutional investors, real estate firms, and private stakeholders. Additionally, it supports millions of jobs in construction, property management, and related industries, underscoring its importance to the U.S. economy.

Emerging Trends in Multifamily Housing

Shifting societal and economic trends are shaping the multifamily market’s evolution. Urbanization continues to fuel demand for rental properties near employment hubs and public amenities, particularly among younger generations. As a result, developers are focusing on constructing high-density properties that integrate seamlessly with urban environments.

Sustainability and technology are also redefining the market. Green building practices, energy-efficient designs, and the integration of smart home technology have become critical priorities for developers and renters alike. These innovations not only reduce environmental impact but also enhance the living experience, attracting environmentally conscious tenants and positioning properties as forward-thinking investments.

Challenges to Growth and Affordability

Despite its expansion, the multifamily market faces challenges that could slow its momentum. Rising construction costs, driven by inflation and supply chain disruptions, have made it more expensive to develop new properties. These higher costs often translate into increased rental prices, raising concerns about housing affordability in many regions.

Additionally, zoning regulations and permitting processes can limit the development of new multifamily units, particularly in high-demand areas. These barriers exacerbate the housing supply gap, putting pressure on existing properties and making it harder for renters to find affordable options. Addressing these issues will require collaboration between policymakers, developers, and communities to create sustainable solutions.

Multifamily Housing as an Economic Stabilizer

The multifamily housing market serves as a stabilizing force in the broader economy, particularly during economic downturns. When homeownership becomes less attainable due to financial constraints, the demand for rental housing typically increases. This resilience has made multifamily properties a popular investment choice, offering consistent returns and lower risk compared to other real estate sectors.

Beyond its stability, the multifamily market contributes to local economies by generating tax revenues, creating jobs, and supporting infrastructure development. Its role in fostering community growth and providing housing solutions makes it a vital component of urban and suburban ecosystems.

The Road Ahead for Multifamily Housing

As population dynamics and housing preferences continue to evolve, the U.S. multifamily market is poised for further growth. Cities and suburbs alike will benefit from thoughtful, innovative development that meets the needs of a diverse population. For investors, developers, and policymakers, the multifamily market presents a unique opportunity to shape the future of housing while addressing pressing affordability and sustainability challenges.

The scale and influence of the U.S. multifamily housing market demonstrate its critical role in the country’s real estate landscape. With continued innovation and strategic planning, it will remain a driving force in providing housing solutions and economic vitality for years to come.

By J. David Goodman

Nearly nine years after his indictment on charges of felony security fraud, Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general, reached a deal with prosecutors on Tuesday to avoid a criminal trial that had been set to begin next month.

The deal, announced by the prosecutors and lawyers for Mr. Paxton during a hearing in Houston, does not involve any admission of guilt but requires Mr. Paxton to pay nearly $300,000 in restitution, take legal ethics classes and perform 100 hours of community service.

At the hearing, the judge in the case, Andrea Beall, asked questions but observed that the agreement had been made between the parties and the court could not block it.

“No judge can force a prosecutor to present evidence or call witnesses,” Judge Beall said. “This court does not have any say in this contract,” she added, before asking Mr. Paxton, who sat silently in the courtroom, if the signature on the document was his.

“Yes it is,” Mr. Paxton replied.

For Mr. Paxton, a three-term Republican incumbent, the agreement amounted to another victory over opponents who have long hoped that his legal troubles would lead to his political undoing. Last year, Mr. Paxton survived an impeachment by fellow Republicans in the Texas House over separate accusations of corruption and abuse of power made by his former top aides at the attorney general’s office.

A lawyer for Mr. Paxton, Dan Cogdell, said on Tuesday that the attorney general was glad to put the securities fraud case behind him. He underscored that the agreement was not a “plea bargain” and did not represent any admission of wrongdoing on Mr. Paxton’s part.

“He didn’t plead; there is no admission of guilt,” said Mr. Cogdell during a news conference after the hearing. “There will never be an admission of guilt because he’s not guilty.”

The deal appeared to put an end to a nearly decade-long legal saga that has seen the case delayed repeatedly, moved between Texas counties and ultimately set for a trial in Houston — far from Mr. Paxton’s home turf of Collin County, north of Dallas, where a grand jury handed up an indictment in 2015 and where Mr. Paxton has deep political ties.

The charges, which include two counts of felony securities fraud, stemmed from actions by Mr. Paxton when he was a member of the Texas House of Representatives, before his election as attorney general.

Mr. Paxton was accused of misleading investors in 2011 into putting money into a Dallas-area technology company without disclosing to them that he was making a commission on their investments. The investors included Mr. Paxton’s friends and a fellow state representative at the time. Mr. Paxton was also charged with failing to register with the state securities board.

Some of the accusations hung over Mr. Paxton’s first run for attorney general in 2014. But he was not indicted until several months into his first term as the state’s top lawyer.

Because of his political ties, the local district attorney in Collin County recused himself and appointed a pair of special prosecutors. The case languished for years as Mr. Paxton’s lawyers fought over the proper venue for a trial and the level of pay for the special prosecutors.

One of the special prosecutors, Brian Wice, said in an interview that the deal announced on Tuesday was “the fair, right and just thing for both sides.”

“The question wasn’t whether anyone was going to win,” Mr. Wice added. “The question was whether we had honored our oath to seek justice, and that’s what we believe that we did.”

Supporters of Mr. Paxton, including the lieutenant governor, Dan Patrick, celebrated the deal on Tuesday. Mr. Patrick presided over the trial by the Republican-dominated Texas Senate that acquitted Mr. Paxton after his impeachment.

“This bears a striking similarity to the impeachment debacle,” Mr. Patrick said in a statement. “The political hit squad in the Texas House failed again in their persecution of Ken Paxton.”

Mr. Cogdell, the lawyer for Mr. Paxton, also represented the attorney general during the impeachment trial and said that both proceedings were motivated by politics.

“They were shots fired from different grassy knolls,” Mr. Cogdell said in an interview. “He would not have been charged but for the politics of it.”

Mr. Cogdell added that he believed Mr. Paxton would have been acquitted of the securities fraud charges but accepted the deal because of the uncertainty of a jury trial.

Mr. Paxton has 18 months to complete the terms of the deal. Failure to fulfill them could result in a resumption of the criminal case. If that were to happen, there would be no more delays, Judge Beall said, and she would set a “very speedy trial.”

also to add on to her going to paris for a year-

maybe she lines up to stay there for year, has everything ironed out

but like 2 months into it she’s calling nick (brother nick) about how she just misses nick, but because of how they left things when she went to paris she’s scared to call him

and he talks her into calling him, and they talk things over, and she ends up doing something like flying back and forth? like she’s in the states for a bit, then comes back, then goes back, etc. until the investor contract thing is up

Big brother Nick😭😭

He is very helpful during this time in her life!

I think Dallas would honestly go home before she even makes it a month in Paris

She misses Nick so much and he’s what she wants at the end of the day

Sunbelt Rental Demand Surges as New Construction Slows

Key multifamily markets in the Sunbelt—Texas, Florida, and North Carolina—are experiencing renewed rental demand, positioning the region for strong future growth.

After two years of climbing vacancy rates caused by a supply and demand mismatch, the Sunbelt has entered a new phase of opportunity. A recent multifamily report by American Landmark highlights how this resurgence is closely tied to a sharp decline in new construction starts, alongside ongoing population growth and economic expansion in the region.

Why the Sunbelt Stays in Demand

Southern states continue to attract residents and businesses due to a combination of factors:

• Favorable climate: Mild winters and abundant sunshine appeal to both individuals and companies.

• Economic opportunities: Thriving industries, including tech, finance, and manufacturing, are fueling job growth.

• Business-friendly policies: Low taxes, minimal regulation, and lower overall costs of living compared to other regions make the South a magnet for relocation.

These advantages have led to an impressive 87% of the nation’s population growth in 2023, adding over 1.4 million residents to the South, which now boasts a population exceeding 130 million.

The Impact of New Construction on Occupancy Rates

One of the most significant factors affecting multifamily occupancy in the Sunbelt is the influx of new construction. Newly built properties often experience a “lease-up” phase that temporarily inflates vacancy rates. However, when these projects are excluded, occupancy rates tell a different story:

• Dallas: Vacancy rates drop from 11% to 8%.

• Tampa: A sharper fall from 12% to 6.1%.

This trend signals a robust underlying demand for rental housing, especially as construction cycles slow.

Market Highlights Across the Sunbelt

Texas

In major metros like Dallas/Ft. Worth and Houston, occupied multifamily stock grew by 3% in 2023. Even with ongoing lease-ups, vacancy rates remain in the single digits, and they are expected to stabilize by early 2025. Texas’ absence of state income tax and warm climate continue to draw diverse renters, supporting positive rent growth.

Florida

Florida remains a standout market, with Jacksonville and Orlando leading the charge. Occupied stock in these cities grew by over 6% last year, and vacancy rates hover near 6% when excluding new developments. The state’s appeal to retirees and remote workers ensures rental demand stays high, while construction starts are projected to taper by mid-2025.

North Carolina

Tight housing markets and rising home prices are prompting more North Carolinians to rent. Cities like Charlotte and Raleigh are experiencing strong demand fueled by job growth in the tech and finance sectors. Charlotte, for instance, saw a 5.1% increase in occupied multifamily units as of Q2 2024. However, a relatively small reduction in new construction (16%) could keep vacancy rates higher than average through 2025.

Emerging Markets

Other Southern states such as South Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia are also benefitting from population growth and job creation. Cities like Nashville and Charleston are seeing steady rent increases, while Atlanta is poised for positive rent growth starting in 2025 as construction slows.

Navigating the Path Forward

The Sunbelt’s multifamily market is undergoing a critical transition. While rent growth has decelerated since the pandemic’s unsustainable surge, this adjustment is a necessary correction that aligns with market fundamentals. As construction starts decline and the pace of new supply normalizes, steady demand is likely to drive sustained rent growth across the region.

For developers and investors, the Sunbelt remains a compelling opportunity—one where strategic timing and targeted investments can yield significant returns.

Are you seeing similar trends in your markets? Let’s continue the conversation—what’s your take on the Sunbelt’s multifamily momentum?
