As 2025 comes to a close, capital is showing early signs of movement — but this isn’t a recovery story. In this episode, we break down three year-end signals shaping real estate and credit markets: rising pending home sales, continued financing for stabilized multifamily assets, and accelerating regional bank consolidation.
The takeaway is clear: demand exists, capital is available, and lending continues — but only where risk is tightly controlled. This is not a broad re-opening of credit. It’s a precision market that rewards execution, structure, and balance-sheet strength.
A concise, institutional-level view of what’s actually happening beneath the headlines — and what it means heading into 2026.
