Why We’re Buying Less — And Why That’s a Good Thing (NMHC 2026 Outlook)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the LSCRE Podcast, Craig McGrouther sits down with Director of Acquisitions Brad Oliver to break down what really happened at NMHC, how 2025 unfolded, and where multifamily opportunities are forming in 2026.
They discuss:
Why Houston is leading the recovery
Why Dallas remains selective
Why markets like Austin, San Antonio, and Phoenix are still working through oversupply
Why foreclosure and distress don’t automatically equal opportunity
How risk-adjusted returns matter more than deal volume
Why LSCRE only closed two deals in 2025
What types of deals lenders are finally forcing to market
And why Preserve at Copper Springs stands out as a rare, high-conviction acquisition
This conversation pulls back the curtain on how institutional operators think about:
✔ Market cycles
✔ Supply & demand
✔ Deal liquidity
✔ Underwriting discipline
✔ Downside protection
If you’re a passive investor, 1031 exchanger, or multifamily operator, this episode explains why patience, discipline, and location selection matter more than ever heading into 2026.
