I was driving by last month and noticed lot of construction happening in Bixby area.

My expertise is in the fix and flip space and now, I'm heavy into ground-up, new construction of DUPLEXES and Build 2 Rent (B2R).

However, since interest rates jumped up in 2022, new construction starts have dropped a ton in the area, so within the next 1-3 years the amount of new supply coming into the market will drop a ton, and we should see demand outpace supply again and start seeing organic rent growth come back. 2015-2022 you would see 3-10% organic rent growth per year depending on the property and submarket.
