The Real Estate Market is Splitting in Two

As we move deeper into 2025, the U.S. real estate market is diverging into two distinct lanes—a booming demand for luxury homes and an intensifying shortage of affordable housing.

While high-net-worth buyers continue upgrading to larger homes in key suburban and metro areas, rising interest rates and economic shifts are driving more people into the rental market, tightening supply in the workforce housing sector.

At NNG Capital Fund, we are bullish on both trends, strategically investing in:

✅ Ground-up residential developments in Northern New Jersey, where limited inventory is driving record-high demand.
✅ Multifamily housing in Georgia, where affordability pressures and rental demand create strong cash flow opportunities.

Here’s what’s shaping the market and why now is the time to position yourself for strong returns.

Key Market Forces Investors Need to Watch

Powell’s Testimony to Congress: What It Means for Real Estate

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell testified before Congress this month, reinforcing the Fed’s commitment to keeping interest rates higher for longer.

🔹 Mortgage rates remain elevated, locking more Americans into rentals and making well-located multifamily housing even more valuable.
🔹 Shelter costs continue driving inflation, pushing rents up and reinforcing the need for quality rental housing.
🔹 The next Fed meeting on March 19 will offer more insight, but rate cuts are not expected in the near term.

For investors, this means that multifamily and new construction residential developments remain the smartest plays in today’s market.

HUD’s Workforce Cuts Will Tighten Affordable Housing Supply

HUD and the FHA are slashing their workforce by nearly 50%, as part of the government’s attempt to reduce spending.

✅ A slowdown in federal-backed affordable housing programs will limit new supply.
✅ More pressure on the private sector to meet rising rental demand.
✅ Well-managed rental properties will become even more valuable assets.

For investors, this presents a major opportunity to own and operate cash-flowing multifamily properties in supply-constrained markets. Middle Georgia, in particular, remains one of the best places to invest.

Luxury Housing: A Strong Market with Limited Supply

While affordability challenges are keeping many in the rental market, the luxury housing sector remains incredibly strong.

Single-family home sales in NJ are up 11.4% (Google).

Housing supply is critically low, with just two months’ worth of listings available (Redfin).

Rents are projected to increase by 4.9% this year (Zillow).

Celebrity broker Ryan Serhant recently confirmed that ultra-luxury condos in Manhattan are in short supply, and this trend is spreading to suburban markets like Northern New Jersey.

We continue to see record-breaking demand for new construction homes in premium NJ neighborhoods, which is why we’re aggressively investing in ground-up residential projects here.

Office-to-Residential Conversions Are Reshaping Multifamily Markets

The shift away from office space is accelerating, with nearly 50% of all adaptive reuse projects in early 2025 converting office buildings into apartments.

According to Rent Cafe, the top six markets leading this trend are:

1. New York
2. Washington, D.C.
3. Los Angeles
4. Chicago
5. Dallas
6. Atlanta

This is great news for multifamily investors, as it increases rental supply and presents opportunities to acquire repositioned properties at discounted prices.

Why Georgia is a Prime Multifamily Investment Market in 2025

Georgia continues to be one of the strongest rental markets in the country.

📈 Rent prices are expected to grow by 2.5% in 2025, with studio rents up 5.9% (HUD).
📈 The average monthly rent in GA is just $1,408 (Apartments.com), making it an affordable alternative to high-cost metros.
📈 Property prices are rising, but sellers are offering more concessions, creating better entry points for investors (Houzeo).

With its growing job market and economic expansion, Georgia remains a high-demand rental market where cash flow and appreciation opportunities continue to thrive.

The Opportunity for Investors in 2025

The real estate market is splitting into two dominant investment themes:

Luxury housing is thriving in key markets like Northern New Jersey, where demand far exceeds supply.

Workforce multifamily housing is in critical demand, particularly in Georgia, where affordability is a major issue.
NNG Capital Fund is strategically positioned to take advantage of both trends, ensuring strong investor returns.

We are investing in the markets that matter—where housing shortages, economic growth, and demographic shifts create long-term value.
