Shift in Supply Dynamics and Market Delivery Trends for 2025-2026

Supply growth in the company's markets is tapering off, with a reduction in deliveries to less than 2% in 2026, a 43% decrease from 2024 actual deliveries.
Delivery volumes are being pulled forward from 2026 into 2025, especially in markets like Dallas, Denver, and others, leading to a more compressed timeline for new supply.
