Episode: Cap Rates, Debt Costs and the 2025 Investment Sweet Spot with John Chang
Description: John Chang breaks down the latest economic and market signals after a week of meetings in New York City. He explains how the temporary government funding deal both alleviates short-term pressures and extends broader uncertainty—impacting GDP, consumer spending, and investor sentiment. John also unpacks capital flows, interest-rate volatility tied to upcoming Federal Reserve changes, and why debt availability is improving even as risk factors persist. He contrasts Sun Belt oversupply with strong performance in low-construction markets, and ultimately argues that today’s elevated cap rates and stable debt costs may represent a rare “sweet spot” for long-term investors.
