Industry Leaders Advocate Proactive Hedging Strategies
Early on in Connect CRE’s 2025 Summer Leadership Series, we presented the views of four key industry figures on hedging strategies for the current market volatility.
As we head into the final quarter of 2025, Porter Kyle is excited to bring you the latest insights shaping housing, investment, and development across Phoenix and beyond. In this edition, we cover key market trends—from the national housing shortage and rental rebound highlighted by JPMorgan and John Burns to Phoenix’s ongoing economic momentum fueled by tech giants like Nvidia and TSMC. We also explore how luxury rental communities are attracting high-net-worth residents, reflecting a broader shift in housing preferences as ownership becomes increasingly out of reach.
We’re also thrilled to share an update from the field: The Wayne in Chandler has completed all underground work, started foundation pours, and will begin vertical construction in the coming weeks. Each article in this newsletter offers actionable insights for investors, renters, and industry professionals alike. Don’t miss a beat—sign up to receive Porter Kyle updates directly and stay informed on the projects, trends, and opportunities driving the Valley’s housing and real estate market forward.
