Timothy Argo, Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy & Analysis Officer at Mid-America Apartment Communities (MAA), participated in the company’s first quarter 2025 earnings call on May 1, 2025. During the call, Argo discussed the company’s outlook on rental pricing, stating that MAA expects new lease pricing to push forward in the second and third quarters before moderating in the fourth quarter. He noted that renewal rates for May and June appeared strong and that July renewals were also expected to be robust, with renewal acceptances exceeding the prior year’s levels. Argo also addressed trends in resident move-outs, reporting that move-outs to purchase a home declined significantly in the first quarter, representing about 12% of total move-outs, down roughly 16% year-over-year. He attributed this decline to ongoing affordability challenges, including continued increases in single-family home prices and elevated mortgage rates, even as rental rates have moderated over the past 12 to 18 months.
