About This Episode

Trying to decide where to invest heading into 2026 — single family or multifamily? With listings rising, affordability tightening, and renter demand accelerating, the data clearly points toward multifamily.

In this episode, Mark Faris and John Makarewicz break down what’s really happening in today’s housing market in both the U.S. and Canada — why single-family is softening, why multifamily is strengthening, and why 2026 may be a standout year for well-bought multifamily. They dive into the impact of the new Fannie/Freddie lending caps, improving debt liquidity, early signs of price stabilization, and the advantages of buying below replacement cost in high-growth markets.

What You’ll Learn:

✔ How today’s single-family slowdown is fueling multifamily rental demand

✔ Why Canada and the U.S. are experiencing very different multifamily supply cycles

✔ What the new 2026 Fannie & Freddie lending caps mean for investors

✔ Why buying below replacement cost is a core part of FCP’s strategy
