We've got a huge disparity between rents and home prices here in norcal, and its going to be made worse. A *ton* of apartment buildings are being built and they just cant rent them. Right now you can get 2+ months of free rent and a $99 security deposit at a lot of the new and older buildings. However, rents between a small 2 bedroom apartment and a small 2 bedroom home are roughly the same, making it tough to rent in a building.
Next step I guess is to convert the buildings from apartments to condos, flooding the market with those. I understand some developers are going this route, building apartments and renting for a year and then converting because the requirements to build a condo are more stringent than building apartments.
