A federal appeals court ruling now allows landlords' lawsuit over eviction bans to move forward. Here's what this means for property owners, especially those who were impacted by the eviction moratorium during the pandemic.The court decision, handed down on Friday, denies a request for a full court hearing, leaving the door open for landlords to seek potential claims against the federal government. This lawsuit stems from the Biden administration’s eviction moratorium that handcuffed landlords from evicting residents who couldn’t pay rent, or in some cases, simply refused to.🏢 What’s at stake?Some estimates suggest landlords could be looking at over $23 billion in potential claims related to lost rent during the moratorium. But what does this mean for landlords who bought properties during the pandemic? Can they reclaim those losses or will it be limited to current owners?Mike weighs in on the implications and offers his perspective on how this could be a huge win for landlords—despite the understandable need for eviction moratoriums at the time.🔔 Stay tuned for more updates from Apartmentalize 2025, including in-depth analysis and thought-provoking discussions that are shaping the future of multifamily.

But that shift won’t happen on accident.It takes upskilling.It takes rethinking your role.It takes knowing what to focus on right now.The agentic workforce is already reshaping multifamily—and the question isn’t when, it’s how fast.So what are you doing to get ready?👇 Let me know your thoughts in the comments.👍 Like this episode if it pushed your thinking forward.📌 Subscribe for more forward-looking insights from Multifamily Collective.
