Office-to-residential conversions haven’t fallen out of favor with the mayor. Buckling columns at the former Pfizer headquarters in Midtown weren’t enough to deter the mayor’s pursuit of office-to-residential conversions as part of his broader housing plan for 200,000 units over the next decade. The risky situation at 235 East 42nd Street on Tuesday was partially stabilized by Wednesday afternoon, but concerns remain about how the city’s largest residential conversion project proceeded without safeguards to prevent structural failures when adding floors to a former office building. Mayor Zohran Mamdani insisted at a press conference Wednesday morning that structural issues with the []This article originally appeared on The Real Deal. Click here to read the full story.

Rent ‘stabilisation’ recorded across Australia over past 30 days

SQM Research Managing Director Louis Christopher says rents are not rising to the same extent as some on social media suggest. ​“On our numbers over the past 30 days, we have actually recorded a stabilisation of rents,” Mr Christopher told Sky News Business Editor Ross Greenwood. ​“If we look over the last 12 months, rents have accelerated; we’ve got them up by about 6.9 per cent as a capital city average, and it’s well above CPI and well above wages growth. ​“During winter times, we tend to see a little bit of a lull in the rental market, where rents tend to stabilise. ​“What we’ve seen over the past 30 days is just that seasonal lull, so my point is that we are not ruling out could accelerate from here.”
