Austin's multifamily sector is expected to benefit from a strong labor market and a return in investor confidence, a report from the Marcus & Millichap finds.

That comes even as metro inventory in Atlanta is expected to tick up by more than seven percent for the second consecutive year, representing the highest increase among all major markets in the U.S.
