Condo Shortage on the Horizon?

Palomar
Hotel Palomar occupies the same building as the Waterview.
According to Tom Meyer of Condo 1, "Arlington is a boom town. Just look at the cranes in Courthouse, Clarendon, Ballston. New office buildings, new rental projects, new restaurants and retail. BUT .... New condos? Nope!" Real estate data seems indicate that condo and home prices in Arlington are about to rise.  Tom says, "We are about to enter a phase of economic recovery in which thousands of new Arlington residents will be paying lots of $$$ for rental apartments. Of course, they move in and immediately realize that they would be better off converting that money into home equity in their own condo. But there has been virtually no new supply built in the past five years. This bodes very well for future condo prices in the R-B Corridor."
