If you're thinking about investing in real estate right now—especially through a platform like Arrived Homes—it helps to look beyond the marketing headlines and get into the actual numbers. Two cities that keep popping up for investors are Memphis, Tennessee and Phoenix, Arizona. Both are active Arrived markets. But while they're both on the radar, they're moving in completely different directions in 2025.
Phoenix is growing fast, with new construction still ramping up and vacancy rates rising. Memphis, on the other hand, is tightening—fast. Supply is shrinking, rents are rising, and occupancy is pushing past 94% in the city's strongest submarkets. Whether you're looking for short-term cash flow, long-term appreciation, or just trying to make a smart entry into real estate, knowing how these two markets stack up is the key to deciding where your next dollar should go.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tight Supply, Rising Rents, and Strong Cash Flow Potential</h2>
Memphis isn't flashy—but for real estate investors, that's kind of the point. What you get here is a stable, landlord-friendly market with rents that are rising, occupancy rates that are climbing, and home prices that are still within reach. Multifamily construction in Memphis has slowed to a crawl. New starts dropped 60% in 2024, and completions are down another 36% in 2025. That kind of supply squeeze is exactly what drives investor returns.
Occupancy is already strong—sitting at over 94% in East Memphis, Midtown, and Collierville—and net absorption is projected to outpace new deliveries by more than 50% this year. That means fewer units are coming online and the ones that do exist are filling fast. As a result, rents are beginning to climb again—between 2.4% and 4% depending on the neighborhood. That's especially encouraging after a relatively flat 2024.
Affordability is another key reason Memphis stands out. Median rents for all units range from $1,300 to $1,342, with one-bedroom apartments averaging around $1,100. Investors aren't paying a premium to enter this market either—median home prices are still hovering around $190,000. That makes Memphis one of the best cities in the U.S. for cash-flow-focused investing, especially if you're building a diversified portfolio through fractional ownership.
And unlike what we're seeing in oversupplied metros, concessions in Memphis are rare. Landlords don't need to offer free rent or move-in bonuses to fill their units. Demand is strong enough to stand on its own, and that puts investors in a great position to earn consistent, stable returns from day one.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">High Vacancy, Heavy Concessions—but Long-Term Promise</h2>
Phoenix is almost the opposite story. It's still one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, with a steady stream of new residents relocating from California, the Midwest, and beyond. But in 2025, that population growth hasn't kept pace with the surge in new rental inventory. Active listings are up 20.5% year-over-year, vacancy is sitting at 7.5%—well above the national average—and over half of all listings (56%) are now offering concessions just to attract tenants.
For renters, that's great news. There's more selection, more negotiating power, and lots of opportunities to score deals. But for landlords and investors, the math is trickier. Rent growth has essentially stalled, up just 1.2% over the past year. Most property managers are projecting flat rent performance until 2026, when the excess supply is expected to get absorbed and growth potentially picks back up to 4–6%.
Phoenix is also more expensive on nearly every front. The average rent is $1,646—over $300 higher than Memphis—and larger units easily push past $2,100 per month. While that can translate to higher gross rents, it also means higher acquisition costs, greater tenant turnover risk, and a more competitive landscape for landlords trying to fill vacancies.
Still, Phoenix has something Memphis doesn't: scale and long-term upside. The city's economy continues to expand. Infrastructure is improving. And the west side, where much of the new supply is concentrated, is expected to stabilize over the next 12–18 months. For long-term investors who can handle softer returns in the short run, Phoenix could still deliver strong appreciation over time.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Which City Wins in 2025?</h2>
If you're asking which city gives you the better investment opportunity right now, the answer is simple: Memphis. It has rising rents, tightening supply, high occupancy, and investor-friendly prices. You don't need to offer tenant incentives. You don't need to worry about competing with hundreds of other landlords. And you can still buy into this market at a price point that leaves plenty of room for cash flow.
Phoenix, meanwhile, is better for renters in 2025. They're enjoying a rare moment of leverage—more supply, lower rent growth, and generous concessions. For investors, the current picture is more complicated. Yes, Phoenix still has long-term potential. But it's a tougher market right now. If you're investing in Phoenix, you're betting on the rebound—waiting for the oversupply to shake out and rent growth to resume.
But if you want to start earning reliable rental income now—not in 2026 or beyond—Memphis is where you want to be putting your capital today.

Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) says that its new affordable EV platform will match up to its Chinese counterparts on cost.
What Happened: Lisa Drake, Ford's Vice President for EVs Systems and Platform Programs, shared some insight into the Detroit-based automaker's EV plans with Bernstein analyst Daniel Roeska, Axiom reported <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/06/18/ford-china-ev">on</a> Wednesday.
"Ford intends to match the cost structure of leading Chinese players. That means not just battery pricing, but full system cost from chassis and thermal systems to inverters and electronics," Roeska wrote. The report also gives a 2027 due date for the EV.
The analyst also said that the new platform will support over 8 body styles, including pickups, sedans and crossovers. "With eight body styles and potential global applicability, it&#8217;s intended to underpin Ford&#8217;s EV strategy for much of the next decade," Roeska said.
The company plans on using Prismatic LFP batteries, built in collaboration with Chinese battery giant CATL or Contemporary Amperex Technology Ltd. However, the batteries will be produced in the U.S., the report suggests.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as Ford reportedly opened its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45562915/ford-will-let-nissan-use-part-of-kentucky-battery-factory-could-this-be-a-scaling-back-on-ev-ambitions">doors for Nissan </a>to use the company's flagship EV battery production plant in Kentucky, amid a projected $5.5 billion loss on EVs in 2025.
The company has said that U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs would cost them over $1.5 billion, with company executive chair Bill Ford also expressing concern about the GOP's proposal to axe the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45732185/whats-going-on-with-ford-stock-monday-2"> $7500 EV credit</a>.&nbsp;
The company also hiked prices of some of its<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45277938/ford-hikes-prices-of-select-mexico-produced-vehicles-amid-auto-tariff-uncertainty-report"> Mexico-produced EVs</a>, including the Mustang Mach-E, Bronco Sport and Maverick Pickup truck. It's worth noting that Ford produces over 80% of its vehicles domestically.
Elsewhere, the company had recently issued a recall for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46012477/ford-recalls-over-197000-vehicles-for-backseat-issue-that-could-trap-occupants-in-emergency-situations">Mustang Mach-E</a> as well as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45739688/ford-recalls-over-29500-f-150-lightning-pickup-trucks-over-suspension-defect">F150 Lightning EV</a> pickup truck over a rear seat occupant and suspension issue, respectively.

FinVolution Group ("FinVolution" or the "Company") (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FINV#NYSE">FINV</a>), a leading fintech platform in China, Indonesia and the Philippines, today announced a proposed offering (the "Notes Offering") of convertible senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of US$130 million due 2030 (the "Notes"), subject to market conditions and other factors, only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule&nbsp;144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company intends to grant the initial purchasers in the Notes Offering an option to purchase up to an additional US$20 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes, exercisable for settlement within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the date on which the Notes are first issued.
The Company plans to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering for (i) international business expansions, (ii) replenishment of working capital, and (iii) funding the Concurrent Repurchase (as described below).
Proposed Terms of the Notes
When issued, the Notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of the Company. The Notes will mature on July 1, 2030 unless repurchased, redeemed, or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date.
Holders may convert their Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the third scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, ADSs, each representing five Class A ordinary shares of the Company, or a combination of cash and ADSs, at the Company's election. The interest rate, initial conversion rate and other terms of the Notes will be determined at the time of pricing of the Notes Offering.
Holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or part of their Notes for cash on July 3, 2028 or in the event of certain fundamental changes, in each case, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased,&nbsp;plus&nbsp;accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant repurchase date. Furthermore, the Company may redeem all but not part of the Notes in the event of certain changes in the tax laws or if less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued remains outstanding at such time, in each case, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,&nbsp;plus&nbsp;accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the related redemption date. Any redemption may occur only prior to the 92nd scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date.
Concurrent Repurchase
Concurrently with the pricing of the Notes Offering, the Company plans to repurchase a number of ADSs to be determined at the time of pricing of the Notes Offering from certain purchasers of the Notes in off-market privately negotiated transactions effected through one of the initial purchasers or its affiliates, as the Company's agent (such transactions, the "Concurrent Repurchase"). The Concurrent Repurchase is expected to facilitate the initial hedging by purchasers of the Notes who desire to hedge their investments in the Notes, as the Company intends to repurchase the entire initial delta of the transaction. This will allow such purchasers of the Notes to establish short positions that generally correspond to commercially reasonable initial hedges of their investments in the Notes. The Concurrent Repurchase will be made pursuant to the Company's existing share repurchase programs announced in August 2023 and March 2025. The Company expects the purchase price in the Concurrent Repurchase to be the last reported sale price per ADS on the New York Stock Exchange on June 18, 2025.

Nasdaq based its determination upon concerns related to (i) the Company's announcement of its intention to file under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) (the "BIA") and the associated public interest concerns raised by such filing, (ii) the residual equity interest of the existing listed securities holders, and (iii) the Company's ability to sustain compliance with all requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq.
The Determination Letter also advises the Company of its right to request an appeal of the determination. However,&nbsp;the Company currently does not intend to file an appeal of the determination. Accordingly,&nbsp;the Company expects that its securities will be suspended from trading at the opening of business on&nbsp;June 24, 2025&nbsp;and delisted from Nasdaq after the completion of Nasdaq's filing of Form 25-NSE with the&nbsp;Securities and Exchange Commission.
Filing under the BIA
Further to its press release dated June 16, 2025, the Company announces having filed under the BIA on June 18, 2025. As a result of such filing, the board of directors of the Company has resigned effective as of such date.
