Oakland’s real estate crisis didn’t stop at $529 million — it just crossed $1.1 billion, and for the first time, it’s spreading to the apartments where people actually live.In this follow-up, I break down what’s happened across Oakland real estate since my last video: KKR, one of the largest private equity firms in the world, handing back the 24-story tower where Clorox has its headquarters. Billionaire Barry Sternlicht’s Starwood Capital walking away from $442 million in downtown office towers. A court-appointed receiver taking over one of Oakland’s most recognizable hotels right before it closed for good. And — for the first time — apartment buildings where regular people live going back to the banks for a fraction of their value.I’ll also show you the number almost nobody’s talking about: Oakland rents and occupancy are climbing at their fastest pace in years, even as these buildings fail. This isn’t a story about a city nobody wants — it’s a story about a market getting repriced by financing and timing, not demand. And I’ll compare what nine entire apartment buildings sold for combined to what one NBA superstar paid for a single house down the Peninsula — the comparison that reframes this whole crisis.Whether you own a home in the East Bay, you’re thinking about buying, or you just want to understand what’s actually happening in this market versus what the headlines say, this is the update you need.🔗 Haven’t seen Part 1?
