Best In Tennessee Real Estate™: Memphis

72.5% of new homes built in the Memphis metro since 2020 are concentrated in just three cities—Memphis, Collierville, and Oakland. This level of spatial concentration is reshaping the region’s development trajectory. As one of the most uneven housing delivery patterns in Tennessee, it underscores how growth is not distributed equitably. For the Memphis market, this means that while some areas see rising demand and investment, others face stagnation.
