Amazon HQ2 Arlington Delay | Phase 2 Paused Until 2028 | Home-Price Outlook

Arlington quietly gave Amazon three extra years to start PenPlace, pushing the deadline to 30 June 2028.
Two years after approval, not one steel beam stands.
Job projections dropped from “high” confidence to “moderate,” yet median home prices near Crystal City rose this spring.

Why the disconnect?
• Short-term demand dip: fewer Amazon hires this year means less immediate buyer pressure.
• Scarcity premium: inventory remains tight, so even modest demand lifts prices.
• Long-term anchor: a signed extension signals Amazon is still all-in, keeping speculative capital parked in Arlington.

Strategic takeaways
• Owners: enjoy breathing room but price realistically—tech optimism alone won’t close a gap.
• Buyers: watch for east-of-13th Street projects where builders chase lower land costs.
• Investors: position before utility work restarts; rental demand could spike once construction resumes.

Let’s debate: does the delay help create a healthier market or just mask risk? Comment with your view.
