Those aren't necessarily in conflict, if, as per the article, new units were increasing at an even faster rate. E.g., > The biggest wave of new rental buildings in nearly four decades is expected to cut the pace of rent growth across the country.

Our population growth doesn't meet that it is because of artificial unavailability of apartments. A 2 month gap between each apartment as people move around because they either wanted to live somewhere else or got a job that paid more. This constant moving causes too many issues like increased cost of living, over hiring (bad company performance) and under hiring (good company performance) each feeding into each other. As the market stabilizes and companies don't rush to make the next battle royale and force massive pay increases because of the above it will stabilize or even plummet back to normal costs. HOWEVER it will cause more vacancies in jobs and more vacanies in apartments because there isn't this queue or artificial unavailability of a role or place to stay which eventually will causes the above to happen again.
