What Is The ’Real’ Reality?

CoStar, one of the leading commercial real estate property resources has a daily news feed and today one of its headlines read ‘San Francisco Apartment Rents Plateau as COVID surge Upends Rebound.”  The San Francisco Business Times today had as one of its headlines “S.F. Is A Hot Rental Market Again.”  Probably both are true, and like the return to the office news with some sources reporting companies are still going ahead, albeit more slowly, in getting office workers back in the office, while other sources report more tech firms either really pushing off reentry until sometime in 2022 or promising their workers they can go remote forever,  It is sometimes hard to pin-point reality when there are so many moving targets!
