The surge in multifamily deliveries over the last year has weakened fundamentals across the country, but the extent of the exposure varies across – and even within – markets. In this environment, we believe the ability to peel back the layers on market-level narratives is critically important for investors. Britteni Lupe

We’re excited to welcome students from 15 universities and colleges including Yale University, University of Notre Dame, Vanderbilt University, and the University of Southern California, to our Tomorrow’s Real Estate Leaders program. Kicking off today, the program will feature a keynote Q&A with speaker Arturo Sneider, hands-on workshops with our real estate teams, and many other learning sessions.

In our latest multifamily asset class update, our panel makes the case that the asset class forecast features “mixed current conditions but momentum mounting.” Some of that momentum comes from niche markets, such as student housing, seniors’ housing, active adult and single-family rentals. And while the sector as a whole is experiencing a cyclic slowdown, fundamentals will stabilize and market health will return in the 5-10 year time frame. “[If] you invest earlier in recoveries, you tend to do better," says Sabrina Unger, Managing Director, Research and Strategy, American Realty Advisors. “And I think that’s going to hold true in multifamily when we look back on this period.” Unger’s pick for one prime investment opportunity? She suggests investors buy below replacement costs now, make the sort of value-added renovations that today’s renters desire, and offer units at rates that are just below those of the brand-new class-A multifamily properties.  Also featuring perspectives from: • stephen benjamin, Managing Partner & CEO, The Dermot Company, LP Company • Erin Patterson (she/her), Global Co-Head of Research & Strategy, Manulife Investment Management • Brian Klinksiek, global head of research and strategy, LaSalle Investment Management Get more up-to-the-minute asset class updates at our Winter Conference: https://lnkd.in/gAjFBdwi #multifamily #singlefamilyrental #affordablehousing #commercialrealestate #CRE #USrealestate AFIRE POV interviews sum up how the industry’s experts are feeling about the most important topics in commercial real estate investing.
