With financing for office and retail all but dried up, residential stands out as one asset class where deals are getting done. Plus, with support from Federal government spending, Montgomery County remains one of the country’s strongest rental and home buying markets.
Never has it been more important to understand this dynamic market. How will residential projects fare in 2010? Will capital loosen up? What will the fate be of GSEs this year, and how will it affect the multifamily market? With land beginning to trade again, what are the trends to look for in 2010? How will the recent uptick in home building and home pricing affect other parts of the market?
Join Bisnow and the leaders of MoCo‘s Multifamily and Singlefamily real estate sector January 19 at the beautiful Woodmont Country Club to gain invaluable information, insight, and (of course) schmooze time.
