Cash Poised for a Plunge
Our headline is what Haynes and Boone partner Rick Martin  sees in the CRE market. Interest in multifamily is there, but the properties aren't.

One Victory Park
Haynes and Boone's new digs: the 20-story One Victory Park in the $3 billion Victory development. The firm—which downsized to 175k SF on 6 floors—was one of the first major tenants to relocate to the building. So, who or what is to blame for the current state of the CRE market? Hear Rick's take at Bisnow's Dallas-Fort Worth State of the Market  this Thursday. He'll be joined by Duke Realty EVP Jeff Turner, Granite Properties prez Michael Dardick, Behringer Harvard prez Robert Aisner, and more. Sign up today!
