Why to Attend the New York Multifamily Development & Investment Event

New York’s multifamily landscape is evolving faster than ever, especially with a new administration running New York City. The next wave of opportunity will belong to those who can balance creativity, capital discipline, and construction realities. At Bisnow’s New York Multifamily event, you’ll join the region’s most active developers, investors, lenders, and design and construction leaders for a candid look at what’s driving and challenging the next cycle of housing growth across the five boroughs and beyond.

 

Expect deep dives into how today’s projects are getting financed, built, and leased in a market where cost pressures, zoning updates, and shifting renter demographics are forcing teams to rethink their playbooks. From new approaches to underwriting and project delivery to the latest policy changes shaping development feasibility, attendees will walk away with actionable insights and strategies from those leading the charge on New York’s next generation of multifamily projects.

 

Whether you’re focused on ground-up development, adaptive reuse, or long-term investment, this is your chance to:

  • Hear directly from developers pioneering creative deal structures to make projects pencil. Understand how lenders and equity partners are adapting to a volatile rate environment and evolving fundamentals.
  • Gain insight into the changing political climate in New York with new Mayor Zohran Mamdani and what this means for population trends, rent stabilized apartments and developer incentives.
  • Hear how to capitalize on zoning reform changes as well as how to approach the difficulties around wage requirements for buildings over 99 units.
  • Explore the latest trends in unit design, tenant preferences, and suburban expansion that are reshaping the market’s demand profile.
  • Network with the city’s most influential multifamily leaders — from institutional owners to emerging operators.
  • Join us as we unpack what’s next for New York’s multifamily market — and the strategies it will take to build, invest, and thrive in 2025 and beyond.
