| 2:00 PM - 2:45 PM | View from the Top: Developer, Owner, Investment Trends Midwest markets have been among the leaders in annual rent growth for the past few years, attracting investors and developers. Find out what the long-term outlook is for sustaining this level of performance, where the most active sales and development markets can be found, whether urban or suburban is the better bet for growth and what kinds of projects are in demand. Key themes in 2025 include making workforce housing pencil out as value-add or ground-up product, the appeal of mixed-use development and the viability of build-to-rent single-family home development in the Midwest.

| 2:45 PM - 3:00 PM | Networking Break |
| 3:00 PM - 3:45 PM | Dealmaking: A How-to Guide for Buying, Selling and Financing Multifamily investing is becoming competitive once again as sellers adjust their pricing expectations and buyers come off the sidelines. Nonetheless, the equity and underwriting parameters of the past two years have yet to revert to pre-pandemic norms with further rate cuts not expected until late 2025. Panelists will discuss current strategies for investing and selling as well as lining up debt and equity.
|
| 3:45 PM - 4:30 PM | Beyond Amenities: Attracting and Retaining Tenants Apartment deliveries are expected to taper off next year; until they do, owners of both new and existing properties are in competition to attract new tenants and keep the current ones. Shift to remote work has changed renters’ expectations for amenities. Winning means doing more than incorporating (or retrofitting) the newest amenities. You’ll learn from our experts about best practices in construction, design, and operations and how to deliver what tenants want while keeping operating margins positive.
