The Multifamily Executive and Developer staff inspected, respected, and dissected the multifamily landscape from every which angle possible in a high-energy, high-value in-person event last week–October 13-15–at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. In an executive roundtable moderated by Multifamily Executive editor-in-chief Shabnam Mogharabi, three CEOs spoke candidly about how strategy needs patience while the economy sorts itself out.
For an update on all the key issues and perspectives, as well as access to slideshows from the show floor, here’s a line-up of reports from the Multifamily Executive and Developer conferences.
