In 2010 we are seeing strong competition for certain desirable properties, both in terms of buyers and willing lenders - however this doesn’t seem to extend beyond the best located, well-leased or well-occupied deals yet. The Boston suburbs currently represent a broad spectrum, with some properties commanding strong pricing and others with weaker fundamentals lacking for attention. So what is happening in the office, retail, hotel and multifamily sectors in 2010? Which sub-markets have turned the corner on recovery and which have not? What factors will help, and can they be controlled? What situations are financeable now? Will 495 ever rise again? Come learn where we are in the cycle from the experts as they cover these sectors, as well as discuss the prospects for pricing and financing as we move forward.

From a national overview to the local perspective, join REFA for its Annual Suburban Conference where our knowledgeable panel will answer these questions and more.
