No End in Sight: The Development Outlook across West & Central Florida

Tampa and Orlando have been ranked in 2017’s top multifamily markets for growth. A booming local job market coupled with a national increase in urban dwellers, has turned these metro areas into some of the highest for population growth. But there’s increasing concern about the overbuilding and saturation of luxury Class A apartments. In addition, current renters’ demographic as well as psychographic changes require a shift in mindset. How can developers help people to live their best life? What value are you creating? Some of the biggest multifamily players in the central and west Florida markets, will address hot button issues such as:

  • Marketwatch: Understanding the depth of the current multifamily market and what’s coming down the pike.
  • Living Cities: Learning how to adapt to market shifts such as the increase in urban dwellers.
  • New Frontiers: How is new technology, such as remote cars and Amazon changing both the way you do business and the product you’re creating?
  • Strong Winds, Strong Impact: Learning how natural disasters and the resulting migration will affect the regional market.
  • New Development Strategies: Retrofitting, repositioning, rezoning, assembling sites, complicated mixed-use deals, and increasing density on existing sites, etc.

Speakers Include:

  • Jay Curran, SVP – Florida & Georgia Multifamily, Crescent Communiities
  • Larry Feldman, President & CEO, Feldman Equities
  • Harvey Hernandez, Chairman & Managing Director, Newgard Development Group
  • Charles Lockwood, Dean, USF Health

Communities and Amenities: A Holistic Approach to Property Management

For 2018 and beyond, effective property management requires a shift in mindset – building communities rather than just amenities. Renters are more finicky than ever. The rate at which technology is impacting resident experiences is increasing. How you adapt to changing technology will determine your success.

  • The Internet of Things (IoT): The latest trends in “Smart buildings.”
  • Virtual Reality: Utilizing technology for online leasing, 3D tours, and online chat bots.
  • Beyond the Business Center: Accommodating the new work-from-home set.
  • Work-life Balance: How to attract and retain Millennials – tenants and employees.
  • There’s a App for that: What are Generation Z’rs looking for in a community?
