Join us in December

We are excited to announce the return of the Marcus & Millichap / IPA Multifamily Forum: New England for its fourth year. On December 13, New England’s most prominent developers, investors, owners, and operators will come together to take a deep look into how one of the country’s hottest real estate markets can manage growing challenges and keep the business booming.

Don’t miss the opportunity to hear from some of the market’s most important players including a special fireside chat with Chuck Leitner, CEO, Berkshire Group and a exclusive discussion on one of the city’s biggest developments, Suffolk Downs, with Tom O’Brien Founding Partner & Managing Director and Doug Manz, Partner, Director of Development of HYM Investment.

New This Year:

  • Closed-door, peer-to-peer roundtables. These sessions bring together small groups of 20 to 25 hand-picked decision makers for candid conversation around shared challenges and ideas. Roundtable groups include multifamily CEOs and company leaders, operational leadership, developers and value-add investors.
  • Focused content sessions that address specific timely pain points and opportunities including construction costs, mega-projects impacts on infrastructure, co-living, acquisition opportunities, suburban transit-oriented development, financing, deal flow and more.
  • One-to-one meeting app which allows you to see who specifically is attending and book 15-minutes of face time with them at a specific meeting area on site. Given that the event is curated to include mainly senior decision makers from multifamily principals and investors, the opportunities to meet with operating or capital partners are numerous.
  • A renewed focus on technology and innovation to help multifamily operational leaders improve the bottom line in an increasingly competitive environment, through the implementation of software and building-level technology solutions.
