Join hundreds of apartment industry owners, investors and developers on
May 12, 2022 in Manhattan for the
New York Multifamily Summit (NYMS).

After twelve years of successful events, NYMS has become a reliable annual gathering for local and national multifamily investors, operators, developers and other professionals active in the New York City metro area apartment industry.

This year, we look at the New York apartment industry as a contrarian play for investors, weighing the chronic undersupply of units in the region against the current headwinds that make the short term outlook a bit murky. We tackle how the pandemic has changed things, including how units and properties should be designed and managed, as well as how investor appetite, risk tolerance and type has changed.

We’ll also look at some of the more noteworthy development projects as well as the bread-and-butter buy-and-renovate value add strategies that have been hamstrung by recent rent laws. Affordability and attainable housing remain extremely important topics to be addressed at the conference, alongside the market for luxury condos and everything in between.
