Join us at the Marcus & Millichap / IPA Multifamily Forum: Southern California 2026 in Los Angeles on June 4, 2026. First held in 2012, the conference consistently brings together 500+ multifamily executives from across California, as well as national and regional multifamily owners, investors and developers active in California markets.
This year, we look at the new reality emerging after three years of sideways movement in the industry. Will 2026 be the year the apartment industry in California turns upward again? Asset & property management leaders are still in a crunch to look for solutions as they are squeezed between increasing costs and stagnating rents. Meanwhile, capital markets are still stuck in neutral, as it is unclear where interest rates will go from here, forcing owners, investors and developers to re-evaluate their capital strategies. Workouts and re-capitalizations are adding additional stress and perhaps opportunities for distressed sales. Meanwhile, developers struggle to keep active with an eye towards new starts that will deliver in 2027 and 2028 when deliveries are expected to be lower than average. Come connect with your peers to get the latest insights on capital markets, new development, operations, acquisitions & dispositions from market-leading apartment industry principals.
Join hundreds of fellow owners, investors and developers on June 4, 2026 at the Hilton Los Angeles Airport for the Southern California Multifamily Forum 2026 for a day of in-person learning, idea sharing, deal making and networking.

Networking Reception
Private Roundtables:
The PeerPod private roundtable is a closed-door, invite-only, off-the-record group conversation among 12 to 15 handpicked, invited executives. Led by a chairperson, the session is 90 minutes allowing for a candid conversation among peers to share information, compare notes and generate ideas on industry challenges. Topics are determined in the week prior to the conference and sourced directly from participants.
What participants get out of the Private Roundtable:
Participants love the roundtables because they offer an opportunity to get beyond the public information to a more in-depth solutions-focused conversation that is confidential. The goal is that everyone walks away a bit wiser with more tools in their toolbox, as well as some new or renewed connections. Private roundtables are more exclusive and include more senior executives. Private roundtable participants are considered “Featured Participants” and are listed in the event materials alongside other speakers.
Who can join a Private Roundtable:
Private Roundtable participants are selected in advance of the conference and require an invitation to join. Each roundtable participant must meet selection criteria of the specific roundtable to be considered for an invitation to that roundtable. If you do not meet the criteria, you can still gain access via sponsorship, pending availability. Sponsored spots on roundtables are extremely limited. Inquire with Samantha Williams at sam@greenpearlevents.com about joining a Private Roundtable.
