I recently attended the “9th Annual What’s Really Going On & Emerging Trends in Real Estate”  conference sponsored by PWC and the Urban Land Institute. PWC annually conducts an extensive survey of business people and academics in the real estate field, and then produces a comprehensive and detailed report on the subject. This year’s report, “Emerging Trends in Real Estate 2018,” is almost 100 pages long, and is packed with statistics and analysis of the real estate capital markets, trends, patterns, and outlooks for both investment and development.
