Student Housing - The Biggest Growth Opportunity in Multifamily

[Ryder Meehan]

Is Student Housing Investing the Biggest Growth Opportunity in Multifamily?

Thursday, August 10th we have a special treat for you! Neal Bawa, who's speaking schedule understandably opens up whenever his group is funding another project:), is going to come and teach us why, especially in today's market, he and his team of Multi Family experts are so excited about investing in Student Housing!

Student Housing has seen an explosive growth over the last 10 years, and the market is seeing tremendous interest from both institutional and Asian investors. Through his partnerships, own research and experience, Neal has build up a great deal of knowledge about this very lucrative asset class. Those of you that have seen him speak before will agree that Neal is one of the most engaging and best prepared speakers that we have had at our meetup.

What Will be Covered in the Presentation?

In this special lecture, which is free of charge and open to all VIG members, he will be covering "Student Housing Fundamentals". This presentation will assume zero familiarity with the topic and function as a primer. Come and expect to be entertained and learn the following:
