Austin Student Housing Summit 2019 | Bisnow | 3 October 2019 | Omni Austin Hotel Downtown, 700 San Jacinto Blvd, Austin, TX 78701, USA

There is no question that Student Housing is one of the hottest CRE sectors, especially in Austin, TX. In fact, Student Housing has remained one of the safest and strongest CRE investments. Not only is there a massive student population, but it is expected to increase due to the appeal and quality of life that Austin offers. With so many new student-projects in the pipeline, it’s safe to say that we can expect incredible options for the growing student population of Austin. So how are developers differentiating themselves? Will demand stay strong? What are the challenges for student centered developments?

Join our all-star panelists as we dive deep into student housing capital markets and finance, housing of the future, and value-add opportunities.

What You'll Learn:
