Join us for our second District Dialogues event of the 2022–2023 season, where we will explore the many factors affecting today’s housing market. Whether you’re a realtor, potential homebuyer, loan officer, renter, property investor or local business leader, you’ll walk away with a better understanding of recent housing market trends and what they mean for the broader economy. During the session, you will hear from leading industry experts on:

• Why housing costs rose dramatically during the pandemic
• Why affordable housing is so difficult to find
• What rising interest rates mean for both buyers and renters
• How today’s trends influence people’s decisions about where to live
The Highs and Lows of the Housing Market is the second session of the 2022–2023 District Dialogues series. The series is intended to bring experts and community members together to discuss today’s most pressing economic topics. We encourage you to come to all three sessions in the series, but you are also welcome to attend the individual sessions that relate most to your interests and work with your schedule.
