— Multifamily Properties Quarterly — January 2015

CONTENTS

Letter from the Editor

W

ith charts and graphs con-

taining all kinds of facts

and figures spread out

on our office conference

table, I quickly realized

what a large and complex business

multifamily housing is, especially in

Denver.

Colorado Real Estate Journal is

excited about the launch of our

four new quar-

terly publications

– Office Properties,

Multifamily Prop-

erties, Property

Management and

Shopping Centers.

CREJ has long been

known for provid-

ing the informa-

tion our readers

need to make the right decisions for

their commercial real estate clients

and growing their businesses.

Multifamily Properties Quarterly

provides an in-depth look at the

apartment and condominium com-

munity with trends, market fea-

tures and profiles from the best in

the industry.

New construction is creating a lot

of excitement and a general buzz

around the multifamily market

in Denver. Throughout this issue,

you’ll hear from many experts as

they discuss the reasons for this,

what they think will happen in 2015

and how they view the overall mul-

tifamily market.

The Colorado multifamily market

is seeing its highest level of growth

in a decade, so the timing of our

first issue of Multifamily Properties

couldn’t be better. Not only is the

supply side increasing, with thou-

sands of new units scheduled for

completion in 2015, but apartment

rent growth levels also are increas-

ing. With so many new products

and so much new construction in

great locations, it’s an exciting time

in the multifamily market.

Thank you to everyone who

contributed articles, sat down for

interviews (with me) and helped me

understand the multifamily realm

of real estate. Without the help of

these industry experts, this special

section would not be possible.

As you read this publication,

please don’t hesitate to contact

me with thoughts or ideas for

articles that you would like to see

in upcoming issues of Multifamily

Properties Quarterly.

Thanks for reading,
