Walker & Dunlop, Inc. published the latest edition of its Multifamily Outlook, a quarterly report providing up-to-date discussion of macroeconomic trends and insights impacting the multifamily space. This Spring edition explores the booming single-family rental (SFR) and build-for-rent (BFR) markets -- which are positioned to grow faster than office, retail, storage, and hospitality.
