Will Silverman of Studley Headlines Ivy Family Office New York City Luncheon
New York, NY (PRWEB) December 10, 2013 -- The Ivy Family Office Network hosted its December 2014 Single Family Office Real Estate Luncheon on December 5th with a discussion on “The 2014 New York Real Estate Market” led by Will Silverman of Studley.
According to Mr. Silverman, “For conservative long term investors, the safest and most appropriate place to invest in New York has historically been the Multi-Family marketplace. It is the only New York asset class where supply actually contracts - when the market is frothy and condo conversions occur. A more aggressive approach is in retail locations that have become legitimized by national chains. Those rents tend to move more dramatically than in any other asset class. Identifying the next locations that will come into favor is a massive opportunity.”
Moreover, “The big question for 2014 is whether the super high end condo market have enough depth for the increasing number of projects targeting this audience? People often wonder if we're building 1500 units for the same 150 buyers. There might be some truth to that, especially as some secondary locations attempt to attract prices only seen to date at premier projects."
