In this episode of the HFO Multifamily Marketwatch, HFO Investment Real Estate's Senior Research Analyst Mike Pierce discusses the housing shortage in Oregon and the potential of office-to-apartment conversions as a solution. Mike delves into the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the commercial real estate market, with a significant increase in remote work leading to a high rate of office vacancies, and specific efforts in Portland to support office-to-rental conversions.

HFO’s podcasts are sponsored J.R. Johnson, specialists in multifamily restoration and repair, and by Gantry Inc., the country’s largest independent mortgage banking firm focused exclusively on commercial real estate.
