Though mixed-used developments aren’t immune to COVID-19-related disruptions, demand is likely to grow as the pandemic subsides.
The digital era has significantly altered the lifestyles and housing preferences of the average American. Those changes have dramatically shifted the real estate investments best positioned for success.
From economic shifts that have normalized dual-income families, to cultural changes that have created a society focused on convenience, multiple factors have driven a return to urban living. As a result, mixed-use communities (MUCs) that integrate residential and commercial space have become extremely popular. And in the wake of COVID-19, demand is only expected to increase.
In this new AFIRE Podcast, AFIRE sits down with Bryan Sanchez, Chief Investment Officer, and Hans Nordby, Head of Research and Analytics, at Lionstone Investments, as they share insights on the increasing demand for mixed-use developments during COVID-19.
