Message From the Chair

Apartments and condominiums are an integral part of the housing industry, and NAHB Multifamily believes that it should be reflected at the NAHB International Builders’ Show. IBS isn’t just a single-family show; it has plenty to offer for developers, builders and others involved in multifamily housing. We invite you to come to Orlando to find out for yourself.

Education is a cornerstone of IBS, and we have assembled a compelling assortment of educational offerings. Don’t miss NAHB Chief Economist David Crowe and executives from the country’s top multifamily developers at the Economic Forecast & State of the Industry for Apartments and Condos program. Hear the industry’s leaders share their unique perspectives on the current state of multifamily, how they are addressing challenges and positioning themselves for the future. Among the 14 sessions are an overview of the capital markets, and topics such as acquisitions, design, leasing and sales, marketing, repositioning and technology. Novices also can learn more about how to get involved in multifamily housing through the four-part How to Get Started in Developing Apartments and Condos series.

Join us at IBS to capitalize on unparalleled networking with multifamily industry leaders at Apartment & Condo Central, the NAHB Multifamily’s official headquarters during IBS. Highlights include daily receptions and mixers, “Meet the Multifamily Experts” roundtables, special sessions on property managment and multifamily green building, and much more. We hope to see you in Orlando!

Gerald Kosmensky
Chairman, NAHB Multifamily
