By contrast, the urban market recently tied with Phoenix for the fifth-highest vacancy nationally. Vacancy had been increasing in downtown Portland, but the rate of negative absorption is starting to moderate. JLL anticipates the numbers will turn positive in 2025. Urban/Downtown Market Green-Shoots Rising The revitalization of downtown is making significant progress thanks to efforts by both local government and private-sector groups.

Matt Williamson Pavlov Media FutureProofing Quote from article

In the rapidly evolving landscape of multifamily technology, owners and operators face a critical challenge to staying competitive. As demand for high-speed internet and robust connectivity grows, it is essential to adapt quickly. However, constantly upgrading infrastructure can be prohibitively expensive and time-consuming.
