The Long Island market is not changing in a uniform way. Class A rents are increasing while Class B and C rents are decreasing. New supply is planned to capture the higher Class A rents, but what does this mean for the lower end buildings? How should zoning, local infrastructure planning, and housing policy evolve to meet this need? Take this opportunity to learn from an appraiser, a banker, a commercial real estate broker, and an affordable housing expert.

Looking forward to seeing everyone later today!
