Emerging Trends in Real Estate is a trends and forecast publication with a 40-year history, and is the most highly-regarded and widely-read forecast report in the real estate industry. Emerging Trends in Real Estate, undertaken jointly by ULI and PwC, provides an outlook on U.S. investment and development trends, real estate finance and capital markets, property sectors, metropolitan areas, and other real estate issues. The report draws on formal and informal surveys of real estate executives, investors, developers, and market experts around the U.S., including survey responses from more than 1,600 real estate executives and personal interviews with more than 800 industry leaders. We assemble a panel of experienced real estate leaders to respond to the report and discuss the latest hot-button issues from the Northwest perspective.
