I had the pleasure of listening to Richard Knudsen talk about the apartment market in the Bay Area at the local IMF meeting. Richard is an extremely knowledgable veteran broker who is respected by many in the industry. Later I met with Richard to discuss the multi-family housing market and brokerage business in general. Below are the slides from his talk, please take a look at slide #6, it speaks for itself.
