Stacy Hunt of Greystar moderated the Houston Apartment Association ’s State of the Industry breakfast last week. Hunt is a former president of HAA and the Texas Apartment Association . HOUSTON – Houston’s multifamily industry will have a lackluster 2017 with upscale Class A properties as the weakest sector. That’s the word from the Houston Apartment Association ’s State of the Industry breakfast last week. The worst multifamily problem spots are Class A properties in Montrose, Downtown, the Galleria area and the Medical Center area , says Bruce McClenny of Apartment Data Services . Weak job growth , the energy downturn and heavy multifamily construction activity – some 58,000 apartment units were built over the last three years – created the weakness in Houston’s Class A market, McClenny says. “We still have too much supply,” McClenny says. Allied Orion Group will complete four multifamily communities this year, said COO Ian Douglas , but he’s encouraged by the fact that oil prices ...

I just finished my all-new DAVOS portfolio that includes the following best-in-class REITs: Digital Realty (DLR), American Tower (AMT), Ventas, Inc. (VTR), Realty Income (O), and Simon Property Group (SPG). As a reminder, the DAVOS REITs were picked because of their high-quality attributes and most importantly for their dividend repeatability. While these REITs do not represent all of my favorite picks, they embody a diversified basket that serve as a proxy for robust dividend growth in the REIT sector. I’ll be honest, the last pick was the hardest. It was easy for me to select DLR, VTR, O, and SPG – because these four REITs have scale, experience, and muscle – all essential elements of durability. However, I was torn between the last pick, debating most of my Saturday as to whether I would go with American Tower or AvalonBay (AVB). I was really leaning to go with AvalonBay, but I decided at the last minute to include American Tower . It was a tough call, but after reading this ar...
