Some 2, 700 apartment units are in various stages of construction among those cities. Some are recently completed and some are being built in phases.  That is a stark contrast to the near zero multi- family construction in 2010 in metro Boise.

Locally, many developers have settled for the common denominator of sets of fourplexes with the occasional six-, eight- ...

(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.

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...
