While the recession may have been severe for the apartment market, the recovery has been just as extreme, states Hessam Nadji, managing director, Research and Advisory Services, Marcus & Millichap. “There really wasn’t a group of markets that escaped the recession; conversely, there isn’t a group of markets that is being left out of the recovery,” he notes. “Today’s apartment market really offers something for everyone.”
