As we like to say, we don’t have a crystal ball to predict the future; instead, we focus on the bigger picture to help us identify opportunities. We believe that the multi-family sector – long a bedrock of our real estate investment strategies – deserves investors’ attention in 2022.

Now, as we (hopefully) begin to come out the other side, the question becomes: how should an investor approach this environment? Across the board, real estate prices have been increasing, and multi-family assets are no exception. These higher prices have investors looking at low purchase cap rates. Certainly, these factors need to be considered; however, we also believe they should be put into context with what may be on the horizon for multi-family assets.    [ Read More](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/multi-family-real-estate-investing-covid-19-and-other-considerations) [READ MORE](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/multi-family-real-estate-investing-covid-19-and-other-considerations) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/multi-family-real-estate-investing-covid-19-and-other-considerations#comments-listing) August 04, 2021 ## [COVID-19's Impact on Housing Prices](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/how-covid-19-impacts-housing-prices) [Insights](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/insights) [News](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/news) [1031 Exchange](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/1031-exchange) [COVID-19](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/covid-19) [Coronavirus](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/coronavirus) [Due Diligence](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/due-diligence) The fallout from a Black Swan event, like the COVID-19 pandemic, can manifest itself in counter-intuitive ways. The economic devastation seen throughout the world in 2020 is undeniable; yet, amidst the havoc, we also witnessed one of the biggest booms in housing prices in U.S. history. According to the Case-Shiller National Home Price Index, which tracks price changes of single-family homes, housing prices rose 9.5% from November 2019 to November 2020. How does this happen while we’re simultaneously dealing with the worst pandemic in 100 years?

In light of the COVID pandemic, the IRS issued this notice to provide extra time to complete an exchange.  Certainly, I think we all were hopeful that by this time the worst of the pandemic would be behind us. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be the case.   [ Read More](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/the-july-15-exchange-deadline-is-almost-here) [READ MORE](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/the-july-15-exchange-deadline-is-almost-here) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/the-july-15-exchange-deadline-is-almost-here#comments-listing) April 23, 2020 ## [COVID-19 and Its Impact on the Commercial Real Estate Sector Part 3](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/covid-19-and-its-impact-on-the-commercial-real-estate-sector-1) [1031 Exchange](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/1031-exchange) [DST 1031 Exchange](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/dst-1031-exchange) [COVID-19](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/covid-19) [Coronavirus](https://blog.chicagoland1031exchange.com/insights-events/topic/coronavirus) *This is the third part of a series on COVID-19.

At times like these, it's important to remember that the impact of disruptions related to Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) depends on the impact to the asset that the DST is invested in.
