Multifamily Hiring Remains Strong Through Pandemic

Multifamily investment companies, as a whole, have not only decreased staffing during the pandemic but in many cases have actually increased hiring and recruiting. It may sound like an odd time to build a team, but many investment companies are anticipating investment opportunities through the recovery, and are building a staff to prepare for that time.

“CRE hiring has remained strong and steady even during the pandemic and amid stay-at-home mandates,” Kent Elliott, principal of RETS Associates, tells GlobeSt.com. “This may be surprising, however many companies have reasoned that because the economic downturn was sudden and created by a temporary driver, once lockdowns have been lifted the industry will begin to recover dramatically and benefit from pent-up demand.”
