Casden Multifamily Forecast

Office Buildings

The Casden Real Estate Economics Forecast is charged with analyzing and forecasting real estate activity in Southern California. The Forecast issues annual reports on the region’s office, industrial and apartment markets that reflect on recent developments in the region’s real estate markets during the past year and provide insights as to what might be expected in the next year.

Each spring the USC Casden Multifamily Forecast Report assesses conditions for multifamily product types. The analysis generates forecasts of annual apartment rents and vacancy levels for Los Angeles County, Orange County, and the Inland Empire. The report also offers insights as to which submarkets within these areas are likely to outperform in the near future. The Casden Report is released in conjunction with a conference featuring nationally regarded economists and senior level real estate executives providing their first-hand perspective on current market conditions.
