Willy sat down for the 18th installment of the Most Insightful Hour in CRE with renowned economist Dr. Peter Linneman – live from Chicago. Even with inflationary pressure, a looming election, and geopolitical tensions at the forefront, Peter insists, “economies, especially as big as ours, are far more resilient than we think.”

Where do Peter and Willy stand on some of today’s most important topics impacting the economy and CRE? Tune into the replay for an indepth discussion on niche asset classes and specialty sectors, whether they believe office patterns have fundamentally changed in the U.S., Peter’s take on the possibility of a recession, election implications on the economy, geopolitical tensions and GDP growth, PCE predictions, the Fed’s next move, what it will take to get back to equilibrium in the housing market, and much more.
