HFO-TV: Commercial Real Estate – Portland Trends with Joe Cortright of City Observatory

HFO partner Greg Frick discusses the Portland apartment market with economic and housing analyst Joe Cortright. Cortright argues that Portland is disincentivizing the construction of new housing — the opposite of what is needed to create affordable housing.

Cortright contributes to City Observatory, which is a virtual think-tank which uses economic data from the 50 largest urban markets in the U.S. City Observatory in its coverage of housing, economic development, transportation, and equity. The website includes daily commentary.
