Tweetable Quotes:

 

“Demographics are destiny in commercial real estate, so going to where people are moving is going to impact commercial real estate across the spectrum, regardless if you're doing single-family homes, multifamily, self-storage, etc.” - Brian C. Adams

 

“We think [how] we lived the last six months is how we're going to live the next six years, but the reality is probably somewhere in the middle. We can take a lot of positives that came from working from home and incorporate them into our daily life, but I don't think this is going to be a secular decline like we've seen in retail. I think the office is still gonna be a big part of our professional life moving forward.” - Brian C. Adams
