NMHC Recap [Multifamily Market Monologue]: David Moghavem Trion Properties

David just returned from NMHC — the National Multifamily Housing Conference — and breaks down what the conference really revealed about the state of the multifamily market. Beyond panels and presentations, NMHC is about sentiment. This episode dives into the vibes, the psychology, and the quiet shifts happening behind the scenes.2025 was a year full of near-misses: deals that almost traded, distress that never fully cleared, and pricing confusion driven as much by communication breakdowns as by valuation gaps. But something feels different now. Lenders are stepping back into the process earlier, sellers are more aligned with reality, and off-market executions are returning as a preferred path.David explores the growing geographic divergence between markets, why macro headlines suddenly feel irrelevant to operators, and how industry fatigue has turned into a kind of stability. The takeaway isn’t hype — it’s discipline. Clean trades over hero trades. Execution over speculation.This episode frames NMHC as the beginning of a healthier transaction cycle built on realism, alignment, and cautious optimism.www.dealflowfriday.comIG: @dealflowfridayX: @dealflowfriday
