Today’s economic climate is challenging 50+ housing professionals. Find out from our expert panel of builders how they are adapting and streamlining their businesses to cope with a complex market — from getting the financing, to dealing with the glut of inventory, to nudging hesitant boomer buyers off the fence and into new homes. Panelists will explain how they are making deals and staying afloat when others are struggling, and unveil how they are planning ahead to pounce, right before the market turns. This session features national builders as well as small- to mid-size builders who are persevering through a down cycle and emerging stronger than ever. In addition, nationally- recognized market researcher Tim Sullivan will share his insights on the direction of the active adult industry.
