10. Conclusion
1. Should we jump back into the pool now ?
• Will NOI increases offset any increases in interest rates and cap rates ?
• Has the market been too conservative over the past 24 months ?
• What type of returns (IRR or COC) for apartment acquisitions ?
2. Debt
• Will Fannie/Freddie continue to fuel the market ?
• Is there a real risk that Fannie/Freddie will slow down, or even consolidate ?
• Will CMBS come back to save B and C grade properties market ?
3. What is ahead of us ?
• What keeps you up at night ?
