"One of the prime topics of interest is going to be what's happening in the multifamily market because that impacts other sectors," says Real Estate Media conference producer Jason Young. The conference will be held in the Biltmore Hotel at 1200 Anastasia Ave.

About 250 to 300 participants are expected to attend the half-day event, sponsored by Real Estate Media. It will be kicked off with a networking luncheon followed by a town hall meeting during which industry experts will discuss the latest trends in South Florida's real estate market.

With strong population and job growth, Florida's commercial real estate market continues to attract attention. But, while office vacancies continue to decrease and rents continue to rise, the cost of living has soared in recent years and affordability has become a major issue.
