Corporate & Tax Partner Michael Wiener was featured in RE Business Online's Midwest Multifamily & Affordable Housing Business magazine's cover story "Tumultuous Exchange Tests 1031 Exchange Investors." While rising interest rates and high asset prices present challenges for apartment buyers, diminishing inventory is putting them under the gun to make deals.
Excerpt:
