EPS 269 - Nick Fluellen: What does the TOP TEXAS B&C apartment broker think these days?

It’s good to be the KING in Texas Apartment Brokerage. Nick recently earned the title Executive Managing Director for Marcus and Millichap. Nick and his business partner, Bard Hoover, are consistently the top producers for the company. Nick shares his thoughts on what he sees in the apartment market with a “significant reset” on the capital markets, interest rates, inflation, valuation, sellers’ expectations on value, the challenges today of selling 40–50-year-old apartments, and then having broker tour activity down almost 80% from last year. Yikes! Nick talks about the “green shoots” and the positive reflections that he is starting to see in the apartment market in Texas. What we like about Nick-- is that he doesn’t give you broker speak…that everything is “positive” all the time. He talks about the good and the bad. Listen to the KING.
