Suburban Garden-Style Apartments Are 2022’s Comeback Kid By Emily Johnson, Taylor Johnson

verybody loves a good comeback story, whether in sports, the entertainment industry, politics or business. And there’s no bigger rental real estate comeback story in 2022 than that of the garden-style apartment – from both a new-build and investment perspective. According to Cushman & Wakefield, garden-style apartments had a $60 billion influx of capital in 2021, or 28% more than in 2017-2019, far outpacing other styles like suburban mid- and high-rises.
So, what exactly is driving this resurgence? Why now and not five years ago? To understand the present surge in garden-style rentals, we must first understand their past. From boom to backburner Garden-style apartments first rose to prominence stateside after WWI, influenced by England’s Garden City approach to urban development, which emphasized self-contained communities with lower-density residences, industry and COMEBACK (continued on page 10)

The construction industry has endured more than its fair share of challenges over the past couple of years, yet it’s as strong as some of the steel-framed buildings it erects across Illinois. “There are so many variables in the equation now. It’s unlike anything I’ve seen in my 31 years in the industry.It’s becoming harder and harder on a daily basis to solve the equation of a project,” says Jim Brucato, President and Co-Founder of Principle Construction. “It has created a much deeper teamwork approach to our projects.” CONSTRUCTION (continued on page 12)

apital is out there and developers are hunting it as the Illinois commercial real estate market rebounds from a challenging couple of years. “Financing requests have fully returned and in some cases exceeded pre-pandemic levels,” says Igor Zhizhin, Principal at American Street Capital, LLC. “Most interestingly, the appetite for acquisitions or cash out refinancing to acquire additional assets in the broad housing sector has outpaced many expectations especially in the context of a historically high lack of predictability and with most markets offering historically low cap rates. He adds that the combination of tangible inflation growth and the broadly believed impending interest rate increases appears to have been far more impactful in driving sizable finance request growth than any of the potential market risk factors. “Until there is a historically large and sustainable correction or the Federal Reserve publicly commits to a static, multi-year interest rate policy, the appetite for financing has very few deterrents in the near term,” Zhizhin predicts.

“Until there is a historically large and sustainable correction or the Federal Reserve publicly commits to a static, multi-year interest rate policy, the appetite for financing has very few deterrents in the near term.” Susan Blumberg, Managing Director and Senior Vice President with NorthMarq Capital, is also keeping an eye on floating rate loans, bridge loans, cap costs and swaps. “Volatility in the treasuries and rising interest rates will come into play with ability to
leverage transactions,” she says. “Refinance risk will be looked at closely and we expect the costs to increase until we see stability in the rates. FINANCE (continued on page 6)

The result is a very competitive lending market, which Associated Bank Senior Vice President and Senior Regional Manager Greg Warsek describes as a “borrower’s market.” Despite the pandemic, Associated Bank Commercial Real Estate posted a record year in 2021, closing $3.6 billion in new CRE commitments. That exceeded the pre-pandemic 2019 record of $2.9 billion. “We continue to be awarded a high level of loan requests at Associated Bank since we meet and exceed our customer’s number one need, which is ‘Certainty of Execution,’” Warsek says. “The current lending environment has maintained the strong commercial mortgage momentum of 2021 with the caveat of a more conservative posture towards floating rate structures and short-term products,” says Zhizhin. Borrowers, adds Blumberg, are expecting significant rent growth and will capitalize on that in the future. “We have also done our fair share of longterm permanent loans, seeking to lock in
those historically low interest rates,” she says. “Anyone who could refinance now to capture the rate has done so. This trend should continue as rates are still quite low.” Which sectors are fueling that demand? One answer came back consistently: multifamily. “Housing needs and prices have been rising to a level not seen in quite some time. Occupancy levels are at high levels, which support rent growth,” Blumberg says. According to Zhizhin, COVID established a consensus that outside of housing all other real estate sectors are highly susceptible to quickly turning obsolete. “Traditionally predictable asset classes such as retail, office, hospitality, and industrial all experienced substantial losses in the past two years across all markets. This has driven a retraction from many lenders toward more conservative loan terms and structures,” he says. “Even within the housing sector, subcategories such as student housing and senior housing have suffered during COVID with a reduced access to desirable lending options. The multi-unit housing sector, particularly affordable and workforce housing, have become the

primary focus for lenders because regardless of geopolitical or economic factors, housing tenants do not have alternatives to having shelter.” Zhizhin calls the large divergence between traditional commercial and housing in access to competitive, high leverage capital “impossible to ignore.” “Until COVID no longer impacts travel, employment, leisure, and purchase decisions we do not see a change in the virtually limitless appetite for investors and lenders to have housing as their primary commercial real estate asset class,” he says. Build-to-rent communities are an exploding asset class with significant pentup demand, according to Warzek, who also dubs industrial as a dominant market class. Blumberg agrees, adding that NorthMarq has seen an increase in construction in major distribution centers.
Our expertise is more than just walls, floors and ceilings. From amenity-rich luxury developments to affordable housing communities that don’t compromise on quality. We build the places where people want to live.

out-of-market operators to consistently secure competitive loan terms,” says Zhizhin. A relationship is also an important factor for Warzek’s team as they consider a loan request.
“Overall, this is a great time to finance properties when rates are low and the economics are positive. There is a lot of capital out there, chasing yield and good deals.”
“The pandemic created the shop-fromhome market and industrial space is in high demand at historically low vacancy rates,” she says. Developers looking for capital still need to be able to prove to their chosen lender that they have experience, solvency and income predictability. “Experience has become the biggest driver for most lending decisions rendering it very challenging for first time investors or
“Is the sponsor someone we want to do business with and develop a relationship over time (and vice versa)?” he says, adding that Associated Bank looks very closely at the sponsor’s expertise in its asset class and the financial strength and backing they bring to the transaction.” Blumberg adds that an evaluation of competition, new supply and trends in each market is also part of each loan’s assessment. Another caveat, she says, is that it is important for the borrower to have equity in each deal, unless they have a long-term basis in the property.
“Overall, this is a great time to finance properties when rates are low and the economics are positive,” says Blumberg. “There is a lot of capital out there, chasing yield and good deals. Properties are enjoying quite favorable performance and stable occupancy, all while growing rents. 2022 is a new year and predictions are for continued growth.”

How to Make a Successful CRE Career Pivot By Collete English Dixon, Executive Director, Marshall Bennett Institute of Real Estate
W
ith an estimated value of $33 trillion at the end of 2020 and a projected growth of 4-5% per year through 2030, the commercial real estate industry is global, growing quickly, changing rapidly and becoming more complex and diverse, which requires more professionals than ever before. New ways to finance investments, expanded inclusion of property technologies, and incorporation of data analytics and transaction analysis have emerged. Initiatives such as environmental, social and governance (ESG) and green building strategies are also elevating the industry.
and around that business discipline. For those in commercial real estate, an MSRE is really no different. It is important to see a pathway for the additional knowledge you need that can’t be gained “on the job” and how it can lead to career advancement and greater options Another post-baccalaureate option is a graduate certificate that focuses on specific knowledge and concepts. For example, a professional may be committed solely to learning the ins and outs of community development and how to partner with private investors, local authorities and community organizations to transform historically disinvested communities through development. In this instance, a graduate certificate in Real Estate Finance and Investment could be just what they need for this targeted knowledge and could be completed in only 12 credit hours.
So, to say the industry is in a dynamic growth mode is an understatement. This presents a number of exciting opportunities for not only those who are new to the industry, but also seasoned commercial real estate (CRE) professionals, especially those looking to make a pivot in their CRE career. Whether someone with a technical background like an architect is looking to switch to a career as a real estate developer, or professionals in accounting, marketing, and more “general” finance for a real estate firm are looking to support broader career growth in the industry, one of best ways for them to understand and gain knowledge about the “other side” of their new CRE path is to obtain a Master of Science in Real Estate (MSRE). Regardless of their role, CRE professionals should be comfortable with the industry’s terminology and concepts and how they apply to developers, investors, financiers, brokers and property managers. A MSRE provides not only the basic knowledge for understanding the business side of commercial real estate, but more importantly, it also equips CRE professionals to meet the new challenges of the industry. A deep understanding of market dynamics prepares a CRE professional to respond quickly and confidently, which can make the difference between getting a transaction done and missing out, whether that be a sale, purchase, lease or financing. While understanding the importance of issues like ESG and how they apply to developments and existing properties may be the edge a CRE professional needs in the competition for capital and tenants. Many CRE professionals have been fortunate to have a great mentor in the workplace, which can certainly help someone learn the industry. I know I did, and I’ll always be thankful to my mentors: Steve Smith, Carlos Hodge and Michael Welborn. But I believe the stronger and more direct path to comprehensive CRE knowledge can be achieved through courses taught by industry leaders skilled in the
MBIRE created two graduate certificate programs: Real Estate Finance & Investment and Real Estate Development to respond to the demand from professionals wanting to enhance their knowledge without having to make a two-year commitment to pursuing a graduate degree. At MBIRE, graduate certificates can be completed in two semesters, taking two courses each semester.
best practices within the many niches and distinct facets of CRE. At the Marshall Bennett Institute of Real Estate, an MSRE student learns all aspects of CRE from several legendary faculty members rather than relying solely on the guidance of a colleague. The Need for CRE Talent is Real Let’s go back to why we need so much new talent in CRE and why now may be the best time for you to explore a pivot within the industry. Since the end of the Great Financial Crisis in 2010, there has been an incredible amount of money raised and invested in CRE properties, and those portfolios need oversight and management. New platforms are being created and others expanded to attract additional capital and to manage and invest those funds, requiring talent to execute the strategies. The CRE industry is also facing a “great resignation” of sorts as many industry leaders who have helped with this growth
and expansion over the past 40 years are retiring, providing opportunities for upward movement in CRE organizations. To recoup the talent loss we’re experiencing, what we need is a new generation of energetic leaders ready to further develop and implement exciting initiatives like ESG, proptech and data analytics. Fresh perspectives on how to invest, manage and develop CRE assets will propel us forward as we continue to support, manage and service this burgeoning industry. But where will these new ideas come from? I know from experience that many of those who will lead the future of the CRE industry will have enhanced their preparation by completing advanced real estate degrees where they will have access to cutting-edge information and exclusive access to top dealmakers. Advanced Studies = Advanced CRE Opportunities Pursuing a business graduate degree is often most beneficial for those already in
Graduate-level studies in CRE, especially for industry participants who are not currently in the mainstream of the business, can support a better integration of the goals and concerns of clients because students gain a better understanding of the practical side of the industry that can be applied to design and feasibility conflicts or budgeting and financial returns. Additionally, for industry participants who are on the public side of community development and public finance, the CRE knowledge gained through the advanced degree will help facilitate a better understanding for negotiations with the private sector for partnerships and planning. Can one succeed in the commercial real estate industry without a graduate degree? Sure, but the rapidly expanding and evolving industry needs professionals with a broader and deeper understanding of the fundaments, challenges, opportunities and new frontier of commercial real estate. A highly educated workforce will help CRE firms grow and lead the industry into the future.

agriculture, plus greenspace, according to CUNY historian Joshua B. Freeman. One of the country’s earliest examples is Sunnyside Gardens, in Queens, New York. By the late 1960s, garden-style apartments were the most popular style of rental option in the suburbs, according to Samuel Paul in his book Apartments: Their Design and Construction and remained popular through the 1970s and 1980s. But as all commercial assets have their ups and downs, the suburban locales and lowrise architecture of garden-style apartments began to take a backseat from the ‘90s through 2020 as urban renewal took hold and developers followed renter demand to cities and suburban downtowns where walkability and density reigned supreme. From 2010-2020, Chicago’s Loop saw a 45% increase in residents and became not only the fastest-growing neighborhood in Chicago, but the fastest-growing downtown in the country, per a report from the Chicago Loop Alliance. The roaring ‘20s Then, the COVID-19 pandemic arrived and soon the same fundamentals that made garden-style apartments so attractive to renters 50 years ago, such as easy access to the outdoors and less density, suddenly became very in demand once again. But unlike in decades past, today’s garden-style apartments are more likely to resemble their high-rise brethren with Class A amenities like resort-style pools, commercial-grade fitness centers, design-

One developer that’s bullish about this multifamily sector is Wingspan Development Group. No stranger to building Class A rentals in suburban downtowns, Wingspan has two active garden communities that even in their early stages are performing ahead of expectations.
40 miles southwest of Chicago, Sixteen30 consists of 284 units in eight garden-style buildings with neo-farmhouse exteriors surrounding a 7,500-square-foot clubhouse and pool, the social center of the community with its great room, coffee bar, fitness center with smart technology and cardio training, yoga studio, bocce court, demonstration kitchen, pet spa and other luxe amenities. There is also a 24hour package room. Stylish interiors that all demographics of renters have come to expect from new construction include 9-foot ceilings, vinyl plank flooring, kitchens with stainless, quartz and ceramic tile backsplashes, space to work from home and more.
Located near the intersection of U.S. 30 and Highway 126 in Plainfield, Ill., about

recent years, but not much Class A rental – and there is a real appetite for it in the area, according to Chris Coleman, vice president of development for Wingspan. Demonstrating that demand, Sixteen30 surpassed the 30% leased milestone in just over three months and has waitlists for the next available buildings. “With the rise of remote work allowing renters to work from anywhere, suburban living has become highly desirable, and we don’t see that slowing down anytime soon,” Coleman added. Chicago’s suburban rental occupancy rose from 95.3% to 97.8%, and median rents rose 12.6%, between Q3 2020 and Q3 2021, according to Integra Realty Resources. “The new workfrom-home option has also prompted one of the biggest innovations in garden apartment design: creating coworking spaces in clubhouses, from shared tables and multiple scattered seating arrangements to dedicated private offices.” Similarly, Wingspan’s Hub13, being built with Batson-Cook Development Company (BCDC) in Oak Creek, Wis. – just off Interstate 94 and near the Milwaukee airport – is one of the first Class A rental communities in the area with resort-style amenities like a Zen Garden. It too, has a highly curated amenity package for renters by choice, including immediate access to an adjacent 11.2-acre nature preserve and wetlands. “That’s another change in recent years – how we’ve come to value outdoor space even more since the pandemic, for ourselves, families and pets,” Coleman noted. “By design, garden-style apartments offer more access to green space than you find

in a typical high-rise or even suburban downtown rental.” Seconding Coleman’s stance on the uptick in low-rise apartments is McHugh Construction, one of the Midwest’s largest commercial contractors with a concentration in high-end multifamily projects. “We’ve seen a lot of new bidding opportunities on low-rise apartment projects in the suburbs – certainly more than we saw pre-pandemic,” said Dave Bartolai, vice president of McHugh Construction. “Wood-framed apartment complexes are popular for wide-open land sites as well as stacked developments along Metra train lines.” Illustrating the demand from investors for low-rise apartments, one community McHugh built in 2017 for M&R Development – The Residences at Hamilton Lakes
in Itasca, Ill. – recently sold to investor JVM Realty Corp. for $99 million in January 2022. An upscale wood-framed garden-style apartment with 297 units in three four-story buildings centered around a clubhouse with resort-style amenities, The Residences at Hamilton Lakes offered “a perfect blend of luxury and location,” according to JVM. Investors smell sweet returns with value-add opportunity in garden-style Ryan Engle, senior managing director of Marcus & Millichap, focuses on multifamily investments across the Chicago suburbs and the Midwest. He has seen investor interest in vintage garden-style apartment rental properties with 100-plus units increase in popularity over the past two to three years, specifically in DuPage
County. The population flight back to the suburbs from the city due to COVID-19 helped spur this interest among investors, he said, but there was already an appetite for these types of properties right before the pandemic started due to such things as the uncertainty over property tax escalation in Cook County. “There’s currently a great need for workforce/essential housing, especially in the suburbs,” said Engle. “The garden-style apartment complexes built in the 1960s, ‘70s and ‘80s are solid investments because they traditionally have very low vacancy rates due to the demand for affordable rents, which are typical for these types of buildings compared to newer construction luxury properties.” The garden-style properties also provide value-add opportunities, which is a huge
draw for multifamily investors, according to Engle. “They want that value-add where they can go in and make upgrades to some of the units,” said Engle. “The short-term costs of these capital improvements lend themselves to longer-term gains by being able to collect higher rents in the future and retain long-term tenants. The risk tolerance for investors is low.” And in February, Ellyn Crossing (formerly Stonegate Apartments), a 1,155-unit vintage garden-style property in Glendale Heights sold for $137 million, making it the biggest suburban Chicago apartment deal ever, according to Real Capital Analytics, a New York-based research firm. Now that’s a comeback story.

“We preorder equipment immediately where possible and re-sequence parts of projects that would normally be in a different order,” Poticha says. “Clients hire us based on our experience and reputation, so being transparent about equipment delays is critical to maintaining strong client relationships.”
CONSTRUCTION (continued from page 1)
He says in prior years when these problems were infrequent, minor and more manageable, those involved in a project would work on their portion of it independently then come together in later stages of the project. For example, bankers and developers didn’t usually reach out to construction firms until several months in. “That’s totally different now. Now we’re deeply involved at the earliest stages of the project,” Brucato says. “As a team, we’re running various scenarios together until we reach one that works for them in the overpriced overall project. As difficult as today’s conditions are, they’ve forced every player in the project to come together much earlier to contribute to the solution.” Those solutions have sometimes culminated in creative results. As an example, Brucato shares that he has a manufacturing client who is growing rapidly. “As we work on plans for their facility, they said, ‘Hey, we have this extra land over here on our site. What should we do with it? What do you recommend?’” he says. Principle Construction brought the whole team together – the client, the broker and the architect – to brainstorm. Running through several scenarios, they decided the best solution would be to build a speculative building on that part of the property and lease it out until the client is ready to expand into it. “It seems relatively straightforward, but in essence, this manufacturer is now becoming a developer because of the need for space,” Brucato says. Stories like that illustrate the multi-faceted obstacles the construction industry is taking on right now, obstacles that seem to begin and end with supply chain issues. “Supply chain issues related to shortages and delays in the delivery of construction materials, as well as volatility in the prices of those materials, have affected our projects’ timelines and budgets,” says Justin Brown, President and CEO of Chicago-based Skender. Those variables are making it difficult for construction companies to obtain pricing that can be held from bid stage to procurement, adds Andy Poticha, Founder and CEO of Mosaic Construction. “We are experiencing never-before-seen lead times eclipsing 52 weeks on certain products like appliances,” he adds. “Other significant delays include the timing to receive materials to erect steel

“We have had to work diligently with our subcontractors and owners to establish a clear picture on price and schedules,. This is where relationships come in, allowing us to accurately gauge supply availability and get accurate pricing decisions locked in early, so that we can meet delivery needs.”
buildings which are hovering around 36to 40-week lead times.” Poticha asserts the skilled labor pool is tightening as well. “To keep projects moving forward, as experienced design/builders, Mosaic Construction has a variety of trade and supplier resources available to leverage and help find alternative solutions,” he says.” Just as the other firms we spoke to have, Graycor Construction Company Inc. attempts to mitigate that as much as possible in the project planning stage by purchasing long-lead items as early as possible. “We have had to work diligently with our subcontractors and owners to establish a clear picture on price and schedules,”
says President Tim Hanifin. “This is where relationships come in, allowing us to accurately gauge supply availability and get accurate pricing decisions locked in early, so that we can meet delivery needs.” Brown says Skender’s lean construction tactics are a fundamental part of its approach, which helps it achieve greater stability, reliability and efficiency – even during periods of uncertainty. “Our teams also develop multiple backup scenario plans, which enable us to shift seamlessly to plan B or C when we encounter issues like materials delays,” says Brown. For Mosaic, the goal is staying ahead of the curve as much as possible.
While Brown cites recent analysis by the Associated General Contractors of America to indicate prices of certain construction materials are no longer rising steeply like they did throughout 2021, he says some volatility will remain. “So our teams will continue to prioritize flexibility and work proactively to meet project needs,” he says. At the end of the day, the firms we spoke to said those client relationships are the most important part of weathering the supply chain storm. In many cases, those clients are deadline with similar issues within their own industries. “We sit across the table from clients that manufacture steel or plastics and they are coping with the same challenges,” says Brucato. “We’re in it together.” That understanding creates an environment within which, despite the many obstacles faced, clients and construction firms are moving ahead with projects. “Of course, construction professionals are in demand throughout the country, so within our Graycor team recruiting is very important. But having a plan for the growth and development of our existing team is even more important,” Hanifan says. “Growing our business by growing our people is very much the Graycor philosophy.” Skender is currently working on several new office projects, which are slated for completion in 2022, including a 15-story office building in the West Loop for Vista Property and an 11-story office building in Fulton Market for Sterling Bay. “With the two-year mark of the beginning of the pandemic approaching, lots of companies are eager to reopen their offices,” says Brown. “Some are also looking to build new spaces to reflect emerging workplace trends and future office needs, which is one of the drivers of demand for new construction.” Demand, it seems, is the one thing that hasn’t stalled in any way. Illinois construction firms will continue to overcome any obstacles that present themselves to respond to the needs of their clients.
