21 How to Make Office-to-Housing Conversions Work With heavy interest rates, higher cap rates and more employees working remotely, office holders need to evaluate conversions. As office building abandonment continues to increase, the need for office conversion is apparent now more than ever. This program will discuss the office market history and focus on the future of office conversions. Through floor plans, site plans, sketches and renderings, learn the features of a successful office conversion and how you can make them work for your business. Flexible Amenity Spaces: Design for Now & the Future In the amenities race, how can your property stand out without overspending and potentially become obsolete five years down the road? The answer: A building floorplan designed to accommodate flexibility from the start. Multiple space plan examples reveal how to incorporate future amenity space flexibility into multifamily properties.
