Allen Matkins/UCLA Anderson Forecast Survey Podcast

The recently published Summer 2025 Survey indicates that multifamily sentiment continues to be on a positive trajectory, and developers are looking more seriously at redeveloping office space into multifamily units. Yet, California’s housing shortage is an inescapable reality for many residents. Shawn Gehle, co-founder and principal of architecture firm OFFICEUNTITLED, talks through the opportunities and the latest trends in the sector with Allen Matkins Partner Spencer B. Kallick.

According to the Summer 2025 Survey, the industrial sector is moving in a positive direction across California, with demand growing faster than supply in both Northern and Southern California. Even tariffs or the threat of tariffs have not dampened enthusiasm, according to Michael Longo, senior vice president at CBRE. Allen Matkins Partner Spencer B. Kallick sat down with Michael to discuss trends in the industrial sector.
