Why multifamily modelling rarely needs Argus as opposed to office, retail, etc?
Any particular reason?

All that is out of the picture with multifamily. I dont model multifamily and hotel but I imagine the main components are cyclicality and expense forecasting/mgmt for repairs.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}]
