INTRODUCTION BY GRI

The pandemic has halted all markets, and residential is no exception. As COVID-19 halts construction activity and quarantines are prolonged, the question remains as to how the sector will transform trends, prices and demand. This eMeeting will gather real estate players from all over Central America and the Caribbean to discuss the opportunities, threats and challenges developers and investors have spotted.

How will the consumer needs and trends for housing products change after COVDI-19?

What housing segments are the best and worst performing at the moment and how will this differ once the market stabilizes?

How has the pandemic impacted project construction and licensing in each country?

What will happen to social housing and subsidy programs from the government?

What role will multifamily for rent play after this crisis and what new trends will arise for rental housing?

How has financing been hit by the pandemic and what options exist for both developers and house buyers?

What has been the impact on the construction supply chain for residential housing and how are developers adapting?
