Panel Presentation at Midwest Lenders Conference: Rent Trends in Section 8
John Doyle, MAI, presented at Midwest Lenders’ 2026 conference alongside HUD and industry professionals on Section 8 Rent and Renovation Trends.
The panel was moderated by Tony Love, SVP at Bellwether, and joined by:
Tom Davis, Director, Office of Recapitalization, HUD HQ
Michael Rossi, Managing Director, Enterprise Housing Credit Investments
Sylvia Davis, Asset Management, HUD Chicago Office
In today’s climate of rising interest rates, rising expenses, and increased investor demands, all parties in affordable housing projects are anxious to capture value.
Our panelists began by outlining the background on various HUD programs and their current statuses, giving context to the current environment in assisted housing. We then explored various trends in preservation and rehab; outlining both best practices and common pitfalls.
The topics discussed are of utmost relevance not only to affordable owners and operators, but to the lenders that underwrite and service the debt behind them.
