Milwaukee's Moment: Why M&R Is Bullish On The Cream City

Multifamily & Affordable Housing Business



When Multifamily & Affordable Housing Business wanted mini market profiles of key cities across the country, we knew Milwaukee – just like its Brewers in the baseball post-season – should be in the lineup. Taylor Johnson coordinated a bylined article exploring the multifamily landscape in the Cream City for client M&R Development. In the resulting article, Anthony Rossi Jr., EVP of M&R, explains why Milwaukee continues to stand out as a compelling rental investment destination despite often being overshadowed by larger Midwest and Sun Belt markets. The article highlights the region's stable employment base, healthy occupancy, positive rent growth, access to Lake Michigan and measured development pipeline, all of which support sustainable multifamily performance. Rossi also shares how M&R's experience developing communities including 42 Hundred on the Lake, 2929 on Mayfair and its newest property, The Bluffs on Lake, has reinforced the firm's confidence in the greater Milwaukee region. The firm is even more bullish on Milwaukee rentals given the properties are managed by its management arm and fellow TJ client RMK Management.
