“Working with Will over the past several years has been a privilege. His diligence, intelligence, and high standards raise everyone’s game, and he excels at every task. Will is an invaluable member of the Norfolk Multifamily team.” - Jack Kearns, Multifamily Operations Manager at Norfolk Multifamily Cabinets & Countertops.

In the last 12 months what accomplishment are you most proud of? In the past 12 months I have been a part of more than 1,000 new and renovated apartments in the New England region. Four years ago, when I started my career at Norfolk, that would have shocked me. Today, with the help of a strong team, and partnered with the hard-driving GC’s of our area I believe that number will be only a stepping stone. 

How do you balance your rising career with your personal life? With two school-aged children at home and a jam packed schedule at work it is a challenge. Fortunately, my management team at Norfolk empowers us with the tools and processes needed to achieve results in the field. I take full advantage of new applications and technologies to drive productivity. Being able to work effectively at a jobsite, from home, or in the office allows me to complete tasks and still be a family man.

Investing in a falling rate environment - by Harrison Klein

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.

The 2024 CRE markets: “The Ups” (industrial) and “The Downs” (Boston class B/C office) - by Webster Collins
