What our clients say about us
John Burns is our primary resource for up-to-date industry trends and has proven their unique value as a trusted partner in evaluating growth opportunities. When we started looking to expand our geographic footprint, there was no question who we would engage with. Working with John and his team was a great decision for our company.
Our first step on researching new BTR projects is to check John Burns market reports. It is the “level-set” we need to assess whether or not the project is aspirational or grounded in real-time metrics.
John Burns has been a significant resource for our teams across the Southwest region, assessing new business and evaluating existing developments. Their market-specific knowledge has been a great value-add for our local teams!
