Kane County, in conjunction with Pushing the Envelope Farm and Northern Illinois Food Bank, are offering a free pumpkin recycling event in Geneva on Saturday, November 2

Saturday, November 2

Where:
Pushing the Envelope Farm at 1700 Averill Road in Geneva.
What:
We will be accepting pumpkins and squashes for composting right on a farm! It is very important to keep it contaminant-free; just like food scrap composting.

Emerging Trends in Real Estate 2020
Urban Land Institute and PwC release annual real estate report
|
|
Real estate investors face a changing world, with the rising risk of recession in the short term and, over the long term, a slower rate of economic growth in general. Despite anxieties, however, U.S. real estate is still a favored place for investors from all over the world to invest their capital, according to
Emerging Trends in Real Estate® 2020
, released by ULI and PwC during the Fall Meeting.
|
|
Over the next five to ten years, “Long-term economic growth is probably going to be slower—sustainable, but slower,” said Andrew Warren, director of real estate research for PwC and a coauthor of the report. “We look at the potential of 2 percent growth over the foreseeable future—five to 10 years.”
The report is available with a free subscription to PwC. Visit the report
