FCP® Vice President, Alecia Hill, was named the winner of the NMHC Young Guns Pitch Competition for Emerging Leaders at the NMHC Annual Meeting held in San Diego on January 31, 2024, winning the votes with an investment strategy focused on affordable housing in Indianapolis, IN. Hill was also named to the 2024 NMHC Emerging Leaders Committee, currently led by Peter Herbst, Portfolio Manager – Value Add Funds, Berkshire Residential; Courtney Crowder, Managing Director, Newmark; and Dan Campell, Vice President – Transactions, UDR.
Judges for the popular annual Emerging Leaders competition included David Carlson, CEO, EQT Exeter; Jay Parsons, Senior Vice President and Chief Economist, RealPage; and Melissa Pianko, Partner, InterCapital Group, LLC.
“As the critical need for affordable housing becomes increasingly income agnostic, the business case for increased institutional investment in affordable housing has never been more compelling and presents long-term differentiated, market opportunities in supply-constrained or otherwise underserved geographies nationwide,” said Alecia Hill. “The Young Guns Pitch competition was a unique opportunity to knowledge share with talented peers and senior leaders alike. NMHC’s Emerging Leaders program provides an engaging peer-to-peer network for real estate professionals 40 and under and continues to uplift professional development and next-gen industry thought leadership across our industry.”
