Most investors will get Texas multifamily wrong in 2026
A room-only conversation with the developers and operators actually shaping the Texas market, featuring Jerry Katz, CEO of Premier Protection Insurance Services, speaking from the front of the room.
The old playbook no longer works in Texas.
The deals that closed in 2022 do not pencil the same way today.
Where are the real opportunities right now in primary, secondary and tertiary Texas markets?
Is the Dallas, Austin, and Houston supply story overblown, or are investors simply mispricing risk?
Which asset classes still pencil in today's rate environment?
How are the best Texas operators actually sourcing off-market deals?
How is insurance reshaping deal viability and valuations across the state?
The people who can answer those questions are not posting about it online. They are in this room.
Walk away with signal, not noise.
Real intelligence from operators making real decisions in Texas right now.

These are the operators investors watch when they want to know where the market is actually moving.
The insider perspective
you won't find anywhere else.
Jerry Katz is the CEO of Premier Protection Insurance Services.
He sits at the intersection of two forces driving Florida real estate right now:
Jerry sees firsthand how insurance is:
He is not moderating from the outside.
He is leading this conversation from inside the market, with visibility into the real factors impacting acquisitions, development, and long-term value.
"The investors who win in 2026 will be the ones who understand this market before the rest of the market does."
More than ever.
In a market like this, the gap widens fast.
The right people get sharper. The wrong people get louder.
This is where serious players come to pressure-test assumptions, hear what is really happening on the ground, and leave with better questions, better context, and better decisions.
This is not about attending another event.
This is about staying ahead of a market that is changing in real time.
Get in the room before
the market moves again.
The best opportunities rarely announce themselves.
They are identified early by people who understand the market better than everyone else. That is what this session is about.
Join Jerry Katz, CEO of Premier Protection Insurance Services, along with some of the most active names in Florida multifamily, for a conversation built around real deals, real risk, and real opportunity.
