In this episode of the Neighborhood Ventures Podcast, Bart Diehl sits down with the Investor Relations team — Kyle Macdonald and Nick Jackson — to cover three big stories shaping the Valley. We kick off with ASU's run as the nation's most innovative university and what that means for talent retention and housing demand in Tempe. Next, we dive into the $850M redevelopment of Metrocenter Mall and its potential to transform the I-17 corridor. Finally, we look at Phoenix's light rail expansion and why transit-oriented development is key to affordable housing and future multifamily growth. Whether you're a Phoenix native or an out-of-state investor, this conversation highlights why the Valley remains one of the most exciting real estate markets in the country.
