Weifield’s Chief Business Development Officer, Karla Nugent, is featured in this new Colorado Real Estate Journal (CREJ) article on the topic of labor shortages in construction — and will moderate a panel for the Denver chapter of Commercial Real Estate Women, better known as CREW, on the same topic, tomorrow (7/18) at the Ritz Carlton in downtown Denver!
Commercial real estate industry officials anticipate needing about 50,000 more qualified people in the trades during the next year — which is equivalent to the entire population of Littleton, CO.
“We are projecting another 50 percent increase in labor demand over the next year,” said Nugent.
