According to Miller Samuel CEO Jonathan Miller, author of the reports, “The general overview is the fourth quarter showed more activity, and more strength at the upper end of the market after being less active. Essentially what’s happening in a lot of these markets is sellers have been holding out for several years and now they’re more amenable to actual market conditions.”
