Data

Data collected for SOMA is based on new construction of multifamily units (buildings with 5 or more units). The initial 3-month interview collects information on amenities, rent or sales price levels, number of units, type of building, and the number of units taken off the market (absorbed). Field representatives conduct subsequent interviews, if necessary, at 6, 9, and 12 months after completion.
