Keynote: Rates, Repricing & Global Flight: CRE’s Macro Reset in 2025

How the Fed’s tightening, geopolitical shocks, and inflation volatility are forcing capital to rethink U.S. real estate.

With the Federal Reserve raising rates aggressively — pushing the 10-year Treasury to 4.5%+ — and inflation still running hot, CRE investors face an unprecedented repricing of risk. Add to that mounting geopolitical tensions disrupting cross-border flows, and gateway markets like NYC and San Francisco are in flux. This session cuts through the noise to reveal where capital is moving and why.

Key Questions:

  • How are institutional investors recalibrating their exposure to high-priced gateway markets under rent control and zoning pressures?
  • What’s the real impact of geopolitical risk on global capital flows into U.S. real estate?
  • How are investors balancing inflation hedging with rising financing costs?
  • Are capital rotations favoring secondary markets or niche asset classes—and why?
  • What does the new "normal" for cap rates look like post-rate hikes, and how will this reshape portfolio strategies?

  • Preferred Equity & Rescue Capital: How hybrid capital is being structured, taxed, and litigated — identifying stealth risks before they become headline losses.
  • Valuation Risk & NAV Manipulation: When standard asset mark methods break down, how are allocators adjusting diligence to avoid costly traps?
  • The 1031 Exchange Under Siege: Legislative attacks on this key tax-deferral tool and the latest hedge strategies keeping deferred gains intact.
  • Incentive Compensation Overhaul: Deferred comp, clawbacks, and waterfall revisions — how fund economics are shifting and what investors need to watch now.
  • Cross-Border Tax Planning: Navigating the new global tax regimes impacting international real estate investments and structuring.
  • Debt Restructuring & Insolvency Risks: Complex negotiations and legal frameworks protecting capital when debt markets seize up.

Panel: New York, New Rules: Urban Risk, Repricing, and the Future of Core Markets

Decoding how rent control, capital stack stress, and evolving use cases are rewriting NYC’s real estate playbook.

New York’s commercial real estate faces a perfect storm: rent control expansion threatens cash flow, office vacancy rates hit historic highs above 20%, and capital stack pressures force owners to rethink refinancing strategies amid tighter credit. This session digs deep into the forces reshaping the city’s core markets—and what savvy investors must know to stay ahead.

Key Questions:

  • How are developers and asset managers recalibrating underwriting models in the face of expanded rent control?
  • What innovative financing structures are emerging to manage debt maturity walls and capital stack risk?
  • Can office-to-residential conversions create viable value propositions in the current market?
  • How is global capital recalibrating exposure to NYC amid uncertainty on policy and demand?
  • What operational and ESG factors will define the resilience of core market assets in the next 3–5 years?

Panel: Tightening, Dislocation, and Opportunity: Debt Market Survival in 2025

The capital stack is cracking. Who’s still lending—and on what terms?

With $1.5 trillion in commercial real estate debt maturing by 2026 and traditional lenders pulling back, borrowers are facing a ruthless reality: valuations are down, rates are up, and liquidity is drying up.

  • How are borrowers renegotiating existing debt—and what do lenders realistically accept?
  • Are debt funds truly stepping up, or just reshuffling terms on their own exposures?

Panel Capital Rotation: What’s Out, What’s In, and What’s Still Overpriced

Navigating the seismic shifts in asset allocation as capital flows reshape U.S. real estate markets.

The great capital shuffle is underway. As rising interest rates and economic uncertainty force a re-evaluation of risk, investors are pivoting away from overheated sectors and hunting new opportunities.

Key Questions:

  • Which asset classes are shedding investor favor, and which sectors are emerging as the new “safe havens”?
  • How are investors navigating the conflicting signals between market softness and persistent capital inflows?
  • What role do niche sectors—like life sciences and data centers—play in portfolio diversification today?
  • Where do valuations still look stretched despite market headwinds, and how should investors position for potential corrections?
  • How will demographic and technological trends reshape capital allocation in real estate over the next decade?
