In light of the increasing number of distressing tales within the CRE sector, highlighted by the recent WeWork statement, real estate leaders are left pondering: How can the demand for co-working spaces battle liquidity headwinds? What workspace specifications are companies looking for? How intensely will the market be impacted if WeWork goes bankrupt? And, perhaps most importantly, who will be prepared to step into both the refinancing gap and market void in this scenario - if anyone?
The paradigm shift to hybrid work has already drastically altered space requirements and given companies a licence to splurge smartly, opting for quality over quantity. Amidst this landscape, certain properties exhibit resilience, while a vast sea of stranded assets presents a stark reality.
Well, now the chickens are coming home to roost - with profound implications for investors eyeing opportunities and negotiating with lenders. Investors are on a double mission: cracking portfolio codes and keeping tabs on developers and city plans.
GRI Global Club invites you to join and contribute to an open discussion with your industry peers to assess this situation and hear perspectives from the USA, Europe, and Emerging Markets from across the world on how to navigate this escalating CRE Crisis.
The discussion will touch on
