🏢 The future of real estate investing is changing. Are you ready? Basic ESG checklists are no longer sufficient for due diligence — they just don’t get the job done. Investors who fail to quantify transition risk (as well as opportunity) or price in the capital needed to mitigate that risk, are exposing themselves to: ⚠️ Avoidable BPS fines & brown discounts ⚠️ Escalating energy costs ⚠️ Higher risk of stranding & obsolescence ⚠️ Worse exit outcomes (higher cap rates & fewer buyers) But how do you actually integrate decarb into your investment strategy in a way that drives value, mitigates risk, and prevents obsolescence? Join 🏢 Christopher Naismith, CEO of Audette, for a candid, in-depth conversation with two leading real estate investors who have tackled this head-on to future-proof their portfolios: 🎙 Katie Cappola – VP of ESG, Madison International Realty 🎙 Emily Hanna – Managing Partner, Crown Realty Partners Whether you’re in sustainability, asset management or capital markets, this one’s a must-watch! 📌 Register now: https://lnkd.in/eX7kmUUk 💡 Have questions you’d like our speakers to tackle?

🚨 New Webinar: Underwriting Decarbonization in Due Diligence 🚨 “If you’re not integrating decarb into your financial model, then it’s immaterial and you’re unfortunately just virtue signaling.” Shoutout to Thomas S. for his 🌶️ remarks at IMN a few weeks ago Putting this into practice is easier said than done, and decarb has been a notoriously “squishy” thing to underwrite. These are topics we cover in our upcoming webinar: How do you actually integrate decarb into your investment strategy in a way that drives value, mitigates risk, and prevents obsolescence? How and where in the financial model should it show up? How do asset managers think about the ROI of decarb? And assuming you can actually integrate decarb into the capital plan, how do you ensure follow-through post-acquisition? Join 🏢 Christopher Naismith, CEO of Audette, for a candid, in-depth conversation with two leading real estate investors who have tackled this head-on: 🎙 Katie Cappola – VP of ESG, Madison International Realty 🎙 Emily Hanna – Managing Partner, Crown Realty Partners 🔥 What you’ll learn: • Why decarbonization is becoming essential at the time of acquisition • How investors are integrating decarbonization into underwriting and financial models • The impact of tenant expectations, brown discounts and “next buyer” considerations • Strategies for ensuring post-acquisition accountability and follow-through 📅 Spots are limited—secure yours today! https://lnkd.in/eX7kmUUk Date: March 13, 2025 Time: 11am-12pm PT | 2-3pm ET #Decarbonization #Sustainability #ESG #CRE #SustainableFinance #SustainableInvesting

We're proud to support the circularity movement and have Ethan Gilbert, LEED AP from Prologis bring our hot pink "A" balloon home to his daughter. 😂 It has since found a second life and higher calling. IMN, over and out. We'll see you in July!

🏢 "It's not about uniform reductions but strategic impact." says Jill Brosig as she dives into our nuanced approach to achieving ambitious decarbonization goals across a diverse real estate portfolio. In this enlightening segment, Jill explains: • Why a blanket strategy of 70% reduction across all assets isn't our goal. • The importance of analyzing the portfolio to identify key opportunities for significant impact, focusing on the 'problem children' first. • How targeting specific properties with the greatest potential for improvement ensures we maximize our resources and achieve more substantial reductions in carbon emissions. Jill’s strategic insights offer a roadmap for real estate professionals looking to navigate the complexities of large-scale sustainability goals effectively. If you’re involved in property management or investment, this discussion is a must-watch to understand how targeted actions can lead to substantial, sustainable outcomes. 👉 Watch the full webinar: https://lnkd.in/gb7SAVUm #RealEstateSustainability #Decarbonization #PropertyManagement #StrategicInvestment #RealEstateIndustry

Dive deep into this compelling discussion with Mauricio Serna, as he explores the crucial role of decarbonization in the real estate sector from our recent webinar. In this insightful segment, Mauricio discusses: • The transformative impact of sustainable practices on the real estate landscape. • How adopting energy-efficient technologies and strategies can drive economic and environmental benefits. • The necessity for the industry to evolve to meet both investor expectations and global sustainability goals. This session is a must-watch for anyone in the real estate field looking to understand the significant advantages of integrating sustainability into their business strategies. 👉 Watch now: https://lnkd.in/gb7SAVUm #RealEstate #Sustainability #Decarbonization #InvestmentStrategies #IndustryLeadership

What if sustainability initiatives could make your acquisitions strategy even stronger? It should be as normal as your morning coffee. Yet... For far too many, it feels like winning the lottery. In a recent webinar, Mauricio Serna shared how his team integrates sustainability into their investment framework to drive both value creation and impact. By embedding data on electrification, energy efficiency, and other conservation measures into underwriting, they quantify value upfront—making a stronger business case for these initiatives. Rather than leading with carbon reduction goals, they focus on how these efforts improve returns and enhance capital deployment strategies. This proactive approach positions them to play offense in their investment strategy, ensuring smarter, more informed decisions for long-term success.

When you're managing 700+ assets, achieving a 70% carbon reduction isn’t about tackling everything at once. It's about prioritizing what matters most. In a recent webinar, Jill Brosig, shared how her team is tackling portfolio-wide decarbonization. Instead of aiming for uniform reductions across every building, they focus on high-impact opportunities—the "problem children" driving the most emissions. This strategy allows them to maximize resources, addressing inefficiencies where they’ll deliver the biggest returns first. It’s not about quick fixes or trade-offs but about building a thoughtful, scalable approach to meet ambitious sustainability goals.

Building Performance Standards (BPS) are shaking up the real estate industry—and ignoring them isn’t an option. For the first time, emissions are directly tied to operating income and property values. Cities like New York, Boston, and Seattle are enforcing penalties for non-compliance, and more jurisdictions are preparing to follow. Here’s the reality: ▶️ BPS moves portfolios beyond short-term fixes to focus on measurable, long-term carbon reduction. ▶️ It creates accountability, addressing the split incentive problem that has slowed progress for years. ▶️ The divide between future-ready buildings and those carrying “carbon debt” is widening. But the true opportunity of BPS lies in the action it inspires. By proactively aligning with these standards, portfolios can do more than just comply—they can lead: ▶️ Retrofitting and transitioning from fossil fuels also protects NOI, liquidity, and enhances asset value. ▶️ Early compliance strengthens resilience in a market increasingly divided by compliance. ▶️ Taking action now avoids compounding deferred costs and risks down the line. The challenge is clear—but so is the opportunity. The steps you take today will determine how your portfolio performs in a decarbonizing market.
