C.A.R.-Backed Nonprofit Sues San Francisco Over Limits on SB 79 Transit Housing
Why this matters
Land continues to behave as the highest-conviction long-duration bet in CRE. In supply-constrained luxury markets, replacement-cost-positive entitlements remain scarce; in growth-corridor exurbs, sponsors with patient capital are accumulating positions ahead of the next residential or industrial pipeline. San Francisco continues to clear office at the deepest discounts to 2019 basis seen in the cycle, while multifamily fundamentals have stabilized and life sciences in the Peninsula remains active. The trade is a basis call, not an income call, and continues to attract family-office and high-net-worth capital that can hold through the cycle.
