Fifth Wall’s Brendan Wallace On Spotting Real Estate’s Next Hot Tech Early
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. New York continues to bifurcate sharply: trophy office leasing at record rents, commodity Class B in conversion discussions or court-supervised processes. Rent-stabilized multifamily remains supply-constrained and tightly held. 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.
