MBA president fires back on claims of poor FHA underwriting

Why this matters

Capital markets activity continues to be defined by the rotation from bank balance sheets to non-bank lenders.

For LPs, the allocation conversation has shifted decisively toward real estate debt, with equity allocations being deployed more selectively into operator-led platforms.
