Fifth Wall’s Post

Fifth Wall CEO & Chief Investment Officier Brendan Wallace will take Blueprint's Main Stage with Lineage Co-Founder & Executive Chairman Kevin Marchetti! They'll be discussing "Redefining Real Estate," which Lineage did so successfully to the cold storage and logistics space. This conversation comes as an exciting time, as Lineage is fresh off their $4.4 billion IPO, the largest of the year. #realestate #proptech Blueprint: The Future of Real Estate

👩⚖️ The U.S. Department of Justice filed an antitrust complaint against RealPage, Inc. for its algorithmic pricing technology. The lawsuit comes at a time when the cost of living for renters is higher than ever. RealPage's multifamily pricing technology covers about 80% of the market. Does this software facilitate collusion between landlords, or are they just a scapegoat for a separate problem? #proptech #realestate

The term "proptech" will evolve to mean more than just software for the real estate industry to also include built world climate technology. Our CEO & CIO Brendan Wallace says that this is not something he would have said a few years ago. In fact, in the early days of Fifth Wall's inaugural Climate Fund, we clearly divorced our climate tech and proptech strategies and ran them as separate pools of capital. But as we've evolved we've realized it's getting very hard to disambiguate the two, and it's impossible to be a credible proptech investor without also investing in climate tech, and vice versa: if you're investing in climate tech for the real estate industry, you need to have a deep understanding of proptech: real estate software and how the digitization of real estate works. #realestate #proptech

The "S" in ESG, is often overlooked in commercial real estate, despite its importance in engaging tenants and fostering a sense of community. However, companies like Amazon and Ivanhoé Cambridge prioritize Social strategies, recognizing that vibrant communities can drive value and enhance tenant satisfaction. According to Fifth Wall portfolio company VTS, studies show that buildings with strong "E" and "S" contributions experience higher tenant retention rates, demonstrating the financial benefits of ESG investments. #realestate #ESG
