KBRA Releases CREFC June Conference 2024: Day 3 Recap

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA releases its Day 3 recap of the CRE Finance Council (CREFC) June Conference 2024.

Key Takeaways

  • Commercial real estate (CRE) operators were encouraged to utilize federal resources to proactively work toward achieving net zero emissions goals.
  • Implementation of ESG regulations has been fragmented but increased disclosure requirements, data transparency, and thorough due diligence are potential remedies.
  • Green lending is growing, supported by the high costs of decarbonizing real estate. Lenders are hoping to standardize processes and establish broadly accepted key performance indicators.
  • Zoning is essential to supporting the construction and preservation of affordable housing projects and can help close the 7.3 million-unit shortage gap in the U.S.
