Today’s international economic environment and commercial real estate markets create massive challenges on the local, national, and global levels, in stark contrast to the last five years of fast-paced activity. Capital sources are rapidly changing their underwriting standards and target investment criteria. This high-powered conference addressed the challenges that market uncertainty has created and provided strategies and insight on how to overcome them.
The WeiserMazars New York Commercial Real Estate Summit is the latest in a series of highly regarded conferences, previously hosted by Massey Knakal, powered by GreenPearl.
Featuring keynote speakers David Lichtenstein and Ian Schrager, the conference was comprised of industry leading speakers, including Steve Witkoff, David Weinreb, Marty Burger, MaryAnne Gilmartin, Christopher Schlank, Mike Maturo, and Carl Weisbrod, among others. Over 400 active CRE players participated on May 10 at the New York Athletic Club.
