The Impact of Climate Change on the Commercial Real Estate Industry: What You Need to Know to Protect Your Investment

A complimentary webinar
December 10, 2014 • 1 PM ET

Brush fires, hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes. The apparently increasing threat of climate-related disasters is a growing issue for commercial real estate assets. But how proactive is the CRE community in preparing and responding to these disasters? And, ultimately, when Mother Nature strikes, who pays? A recently published national survey of developers, owners, investors and managers took an in-depth look at this issue, and in this exclusive webinar event, a panel of experts discusses the far-reaching implications of the findings for commercial real estate practitioners.

Critical issues for discussion include:

  • The programs commercial real estate executives institute to guard against natural threats and protect life and property;
  • The impact of climate on investment/development decision-making;
  • The value practitioners put on government assistance programs;
  • How the costs of emergency preparedness are handled by the real estate community;
  • How the issue of liability is treated; plus
  • Your questions answered in real time.
