In a climate defined by constant uncertainty, investors are reassessing where to place their capital. According to Cary Clarke, CEO of Founders Development Company, "market volatility, shifting interest rates, and macroeconomic factors can actually advantage the real estate market." While no investment is without risk, the fundamental demand for places to live, work, and gather can position property development as an anchor for investors.
"Commercial real estate has always been a desired asset class," says Clarke. "But for a long time, only institutional players had access to these types of deals. That's changed dramatically in recent years."
