Overcoming Obstacles: How Project Stakeholders Continue to Advance Projects in Tough Times

Project stakeholders at every level are dealing with numerous obstacles to getting new projects off the ground in the current market. These hurdles include, but are not limited to, volatile construction and debt markets, surging interest rates, soaring construction costs, shifting demand for office and housing, and an evolving regulatory and tax environment. While these impediments are no secret to those in the real estate development industry, the real unknown is how to maneuver around these obstacles in order to continue to advance projects during tough times.

 Join us for a timely discussion into how certain project stakeholders are solving these puzzles and continuing to start new projects, even in what some have called the worst real estate market in decades.
