- The recent substantial decline in real estate values revealed REITs with properties under tremendous debt. According to Goldman Sachs, approximately $1.5 trillion in commercial real estate loans will come due by 2013, a substantial portion of which are at risk of default.
- Increasingly, builders in urban and suburban areas are constructing homes on “marginal” lots that may be adjacent to wildlife areas, waters or wetlands, resulting in conflict with wildlife preservation and increased construction timelines and costs.
