The past 24 months have not been pretty for arrangers of commercial real estate debt, equity and finance.
The Fed's steady increase of interest rates has taken a toll on the cost of debt and tightening lending standards have made a difficult job all the harder. Now there is some relief on the horizon and in recent weeks, as rates have begun to stabilize, however, that doesn't necessarily mean a rainmaker's job will be that much easier. It can be a difficult landscape to navigate even in pristine economic and financial conditions, requiring financial acumen and a robust list of industry contacts.
The men and women who navigate these markets—either as lenders or as arrangers of debt and equity transactions—are built for such conditions and we can trust that their expertise will carry them through these evolving times. These professionals are utilizing their skills and industry knowledge to drive sophisticated deals across the finish line.
Aiming to shine a spotlight on these finance professionals, GlobeSt. is seeking individual pioneers who have impacted the industry through their efforts, as well as organizations and the teams within that have become critical to the industry through their expertise. GlobeSt. will profile the top experts as the 2025 Rainmakers in CRE Debt, Equity and Finance.
