Navigating Financial Turmoil

We dive into the singular life and multiple dramas of real estate impresario Michael Shvo, the luxury resi broker turned developer who went on one of the most epic commercial real estate buying sprees in the 2020s. Backed by German pension money, Shvo snapped up icons such as the Transamerica Pyramid in SF, Big Red in Chicago, and the sites of boutique ultra-luxury condo projects across gateway markets. Many of those deals are now in big trouble, and Shvo is tussling with his key equity partner. Next, we explore institutional multifamily's biggest legal headache: the federal antitrust case brought against RealPage and some of the country's biggest landlords. We look at how "Big Landlord" became a punching bag for Republican and Democratic lawmakers alike.
