Real Estate Capital

Mary Ludgin, senior advisor at Heitman, shares a wealth of knowledge based on her life-long career in urban revitalization and development.

Yvonne Nelson, former Head of Real Estate of NYC Office of the Comptroller, reflects on her experience and career in a predominantly male industry.

Capital is the lifeblood of the real estate industry, but the decisions on where and how it's allocated are driven by people and personalities. On this show, we introduce you to some of those people and personalities. Our conversations touch not only on what these people do, but also details about who they are, what motivates them, how they make investment decisions, and which events and experiences have had the strongest impact on their personal and professional growth. In this second season, we're pursuing conversations with and about female leaders and entrepreneurs in the industry. We're also pursuing conversations with people coming from diverse backgrounds, and we're talking to people who are focused on the evolving intersection of real estate, technology and infrastructure. Look for the first episode to drop in early February, and remember to follow us on your favorite podcasting app so you never miss an episode.
