Preparing for the economic recovery requires careful strategizing. In this session, C-level executives discuss their tactics for getting through to 2012.

Signs of Life
9:00 – 10:00 am • Cascade Ballroom
2009 was a year of declining fundamentals. Actual rents weakened; occupancies degraded; and leasing offices were pressed to find hard cash for on-site expenses. As a result, property and asset managers are taking a close look at how best to boost their numbers and eyeing the strategies that will inject signs of life back into their portfolios.

The Distress Deals Myth
8:00 – 9:00 am
During a real estate recession, all eyes look to distress as a potential source of transactional bliss. Unfortunately, this time is different. The CMBS market has created opportunities for buyers of bank holding companies, but buyers of individual properties are not quite as lucky. This session will look at the current distress landscape and why distress doesn’t necessarily mean deals.
