Rising insurance costs have become a major challenge for real estate owners, investors, and developers, with some deals no longer penciling out as a result. Inflation, climate-related disasters, and broader market volatility have all contributed to premium increases and reduced coverage availability. At the same time, emerging factors such as social inflation and third-party litigation funding are adding further pressure to insurers and policyholders alike.
In The Property Line’s 75th episode, James O’Brien and Eric Greenberg are joined by Rebecca Woods, co-chair of Seyfarth’s Commercial Litigation practice, to discuss what’s driving today’s insurance market and how property owners can manage costs through stronger risk management, creative coverage structures, and careful lease negotiation.

The REIT industry is a major force in real estate, with public REITs holding approximately $2.5 trillion in assets and more than 170 million Americans invested in REITs. Despite difficult headwinds coming out of 2023, REITs have been on the rise in 2024, showing resilience in diverse sectors, including surprisingly positive performance in the office sector. REITs provide key insights into market trends and are an attractive option for investors seeking diversified portfolios.
In this episode, Abby McCarthy, senior vice president of investment affairs at Nareit, joins James O’Brien and Eric Greenberg to discuss the fundamentals of the REIT industry, factors driving REIT growth, and the potential for convergence in public and private real estate valuations.
