396. Inside Trepp Connect: Capital Deployment, the Lending Reset & CRE’s Emerging Divide Amid AI and Data Center Growth
In this week’s episode of The TreppWire Podcast, we unpack a split picture: hotter-than-expected CPI and PPI prints set against a more constructive capital markets backdrop. We recap two days of our Trepp Connect (in NYC) conference, where the overall sentiment was positive on capital availability and deal activity, walking through the conference sessions on the economic outlook, capital deployment, property sector bifurcation, the lending reset, and AI and data centers, plus our keynote with Scott Reckler of RXR and a fireside chat with Bill Sexton, CEO of Trimont. We also discuss CBRE's report showing CRE lending at a five-year high, Blackstone's new homebuilder lending platform, the political uncertainty around build-to-rent, and a Georgia data center story that shows how infrastructure risk is becoming a bigger part of the conversation.

395. Structure, Scale, & Liquidity: What’s Driving CRE Right Now (and Mall Ownership 101)
In this week’s episode of the TreppWire Podcast, we explore the market forces shaping commercial real estate, with a focus on structure, control, and optionality in today’s investment landscape. We cover several major headlines, including a potential AvalonBay–Equity Residential combination, Starwood’s pause on redemptions at its S-REIT, and KKR’s launch of a $10 billion AI-driven data center fund led by former AWS CEO Adam Selipsky, unpacking what these moves reveal about strategy and capital allocation. We also break down how mall ownership really works, explaining why regional malls often involve multiple ownership layers across anchors, inline space, and common areas, with structures ranging from ground leases to owned boxes. We preview our latest Trepp CMBS delinquency report, which shows the overall rate ticking down 1 basis point to 7.54% in April.

394. The Inflation Games: The Fed Transition & Trimmed Mean PCE, Regional Bank & Mortgage REIT Earnings, & AI-Driven Real Estate Transactions
In this week’s episode of the TreppWire Podcast, we unpack the latest macro uncertainties shaping markets, from the Federal Reserve’s rate outlook to the potential transition to a Warsh-led Fed. We also share a 101 on Trimmed Mean PCE, explaining how the metric works, why it matters, and why it is gaining attention as an alternative way to read underlying inflation trends. We also examine mixed signals across commercial real estate (CRE), highlighting strength in data centers and AI-driven office leasing in San Francisco alongside cooling housing trends. The conversation digs into earnings and deal activity, including a strong quarter from CBRE driven by infrastructure momentum.

393. Debt Liquidity, Senior Housing's Surge, and the 2026 CRE Outlook with Chad Lavender of Newmark
In this special guest episode of The TreppWire Podcast, we sit down with Chad Lavender, President of Capital Markets for North America at Newmark, to unpack how credit, liquidity, and pricing have recalibrated through the 2025 maturity wave and what that signals for 2026. With more than $50 billion in investment sales, recapitalizations, debt placements, and JV equity transactions to his name, Chad brings a front-row view of the capital stack. He explains why this cycle differs fundamentally from the GFC, thanks to deep debt liquidity, why senior housing is outperforming every asset class with his team alone closing over $12.5 billion this year, and how operational alpha is separating winners from losers. We also cover the resurgence of Class A office, the rise of active adult and medical office, GP-led recaps and continuation funds, and why Dallas remains one of the most investable CRE markets in the country.
