Also, the adoption of technology for energy efficiency and smart buildings is on the rise. HOST: Interesting. And what challenges have you faced or observed in the field of impact investing in real estate? GUEST: One major challenge is measuring the actual impact of investments.

HOST: That's insightful. Looking to the future, where do you see the intersection of impact investing and real estate heading? GUEST: I believe impact investing will become a standard practice in real estate, as more investors recognize the potential for both financial returns and societal benefits.
