Easterly Ranger’s Peter Zabierek Says Complex CRE Backdrop Creates Opportunity for Selective Investors

Peter Zabierek, senior portfolio manager at Easterly Ranger, joined the REIT Report podcast to discuss some of the complexities of the current real estate market in which “the easy answers are gone,” but where more opportunities exist for investors who can be selective. “It's less about broad sector calls and more about understanding where demand is actually showing up and how capital is being allocated and who can execute. So that's what's driving outcomes right now and that's where the opportunity is,” Zabierek said. During the interview, Zabierek noted that real estate has become a “much more operational business and outcomes are increasingly driven by how well companies execute.” As a result, now is really the time to focus on management teams and how they're executing their business plans, not just the assets that they own, he said.
