Overview
Why You Should Attend
PLI is proud to welcome back Program Chairs John T. Haggerty and Robin Panovka together with an exceptional faculty for our annual Real Estate M&A and REIT Transactions 2022 program. This full-day course was designed to equip practitioners and analysts with strategic, practical knowledge to remain competitive in this unique sector by providing dedicated professionals with up-to-date instruction in the field of real estate mergers and acquisitions and REITs.
Throughout 2021, professionals specializing in REITs saw dynamic economic market and legal changes in high-stakes real estate M&A causing many to rethink prior strategies and practice modules. In addition to COVID-19, the rise in ESG demands and changes in the SEC and IRS regulatory framework have all contributed to significant changes in principles of governance and timing of REIT transactions.
Because go-to legal advisors to sophisticated clients must be ready with proactive guidance and deep insight into industry factors including regulatory changes, no one practicing in the REITs space can afford to miss this program.
