In this episode of The Distribution, host Brandon Sedloff sits down with Brendan Wallace, CEO & CIO of Fifth Wall, to explore the firm's founding thesis, its investment philosophy, and the evolving intersection of real estate and technology. Brendan shares his unique career path—from real estate private equity at Blackstone to launching a successful tech startup sold to Workday—offering rare insight into how his dual experience in tech and real estate shaped the creation of Fifth Wall. He outlines how the firm's strategic LP model allows them to drive technology adoption within the real estate sector, and discusses the broader opportunity that comes from modernizing a traditionally analog industry. The conversation also touches on the firm's investing strategy, views on AI and data, and why Brendan believes the next wave of leading real estate platforms will be launched in the coming years. They discuss: * Why Fifth Wall's LP base of real estate incumbents gives it a strategic advantage in venture investing * How Brendan's early tech exit and institutional finance background informed his venture model * The challenges of real estate's slow tech adoption, and which firms are actually driving change * Brendan's view on the overhyped promise of proprietary data in the AI era * Why now may be the best time in a generation to launch a new real estate investment platform A valuable conversation for anyone exploring the future of real estate, venture capital, or building at the intersection of both.

Fifth Wall's Brendan Wallace and CBRE's Connor Hall explore innovation in commercial real estate, from flexible workspaces to AI-driven investment strategies.Share these insights on proptech investing: · Investing in PropTech, like all venture capital investments – is high risk and high reward. Investors typically underwrite 40%+ internal rates of return (IRRs), betting that a few transformative companies succeed and compensate for those that fail. · Investing in PropTech provides early access to innovations that enhance asset performance, reduce costs and create competitive differentiation. · Artificial intelligence is expected to improve underwriting, asset selection and risk modeling for real estate investors. Those that adopt AI-driven tools early may gain a significant edge. · The initial public offering (IPO) market has slowed, but standout exits like ServiceTitan show that public capital is still available for top-tier companies. Investors in private companies should be prepared for longer holding periods prior to exits. · The most investable PropTech companies are those that solve challenges for real estate in operations, capital markets, risk management and elsewhere. Deep industry knowledge is key to identifying winners.

In this episode of Multifamily Collective, Mike Brewer dives into a thought-provoking post by Brendan Wallace, CEO of Fifth Wall, on how Starbucks lost its way in the customer experience (CX) space. As a longtime Starbucks fan, Mike shares firsthand observations on how the coffee giant's customer experience fell short—from dirty stores to impersonal service—and how similar issues are showing up in the multifamily industry. Mike examines how the multifamily industry's rapid adoption of PropTech is reshaping the customer experience, but not always for the better. With too many platforms, endless logins, and integration issues, leasing agents often act as tech support instead of providing meaningful service. Mike calls on multifamily leaders to focus on a seamless, customer-centered experience and to learn from Starbucks' mistakes in over-complicating their CX. He promises to keep an eye on Starbucks' recovery strategies and share any actionable insights here on Multifamily Collective. Visit MultifamilyMediaNetwork.com for more insights and updates.

Companies Mentioned: Fifth Wall Shout Outs: Michael Beckerman, Climate Tech Greg Smithies, Brendan Wallace, Brad Greiwe at Fifth Wall Brian Bartholomeusz Key Insights From This Episode: We started a non-profit organization that developed off-grid electrification solutions for developing countries... We electrified about 600 homes over the course of a couple of years, mostly through solar power. - Christopher Obviously solar is renewable energy. You're not burning fossil fuels in are causing emissions. - Samuel As we move to more decentralisation, I can't think of anything that's much more decentralised than being able to control and own your own energy. - Samuel Unfortunately, when there are in natural disasters, it's a poignant reminder to people that a) we need to do something about it, and b) if you're concerned about reliability and independence, solar is something that you should seriously consider. - Samuel Solar is a super interesting space, and in a very interesting time. It's a space that matters and that's pretty rare combination. - Chris In the last decade or so, we've seen the early stages of this massive shift from large centralised fossil fuel nuclear base generation, towards distributed renewables that are much more dynamic. - Christopher Keywords: renewable energy, solar panels, ESG, climate change, emissions About Our Guests: Christopher Hopper, Co-Founder & CEO, Aurora Solar https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopher-hopper/ Christopher Hopper is the Co-founder and CEO of Aurora Solar, the solar industry's leading platform for solar PV system design and sales.

Along with a couple of friends, Chris started a non-profit bringing off grid power to developing countries. Chris and Sam met at Stanford Business School and both shared a passion for entrepreneurship. Now they make software for solar companies to help them scale their business design and support adoption of solar. [06:40] What are the major ESG components of solar, how does it slow down climate change? Aurora takes all of the manual processes of design and fit of solar panels and turns them into easy digital processes. By nature, the product is ESG as it is all done remotely. [11:00] Do you have a challenge with people who are less used to tech being slower to adopt your software? The technology has proven itself; we have validations from various places and customers are seeing it themselves. [13:00] Is it right that you've delivered over 7 million solar projects? We help out clients and scientists do work in the field. The work of Aurora is behind the scenes and we don't take credit for the project, but we support the end-to-end process through the software. [14:30] What major trends have you seen from customers? During the snowstorm in Texas last year, we saw Texas having the highest per capital number of solar designs created, which wouldn't have been the case in the past. People have seen a problem and want to have more independence and reliability with their energy. [17:45] What are the career opportunities in this space? Energy is undergoing such a huge transition right now. It's an interesting trend with a lot of challenges to shift to a future powered by renewable energy. There's a lot that software can actually do to bring down the cost of, solar which ultimately will drive adoption. The work is meaningful, the product is interesting, the value of what you're selling is clear with some explanation. [23:00] The LMRE part of the podcast. L - what is the main lesson you've learned?

Brendan Wallace of Fifth Wall joins Nick to discuss How COVID Has Instigated a Massive Demographic Reshuffling, Accelerating the Transformation of Retail, and Why Real Estate Will Become the Largest Consumer of Climate Tech. In this episode, we cover: The world becomes more flat over time, and w/ mobility tech, like Uber and others, the distance between points shortens over time, which all fundamentally disrupts urban planning of the cities themselves but also the suburbs and beyond... now we're in a situation where a wild card factor comes into play... this pandemic... that has altered how people live and work more fundamentally than ever expected? First off... trends where you will deploy dollars? Do we go back to a primarily in-office environment post-covid? why or why not? Have you seen more value creation or more value destruction, in real estate, from the pandemic? What strategies will cities implement to stay competitive post-covid? We have a new administration in office... How do you think this affects real estate and your strategy at Fifth Wall? Climate issues and the net carbon effect of construction on the planet... is technology the primary solution to these issues, or is it even more basic than that? Financial side or real estate, construction and AEC side, there's the post-construction in-service opportunities/retrofits for buildings whether residential, commercial or industrial... what part are you spending the most time in and do you feel there's the biggest gap between current state and desired state? What are the most common mistakes founders make when building in this sector?

On this week's Tech Talk Radio, Emily Wright and co-host Sam McClary are joined by Fifth Wall's Brendan Wallace and Tyson Woeste following the launch of the California-based VC fund's $200m Carbon Impact Fund last week. The fund will allow real estate companies in invest in sustainable and energy efficient technologies. The duo talk about why the time for action is now as the general public, capital markets and regulators alike are all starting to ask what the real estate sector is doing to take responsibility for its role in climate change. "We want to make the real estate industry more energy efficient than it is currently," says Wallace. "Everyone on planet earth is in the middle of this crisis and real estate owners haven’t accepted the responsibility they have. It is time. The real estate industry has to come together to solve this." Wallace and Woeste go on to add that the problem will not be solved by hundreds or thousands of real estate owners looking to individually assess technologies and then individually apply them to their portfolios. Rather everyone needs to come together to solve a "collective problem". Given the fact that Fifth Wall manages "a billion dollars worth of capital" from 52 real estate corporates across the world already, it feels well placed to be the driving force behind bringing the sector together to help take on "the biggest fight of our generation."

Real Estate Is Your Business - a real estate technology podcast
Connecting technology innovation and real estate industry leaders… Brendan Wallace, Co-Founder of Fifth Wall Ventures (fostering collaboration between innovative technologies for the Built World and industry-leading incumbents from all sectors of the real estate industry including: retail, industrial, hospitality, multi-family, homebuilding, office, and brokerage), joins hosts Thomas Kutzman and Scott Pollack in the MouthMedia Network studios powered by Sennheiser. Presented by Prevu.Two halves of a career, the historical absence of funds in the largest economic sector, and playing translator Wallace shares the mission is to accelerate innovation in the Built World to improve how we live, work, sleep, consume, move, create, connect, and play. He comments how the company envisions a future where technology is seamlessly integrated into the physical spaces around us, creating a shared environment that is more accessible, efficient, and delightful than ever before. He covers his successes as entrepreneur and an exit, arriving at real estate tech, the marriage of the first half of his career (real estate banking and private equity, witnessing the boom and bust) and the second half of his career (going to business school, starting a data analytics business for recruiting and targeting the right kind of workers, raising $35 million as students, then creating the largest ride sharing platform in Latin America, and finally angel investing). How real estate tech offers low-tech risk because innovation is usually technically simple. Real estate is the largest asset class and lending category and store of consumer wealth—so why have there been no funds? What if one could raise capital from the largest buyers of real estate technology themselves, then collaborate and understand or influence what they are going to do, allowing them to make better investments, while supporting portfolio companies. This approach offers the best of traditionalist and generalist VC and corporate VC. How Fifth Wall is like an outsourced recruiter for companies to invest, and on the side of the companies, playing translator between major real estate incumbents and innovators, and partnering with generalist funds. And, how Fifth Wall has relationships deep into every subsector.A demand for tech, big drivers, and learning from Amazon’s business model Is Fifth Wall inciting change or making change themselves, and how the demand for real estate tech is growing. Playing a role in translating needs to specific solutions, a focus that is more on commercial real estate, less on residential brokerage, and concentrating on what partners are looking for. Big drivers are energy efficiency and building data assets, why more companies haven’t had a huge impact on the real estate industry with data, and the challenge with collecting meaningful data. Looking at brick and mortar retail and learning. Does Amazon know its business model? The meaning of retail is changing, and the line between online and offline. Plus how there must be more consideration of the physical store in online purchases, and how this relates to Amazon’s purchase of Whole Foods.A technology divide, rushing for the exit, and real estate on Mars East Coast vs. West Coast divide in technology, how technology is becoming all industries, New York as the nerve center of the real estate industry, and why Fifth Wall is likely to open office in NYC sooner vs. later. How rushing for the exit might have been the biggest mistake of Wallace’s career, both tech and real estate boom cycles won’t last, and why the real test is how you perform during imminent retractions. How Fifth Wall is effectively an advisory business and a venture fund, so Wallace’s time belongs to other people. And a look at rare free time, running and physical training, and the search for balance when one is being paid for good judgment. Plus, maintaining reality as a great partner while creating space to identify the next great opportunity, playing pool, early real estate memories, favorite rooms, and spending a lot of time on the roof. Plus, buying property on Mars.
