Welcome

Thank you for joining us for our 25th annual DWS Americas Real Estate Client Conference. It’s been 50 years since five real estate practitioners in the San Francisco Bay Area came together to create a firm committed to bringing commercial real estate investing to U.S. institutions. That vision from five decades ago now comprises more than $45 billion in assets under management across private and public, equity and debt real estate.

Over the decades, at RREEF we have seen multiple real estate cycles and while some uncertainty remains, most will agree that in 2025 we are on the path to a new recovery cycle. How should we think about portfolios today as we transition to this next phase -- where are the opportunities to embrace and risks to avoid?  Together we will explore these questions.

On this website, you will find the full conference agenda, hotel map, wi-fi password, conference presentations, speakers’ biographies, and related research.

We look forward to spending this time with you and hope you will find the conference content informative and insightful.
