Barry Sternlicht, Starwood Capital Group
FIRM OF THE YEAR, NORTH AMERICA Starwood Capital Group Starwood’s 2015 performance is measured in billions. The Greenwich, Connecticut- based firm made headlines across property types with its first foray into student housing and the launch of two hotel brands. But it was the billion-dollar transactions that catapulted the firm to the top of the list. Starwood bet big on multifamily though the $5.4 billion October purchase of 23,262 apartment units in 72 areas from Sam Zell’s Equity Residential. The same month, Starwood also agreed to purchase Landmark Apartment Trust, a multifamily real estate investment trust, for $1.9 billion. That acquisition added another 19,615 apartment to the firm’s portfolio, bringing the year- end total number of units in Starwood’s portfolio to 90,000. Starwood has also deployed large sums outside multifamily. In an off-market transaction, the firm bought a 62-building suburban office portfolio in areas stretching from Raleigh, North Carolina, to St Louis, Missouri, for more than $1.1 billion. None of these transactions would be possible, of course, without a sizable war chest. The firm raked in $5.6 billion for Starwood Global Opportunity Fund X in under a year, its largest and fastest fundraise. Look for more headline deals with the remaining dry powder in 2016. INDUSTRY FIGURE OF THE YEAR Barry Sternlicht, Starwood Capital Group For Barry Sternlicht, chairman and chief executive of Starwood Capital, $2 billion was on the low end of the scale in 2015 – whether it be acquisitions, privatizations, exits or fundraises. Last October, the Greenwich, Connecticut-based firm announced a pair of giant multifamily deals, first the $5.4 billion acquisition of 23,000 apartments from Equity Residential, then the take-private transaction of Landmark Apartment Trust for $1.9 billion, in partnership with Milestone Apartments. -

Brecker Quoted in the Real Deal Discussing Rental Communities
Since moving from an apartment building in Allen, Texas to a two-bedroom house in nearby McKinney in April, Joy Fleming has been on the receiving end of developers stopping by and asking her whether she likes where she lives. Fleming — a resident living in a community of 180 Avilla Homes built by NexMetro Communities — can now park in front of her house. She has a backyard for her dog to run around in, the trash gets picked up off of her front porch, and she has plenty of natural light. She’s also been working remotely over the past few months, making her second bedroom all the more useful. Fleming, who’s in her 60s, is one of tens of thousands of residents flocking to newly built single-family rental communities around the country. A growing number of individuals and families who have struggled with social distancing in large apartment buildings are opting for more indoor and outdoor space in the suburbs once their leases are up. But rather than buy a home, take on a 15- to 30-year mortgage and deal with the expenses of owning property and managing everything from utilities to maintenance, they’re looking to keep renting. Empty nesters like Fleming, who considers herself a renter by choice, also see an upside in leasing a new home. Due to Covid-19, the owners and managers of a lot of other properties she looked at “wouldn’t show you the space you would be renting,” she said. “It just didn’t make a whole lot of sense.” Phoenix-based NexMetro, meanwhile, is one of a growing number of firms doubling down on the build- for-rent sector with plans to develop and manage high-end rental home communities in close proximity to large cities. -

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Policy 2 ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL and GOVERNANCE (ESG) POLICY
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Policy 2 ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) POLICY 1 HOTEL WEST HOLLYWOOD WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA INTRODUCTION 3 The purpose of this Policy is to set out the environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles that we take into account in the course of operating our company, evaluating investments and managing assets for the funds that we sponsor. We believe that good governance practices and responsible corporate behavior contribute to the long-term success of companies, and are critical to well-functioning markets. We also believe that strong corporate governance helps reduce investment risk and ensures that investor capital is used effectively. The following reflects the principles that guide us and the goals that we strive to achieve. 4 ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) POLICY ENVIRONMENTAL As a core philosophy, Starwood Capital Group is committed to responsible investing through environmental sustainability, as well as responsible community development. The commitment to environmentally responsible investments starts with our acquisition team. Starwood Capital Group conducts rigorous reviews before acquiring properties to ensure clean environmental backgrounds. Starwood Capital Group’s Investment Committee reviews the due diligence performed by our in-house acquisitions team, and our legal team works with transaction counsel, local counsel and third parties (environmental consultants, architects, etc.) to identify any potential environmental issues and request additional due diligence when necessary. At Starwood Capital Group, we do not just look at real estate as it is today—we see it as it could be. This philosophy extends to our approach to environmentally responsible investing. Instead of accepting the status quo that says conservation is a secondary concern when managing property, we are committed to setting a new standard for the private equity industry. -

Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP) – Statement for the Record
Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP) – Statement for the Record July 27, 2021 Hearing of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis Oversight of Pandemic Evictions: Assessing Abuses by Corporate Landlords and Federal Efforts to Keep Americans in Their Homes Chairman Clyburn, Ranking Member Scalise, and members of the Subcommittee, thank you for the opportunity to provide a statement regarding the March 25, 2021 hearing “Oversight of Pandemic Evictions: Assessing Abuses by Corporate Landlords and Federal Efforts to Keep Americans in Their Homes” by the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis. My name is Jim Baker and I am the executive director of the Private Equity Stakeholder Project. The Private Equity Stakeholder Project is a non-profit organization focused on tracking the impacts of investments by private equity firms and similar Wall Street firms on ordinary people, including residents of apartments, rental homes, and mobile home communities. Since early in the pandemic, we have tracked eviction filings by private equity firms and other corporate landlords across dozens of counties in several states – Florida, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Arizona, and Nevada. What we have seen is striking. Private equity firms and other corporate landlords have filed to evict at least 75,000 residents since the Trump administration put a moratorium in place to halt evictions last September, which has since been extended by Congress and the Biden administration. These filings have disproportionately impacted residents of color, particularly Black renters. In some cases, corporate landlords have refused to accept rental assistance even after their residents have been approved for it. Tracking evictions by corporate landlords Since April 2020, the Private Equity Stakeholder Project has tracked eviction filings by private equity firms and other corporate landlords across dozens of counties in Florida, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, Arizona, and Nevada. -
