August 25, 2026 – 9:30 am (PT)

Please tune in to the Callan Institute’s Research Cafe on August 25 at 9:30 am (PT). This session will feature Tom Shingler, Callan’s Sustainable Investing Team leader, interviewing fellow teammate Aaron Quach, author Callan’s white paper on affordable housing.

During this interview, Aaron and Tom will explore the growing role of affordable housing within institutional real estate portfolios. This session will examine how affordable housing has emerged as an attractive investment opportunity, driven by resilient demand, high occupancy, stable rent growth, and government supported financing and incentive programs.

During this session, our presenters will discuss how affordable housing fits within the broader residential real estate market, review the primary investment strategies, and explore the operational, regulatory, and implementation considerations investors should evaluate. They will also examine the sector’s historical risk-adjusted performance, diversification benefits, and the role experienced managers play in navigating this specialized asset class. 

We hope you can join us for this 30-minute session!
