For ULI Greenprint members
Your due diligence pack for submarket climate risk and resilience.
Past extreme weather events in the property’s submarket and how they disrupted infrastructure systems the property depends on.
Project delivery status, budget, and remaining unknowns.
Questions tied to observed events and resilience projects in the submarket.
The Beforehand team interviewed ULI Greenprint members across North America, Europe and APAC. Everywhere we looked, climate risk data was being used to decide what to defend at the asset, and the submarket's own resilience was left out.
Greenprint members funded this ten‑city pilot to assemble publicly available data on local government infrastructure investment, so institutional CRE investors can see the mitigation actions already underway around their assets.
All Beforehand data comes from public records, with context added for investors. It supplements the physical risk assessments institutional investors already obtain from vendors; it does not use black‑box assumptions, produce risk scores, or replace forward‑looking assessments.
Beforehand does not determine asset vulnerability or provide investment, legal, insurance, or engineering advice. Public records may not show whether an event affected a specific asset or whether a resilience project protects it. Use the tool to identify documented submarket conditions and unknowns for due diligence, then review the underlying source documents before relying on any value in a transaction.
Beforehand, formerly Airys, began at Stanford University as a research initiative examining the challenges businesses and local governments face in building a more resilient built environment. Through its partnership with ULI Greenprint, Beforehand helps institutional CRE investors understand submarket resilience risk during due diligence.
