In real estate investing, desirability and value famously depend on “location, location, location”. Yet frequent and fierce weather events increasingly threaten assets and portfolios. Investors need to know whether prospective locations could get hit by natural hazards such as hurricanes, flooding, or wildfires.

This is where RCLCO Fund Advisors (RFA) comes in. As part of its standard due diligence process, the Los Angeles-based real estate advisory firm incorporates climate risk data into its analysis. Identifying vulnerable regions or sites helps RFA minimize risk, mitigate damage, and maximize returns for institutional investors.
