JF 4068: Ground Leases, Capital Access and CRE’s Next Evolution ft. Danielle Ash

On this week’s episode of Next Level CRE, Matt Faircloth interviews Danielle Ash. Danielle, a partner at Adler & Stachenfeld LLP’s Real Estate Group, breaks down the fascinating world of ground leases—how they separate land ownership from building ownership, the financial advantages for both parties, and how modern structures avoid the pitfalls of older leases. She and Matt discuss how developers can use ground leases to unlock capital, manage risk, and even access new financing channels without selling their land. Danielle also shares insights into the evolving landscape of institutional capital, non-recourse lending, and why patient, long-term investors are shaping the future of commercial real estate.
