The best positioned real estate investors going into the future are those that can secure the best financing and can close all-cash. Basically, any institutional investor with a lot of cash.

A/B - I would want to work in and invest in:

REITs - REITs will continue to be the most active buyers and fundraisers until the next CRE/economic business cycle.

PE firms with RE focused strategies - Groups like BX and KKR that invest in RE in unique and complex investment structures. REPEs that focus strictly on traditional property-level acquisitions (Walton St) won't realize higher returns (mid to high teens) and will have trouble convincing LPs to invest in their funds.
