2019 Women in Real Estate: Barbara Oddo, Lincoln Property Company

Barbara Oddo - Immediate Past President

Vice President

Lincoln Property Company

How has your involvement in CREW Boston impacted your career? CREW has afforded me the opportunity to meet and network with people in the industry and other markets that I might not have encountered, otherwise. My involvement has resulted in a number of relationships that, without CREW, probably never would have occurred. 

The greatest impact, however, came as a result of serving as CREW Boston president. As an organization, CREW is considered the “go to” source for women in CRE. As president, you are the face of the organization. During my term, I was connected on a daily basis with colleagues, like-minded groups, the media and our membership.

Investing in a falling rate environment - by Harrison Klein

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.

The 2024 CRE markets: “The Ups” (industrial) and “The Downs” (Boston class B/C office) - by Webster Collins
