Extreme weather impacts
Past extreme weather events in the property’s submarket and how they disrupted infrastructure systems the property depends on.
For ULI Greenprint members
Know your submarket’s resilience risks before you close.
Your due diligence pack for submarket climate risk and resilience.
What Beforehand tells you
Government and utility resilience projects
Project delivery status, budget, and remaining unknowns.
Due diligence questions
Questions tied to observed events and resilience projects in the submarket.
Why the submarket matters
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.
Beforehand is an educational platform that standardizes submarket risk and resilience actions into a CRE due diligence checklist.
10 cities in the pilot
Greenprint members funded this 10-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.

Limitations
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.
