Lee Layton, a recognized voice in operational real estate with over two decades of strategic advisory experience, will be speaking at the ReShaped: AI x Real Estate virtual summit on September 20. His panel session, “Predictive Analytics in Property Valuation and Risk Assessment,” will run from 1:30–2:20 PM EST and brings together thought leaders exploring the measurable impact of artificial intelligence on asset valuation and risk frameworks.
Lee’s career spans consultancy, agency, asset management, and insight development across residential and alternative sectors. His experience includes leading roles at Colliers and Cushman & Wakefield, where he helped shape market strategy in life sciences, data centers, and healthcare real estate. Now with Block Real Estate, Lee continues to advise institutional investors and operators through periods of structural change, working closely with names such as Foster + Partners, Cain International, Barratt Homes, Redevco, and British Land.

His work in research and consultancy is defined by a disciplined, data-centric approach that blends operational intelligence with long-term asset performance metrics. Few are better positioned to dissect how predictive models are recalibrating traditional valuation and risk assumptions in an era increasingly shaped by machine learning and structured datasets.
At ReShaped: AI x Real Estate, Lee joins 40+ industry leaders, investors, and technologists for two days of focused dialogue on the evolving intersection of artificial intelligence and the built environment. The Predictive Analytics panel will address critical issues facing investors and operators alike: how asset valuation is being recalibrated through real-time data ingestion, what AI can surface that traditional valuation tools miss, and how these models influence underwriting, development, and exit strategies.
Lee’s perspective is particularly valuable in light of the increased scrutiny on market volatility, sectoral shifts in demand, and real estate appetite for stable, risk-adjusted returns. His ability to translate complex datasets into operational strategy is trusted by clients across the capital stack—from sovereign funds to private developers.
