Most real estate entities lack the strategy, culture and tools to realize their professed sustainability aspirations. They present their intentions mostly qualitatively and report few quantitative key performance indicators (KPIs) that reveal the degree of achieving such priority Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as SDG 11 – Sustainable cities and communities, and SDG 13 – Climate action. Creating and using more quantitative indicators to monitor the progress of each SDG in the real estate sector is required to inform policymakers and for their accountability to stakeholders. Effective and practicable frameworks are still needed for assessing the relationship between real estate and the SDGs.
