Caleb sat down with James to get the low down on their latest groundbreaking initiative, the Mode Score, and its impact on the commercial real estate market.    Takeaways Active travel facilities in buildings can have a significant impact on leasing velocity and tenant satisfaction. Designing best-in-class active travel facilities requires expertise and consideration of various amenities and services. Mode Score certification expands on Active Score by including all modes of transportation and promoting sustainability. Early adopters of Mode Score certification have seen positive results and increased value in their buildings. Tracking emissions and carbon decrease can provide valuable data for real estate financing and sustainability efforts. More research and data are needed to further understand the impact of transportation on real estate and the environment.   James Nash: LinkedIn | Website James Nash has founded 3 companies.
