Steve Neiger has started his term as president of NAIOP Southern Nevada as it kicks off its monthly educational breakfast sessions this week and said getting the federal government to make more land available for development is the No. 1 issue for the organization in 2026.

Neiger, a principal and managing broker of CAST, has been a member of the commercial development organization for more than 15 years and has served on the board for a handful of years. He also has served as chair of the Government Affairs Committee after being on it for several years as a member.

NAIOP launches its monthly breakfast educational meetings Thursday at The Orleans discussing the key insights that will move the commercial real estate markets in 2026. Panelists include Peter Kroner, director of national industrial market intelligence at Avison & Young and John Restrepo, principal at RCG Economics. Kyle Nagy, a founder and director of CommCap Advisors, will moderate the panel.

Q: What is NAIOP and who are its members?

A: It is the premier real estate development trade organization in the United States. Anybody in the process (of development) from dirt to a building full of businesses listed for sale are our members. I believe we have the most comprehensive brain trust in Southern Nevada. We have the most experience and knowledge across so many different professions and trades. Our members offer up that knowledge and expertise to help our community whenever we are called upon.
