Deep dives
The Resilience of Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate is showing signs of recovery, particularly outside of the traditional office sector. Although office spaces face significant challenges, including decreased demand and high vacancy rates, other commercial real estate segments such as retail, hospitality, multifamily, and industrial properties are performing well. For example, data centers have experienced remarkable growth, reflecting the evolving market dynamics influenced by technological demands. As the economy stabilizes and interest rates shift, this positive trend in commercial real estate is expected to continue, particularly as public market performance indicates a potential bottoming out.
