Brokers, Investors & Economists Are Taking the Long View
The real estate business is transitioning out of its concentration on cyclical headwinds — that is, rising interest rates, declining GDP, weakened deal flows — and taking a long-term approach to property assets.
Subsequently, notwithstanding widespread economic concerns, the mood among the nationwide real estate professionals and economists that the Urban Land Institute (see below) and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) interviewed for the 44th annual edition of the “Emerging Trends in Real Estate” report is Cautious Optimism.
Notable Quotes
Leading Economist: “We’re going into what I would say is a healthy down cycle. It’s a cleansing that every so often economies, property markets included, need. It washes out unrealistic unsustainable values, resets, and presents new opportunities.”
Sr. Executive of a Global Development & Investment Firm: “We’re going to have a recession, but it’s going to be relatively mild compared to some of the more severe recessions we’ve had. I don’t see anything like the 2008 economic downturn going on.”
Top-Ranked Real Estate Broker: “We’ll look back in 10 years, and the prices that seem astronomical today will seem like a bargain.”
The Real Estate Trends Report
This robust 125-page report packed with insights, graphs, and expert analysis covers the broad real estate trends that have swept across the business. It digs deeply and dissects critical industry benchmarks in top metropolitan areas, as well as secondary markets that caught and rode high on the wave of a business that has shifted drastically since the onset of the global pandemic.
Some aspects of the real estate industry are “normalizing,” that is, reverting closer to their pre-pandemic patterns. Others appear to have sustained permanent shifts to a “new normal,” in response to the significant COVID-triggered changes in our preferences for features in our homes, workplaces, and the cities or even neighborhoods in which we want to live.
