Q4 2023 CRE Quarterly Economic Briefing
After a Turbulent 2023, is it Now Safe to Move About the Cabin?
Tough 4th Quarter for CRE, but there is Light at the End of the Tunnel
Commercial real estate performance was again weak as we closed the doors on 2023. Transaction volume remained subdued, prices declined further, and even with a resilient macroeconomy, rent growth finished the year well below average across most property types. But as usual, not all individual markets, neighborhoods, or assets, performed the same; the devil is certainly in the details. In this webinar, we will dissect our finalized 2023 trend data, provide clarity as to its current and future meaning for the market, and discuss the importance of the Fed’s looser monetary policy on the horizon.
