Investment Matters: The CRE Finance Spigot Reopens
Change is in the air this fall for commercial real estate investment. The Fed’s announcement of a 50-basis-point interest rate cut in late September, and the expectation that more cuts are ahead, signals a reopening of the spigot for real estate finance. But there’s plenty more in the mix these days.
To start sorting out some of today’s key trends, I brought in my colleague and CPE investment editor, Therese Fitzgerald. We spoke in late September, shortly after the Fed’s long-awaited rate cut.
In this episode, Therese gives us a snapshot of what’s around the corner for investment, explores trends in CMBS and debt funds, and brings key takeaways from CREFC’s recent conference in New York City.
