Life sciences, defense, and a coastal supply ceiling keep San Diego durable. Multifamily fundamentals remain among the strongest in the West, and high-end land trades selectively.
The San Diego commercial real estate market is navigating a complex landscape characterized by shifting investor sentiment and evolving sector fundamentals. Demand remains robust in select sectors, particularly those aligned with technology and life sciences, while traditional office spaces face headwinds amid changing work patterns. Lenders are exercising caution, with a more selective approach to underwriting, reflecting broader economic uncertainties and a recalibration of risk appetite among allocators.
