Commercial real estate continues to digest a multi-year reset in cost of capital. Transaction velocity is below the 2019-2021 trend but improving, cap rates have stabilized across most stabilized property types, and the bid-ask gap has narrowed materially in the past two quarters.

The next twelve months will continue to reward underwriting discipline and operational sophistication over balance-sheet aggression.
