Salient AI Nearly Triples San Francisco Footprint to 37,000 SQFT at Jamestown’s Waterfront Plaza
Why this matters
Capital markets activity continues to be defined by the rotation from bank balance sheets to non-bank lenders. Private credit funds have raised record dry powder; banks have tightened CRE underwriting standards for the sixth consecutive quarter. The result is a market where well-sponsored deals clear, and marginal credit pays a meaningful spread to do so. Los Angeles is working asset-by-asset through an extended office reset. Hospitality on the West Side and selective industrial in the South Bay are where capital is currently moving; downtown Class B remains in price discovery. For LPs, the allocation conversation has shifted decisively toward real estate debt, with equity allocations being deployed more selectively into operator-led platforms.
