REcap: Baker Tilly's signature commercial real estate market report

Transaction activity remained extremely depressed in the fourth quarter of 2023, while most sectors saw some fundamental deterioration and valuations decreased broadly.

The real estate markets remained stagnant in the third quarter with low transaction volumes amid continuing debt concerns and operational pressures. Significant cost pressures were impacting most sectors with insurance and property taxes being primary culprits.

Much of what could be said in the first quarter of 2023 still applies in the second quarter, with languid transaction activity and uncertainty being the primary hallmarks. Commercial real estate was generally sideways this quarter as activity remained depressed and confidence in fundamentals seemingly down.

The first quarter of 2023 saw some commercial real estate trends stick around from the end of last year, with transaction activity slowing further and inflation showing signs of easing.

2022 closed on a sour note for the commercial real estate industry, with some mildly encouraging macroeconomic news being more than offset by a lackluster transaction environment and a negative short-term outlook that was fueled by a challenging capital markets environment.

Commercial real estate transaction activity delivered on the promise of decreased activity that we observed last quarter with transactions decreasing significantly across asset classes.
