Similar to the report released by the CCIM Institute and the Real Estate Research Corporation, Moody’s Investors Service said today that prices of commercial real estate continue to decline, but the speed of the decline may be slowing. The Moody’s/REAL Commercial Property Price Index declined 1.5% in October to 107.98 from 109.61 in September. Based on the index, prices for commercial real estate were 36.4% lower than in October 2008 and 43.7% below the peak measured in October 2007. The index is based on repeat sales of the same properties across the U.S. This is a very clear indication that we are very near the bottom.

Financing, pricing gap and wait for distressed sales are blocking the path for commercial real estate investors.

According to an exclusive survey produced jointly by National Real Estate Investor and my company Marcus & Millichap, buyers are preparing to forge ahead with acquisitions in 2010. Two-thirds of investors (65%) who responded to the 6th Annual Investment Survey plan to boost their investment in commercial real estate over the next 12 months. That figure is up from 56% in the third quarter and 51% a year ago. The fact that buyers are once again returning to the table is a huge vote of confidence for a commercial real estate industry that has been slammed in the past year by falling property values, occupancies and rents. Respondents to the annual survey who do plan to expand existing portfolios anticipate an average increase of 26%, up from 24% in the third quarter and 22% a year earlier.

Contact me to receive the full report.

Price declines in the commercial property sector around the nation are dwindling slightly according to a report by the CCIM Institute and the Real Estate Research Corporation. And that a potentially meaningful recovery is projected to in about six months, the report said.

The quarterly report noted volume increases in the office, retail, apartment, and hotel sectors on a quarter-to-quarter basis, but it is still declining overall on a 12-month trailing basis.

In its 2010 forecast, the report said that credit is projected to remain stiff, and as more loans reach its due, bank foreclosures are expected to swell.  Commercial real estate sales volume and transactions are expected to increase as more entrepreneurial and opportunistic funds will flow into the market.

Contact me if you want to explore and seize opportunities in commercial real estate across the nation as I find the best investment strategy and the best fit between investors and property assets.
