“While many are focusing on the similarities of the most recent past recession and the current pandemic-related recession, the differences surrounding CRE are distinct. The Great Recession experienced a reduction in CRE sales by 58 percent, with Q2 of 2020 showing sales down about 60 percent compared to 2019. In contrast, we’re facing the sales plummet now in an extremely short period of time versus a longer period. In addition, housing and multifamily are showing resilience that was not seen during the previous recession, but with industrial leading the pack. Lastly, a broad pricing correction in CRE has not occurred, differing from the 25 percent drop in 2008. A popular recession prediction? Sharp and short with a lingering strain.”
