Preface written by Matthew Shirley, CCIM, Sales and Leasing Agent for Saurage Rotenberg Commercial Real Estate, LLC
Even though experts are now doubting additional interest rate increases in early 2019, we still expect the Fed to institute another 25 basis point increase at their December meeting. As investors have been largely unimpressed with their 2018 returns in the stock market, Sellers should be considering disposing commercial real estate assets as investors look to diversify out of the bear market while still being able trade at respectable cap rates.
