The investment window for more than $500 billion in private equity funds is quickly coming to an end. That could have a big impact on the private CRE market. With so much dry powder ready to deploy, some of the world’s largest private equity firms see potential in commercial real estate thanks to, what they see, as a bargain within the sector. For the average CRE investor, this could mean: 1. More deal flow at potentially better prices  2. Increased liquidity in the market  3. Validation from those established private equity firms We dive further into why there’s so much dry powder ready to be invested and the potential benefit for CRE investors in our latest article. https://bit.ly/4282Gkr #privateequity #CRE #commercialrealestate #dealflow

Cap rates’ ubiquity can be misleading. They’re not a definitive measure of value – but rather just one of the useful metrics when comparing commercial real estate properties to help gauge realized and expected outcomes. We believe having an understanding of how a cap rate works, what it reveals, and–just as importantly–what it doesn’t can help investors gain a more complete picture when evaluating opportunities. In our latest article, we dive into the nuances of a cap rate and some of its limitations. https://bit.ly/4iurv0V #CRE #commercialrealestate #investing #privatemarkets

Investors may be feeling the sting this week. Pullbacks aren’t unusual, but this reflects the uncertainty hanging over the economy — tariffs, global trade tensions, and shifting policies. If you’re wondering how to steady your portfolio, we think Merrill Lynch's CIO, Christopher Hyzy nailed it: “Asset allocation mixture of income, growth, value, defensive and cyclical areas are favored in order to participate in the broadening out of the market. We suggest using strength to rebalance as you increase diversification . . . Stay active and increase diversification.” Even if this is a blip, diversification may be your friend. Historically, there have been assets that typically have a lower correlation to public equities - - such as commercial real estate and private credit - - which may help insulate your overall portfolio from stock market volatility.
