That\u2019s the worst. Knowing who\u2019s going to be president will be an important factor for the real estate industry and for the economy in general.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sikaitis said the President is going to have to extend an olive branch across party lines with the Congress that is going to remain split with the Republicans controlling the House of Representatives and Democrats continuing its majority in the Senate. He also said Congress needs to be less partisan to get legislation moving to help the overall economy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need a Congress that actually legislates and compromises across the party lines,\u201d Sikaitis told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. \u201cThis is currently the least effective Congress in history.

And in the coming weeks and months, I am looking forward to reaching out and working with leaders of both parties to meet the challenges we can only solve together &#8212; reducing our deficit, reforming our tax code, fixing our immigration system, freeing ourselves from foreign oil. We\u2019ve got more work to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That work will begin immediately as the President and lame duck Congress will have to tackle the \u201cfiscal cliff,\u201d which includes a series of tax breaks expiring at the end of the year and deep cuts to agencies such as the Department of Defense and entitlement programs like Medicare that were agreed upon during the debt ceiling deal reached in 2011.<\/p>\n<p>The potential spending cuts, also called \u201csequestration,\u201d have already depressed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/office\/washington-dc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Washington, D.C. metro office market<\/a> because so many government agencies or federal contractors have not been increasing long-term leasing, noted Sikaitis. He took it a step further by stating that tenant demand in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/washington-dc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Metro D.C. market<\/a> is tied strongly to Congressional activity. JLL research found that over the past 20 years, the office market in the region is strongest when passage of legislation is at its highest. For example, positive net absorption was at 52.4 million square feet between 1985 and 1988 when there was a record amount of legislation passed. During the past four years, the market saw cumulative absorption gains of 4.5 million square feet.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004049599\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2012\/11\/chuck-rev1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004049599\" data-attachment-id=\"1004049599\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/how-does-obamas-second-term-win-affect-cre\/chuck-rev-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2012\/11\/chuck-rev1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"858,780\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"chuck-rev\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Charles Achilles, VP of legislation and research, IREM&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2012\/11\/chuck-rev1.jpg?w=858\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-1004049599\" title=\"chuck-rev\" src=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2012\/11\/chuck-rev1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1004049599\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Charles Achilles, VP of legislation and research, IREM<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The CRE executives pointed to possible changes in the capital gains tax structure sought by President Obama as an imminent problem for the industry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOwners who have a significant capital gain may want to sell before the tax increase. There could be some tax-driven activity,\u201d McCarthy said.<\/p>\n<p>Achilles said an increase in capital gains tax rate up to 20 percent from 15 percent for people making over $200,000 and couples making more than $250,000 could take away incentives for some people to invest in real estate.<\/p>\n<p>He also said the Democratic plan to tax carried interest as regular income would have a big impact on his association\u2019s members.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the probable ending of the Bush era tax cuts, new taxes to fund the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) are set to begin in 2013. With Republican Gov. Mitt Romney losing the presidency, the Obamacare policies will continue to be implemented, which some say could impact job creation.<\/p>\n<p>Also moving ahead will be regulatory changes to banks and financial institutions under the Dodd-Frank legislation passed during President Obama\u2019s first term. Jeffrey DeBoer, president and CEO of The Real Estate Roundtable, said his group\u2019s members have concerns about the impact of the Dodd-Frank regulations, particular those governing t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/research\/cmbs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">he commercial mortgage-backed securities<\/a> (CMBS) market and the proposed Volker Rule, which he said could unintentionally impede real estate capital formation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe industry will continue working with national real estate trade groups to encourage a more robust recovery of the CMBS market, which will ensure a broader recovery in commercial real estate markets while strengthening financial institution balance sheets,\u201d Deboer said.<\/p>\n<p>Both DeBoer and Achilles said the Basel III capital accord that requires increased capital reserves by financial institutions could make it even more difficult for loans and mortgages to be made.<\/p>\n<p>Achilles said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/finance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CRE financing<\/a> is still often difficult to get. He is particularly concerned about a program for small businesses that allows them to refinance loans on an annual basis. He said it expired in September and Congress has not extended it. The association\u2019s web site noted that an estimated $360 billion of commercial mortgage debt is due within the next year and that many small business owners would like to turn to the Small Business Administration\u2019s 504 refinancing loans for salaries, rent, utilities, to pay off or down credit debt and other financial obligations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s best for the country are those things that encourage small business,\u201d Achilles said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With an acrimonious and seemingly endless presidential campaign finally completed, CRE experts are watching to see how newly re-elected President Barack Obama and Congress deal with a host of financial issues impacting the real estate market, including the budget deficit, debt and spending, tax rates, capital gains taxes and job creation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":952,"featured_media":1004508761,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21751,21748,21754,21752,21742,21747,21749],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004049588","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hotel","category-industrial","category-medical-office","category-mixed-use","category-latest","category-office","category-retail"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How Does Obama&#039;s Second-Term Win Affect CRE?
