Leading trends include the Echo Boomers\u2019 influence on housing, as evidenced in the new breed of housing known as micro units; the demand for healthcare and seniors housing; and the Internet\u2019s impact on brick-and-mortar retail sales and distribution, with speed to market a major priority.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, climate change is increasingly shaping the debate over where and how assets should be built. And unpredictable events, whether natural or manmade, appear on every list of top concerns and drive discussions about security and other topics.<\/p>\n<p>C<span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\">apital is flowing freely around the globe, and as investors and lenders eagerly seek out crossborder opportunities, they are focusing on a new asset class: the single-family rental property. Once the purview of individual owners, this niche appears likely to spawn a series of REITs. And while technology reduces the size of workstations, it is also sparking innovations demanded by that highly influential group of office users, the Echo Boomers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Technological innovation also netted top honors in the newest category of\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 13px;line-height: 19px\"><em>CPE<\/em>\u2019s Distinguished Achievement Awards. CBRE Group Inc. and Sprint Real Estate won the Most Innovative Corporate Strategy award for their joint Innovation Council, which uses Sprint mobile technology to deliver CBRE real estate services. Their first product: a mobile app that improves the speed and accuracy of property management data analysis. Creativity took other forms among this year\u2019s winners, as well, including the Federal Housing Administration\u2019s first funding of cooperative housing, two development projects designed to benefit their cities as much as their tenants, and a property sale to a tenant with unique access to financing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, we are proud to have brought home some prizes of our own. At this year\u2019s NAREE Real Estate Journalism Competition, CPE won a Silver award for Best Web Site Solely Devoted to Residential, Commercial or Financial Real Estate and\/or Home Design. And \u201cThe Best and Worst Cities for Investment,\u201d a special report in the September 2012 issue, earned honorable mention for Best Trade Magazine Report on the Commercial Real Estate Industry. The judges lauded commercialsearch.com\/news as a \u201ccomprehensive Web site (that) tells you more than you ever thought you knew about commercial real estate \u2026 in a crisp and engaging format.\u201d We redesigned it in July 2012, but continue to consider new features to further enhance your experience.
