While the survey did not ask why this is so, it seems clear that the increasing appetite for investment gives owners an opportunity to rebalance their portfolios and make good returns with the dispositions.<\/p>\n<p>A third important finding is that the only major challenge of the marketplace is finding appropriately priced assets, revealing investors are willing to move up the risk curve to try to find the new investment opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere remains an upbeat view of the national economy and property markets, which translates into property performance and a positive climate for acquisitions,\u201d Rice said. \u201cWhile there is a bit of uncertainly about the impact of global economic issues, by and large, investors are very positive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report shows that investors remain interested primarily in industrial, office and multi-family product, with industrial leading the charge, with one-third of survey respondents selecting either of the two industrial categories as their preferred sector. Over 50 percent of survey respondents selected value-add as the most attractive asset strategy.<\/p>\n<p>The most compelling targets for investors in 2015 include most core markets with San Francisco leading the way as the number one target for the second year in a row.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no question that San Francisco real estate is performing very well. The main driver, of course, is technology. The growth of tech firms in and around the Bay Area is unprecedented, which has created increased demand for space of all types\u2014particularly office and multi-family,\u201d Rice added. \u201cSan Francisco is a \u2018high barriers to entry\u2019 market meaning that increased space demand has led to significant increases in rents and property values. San Francisco is also a market which cross-border capital sources favor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Other strong showers included New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, Washington and Chicago. The high growth Texas metros of Dallas and Austin were also considered attractive for investment. However, Houston dropped out of the top 10 in 2015 due to the challenges it faces with lower oil prices<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s lots of competition, but it\u2019s still a very positive investment environment,\u201d Rice concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CRE investor confidence and enthusiasm are shining through.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":952,"featured_media":1004118883,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21783],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004118881","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-investment"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
