The retail sector experienced the greatest compression by 4 basis points to 6.23 percent. Cap rates in the office and industrial sectors compressed by 3 and 1 basis points respectively. This was the first quarter of downward cap rate movement for the retail sector following five consecutive quarters of upward movement. The downward cap rate pressure associated with the second quarter of 2019, was largely attributed to the change in the Federal Reserve\u2019s monetary policy objectives. A rate cut is expected at the Fed\u2019s upcoming July meeting and the majority of prognosticators expect at least one additional cut in the near future. At the end of the second quarter of 2019, the 10-year treasury was 2.00 percent after reaching levels as high as 3.24 percent in the past 12 months.<\/p>\n<p>As the retail industry continues to evolve amid negative headlines, investors of net lease retail properties are putting greater emphasis on tenant credit quality and lease length. Furthermore, as many believe we are in the late stages of the real estate cycle, investors are targeting properties that can withstand a recession or uncertainty in the market. Accordingly, new construction 7-Eleven properties experienced the greatest quarter-over-quarter compression of 12 basis points to 4.88 percent.<\/p>\n<p>With downward pressure on cap rates in all three sectors, the spread between asking and closed cap rates saw a decline when compared to the prior quarter. The spread between asking and closed cap rates decreased by 14, 6 and 7 basis points for retail, office and industrial net lease properties respectively. This illustrates the current competitive marketplace for net lease properties.<\/p>\n<p>Investor demand for the net lease market should exceed transaction volume expectations initially forecast for 2019 with sale velocity increasing as the year progresses. Cap rates in the net lease sector should experience downward pressure, but remain relatively stable throughout 2019. Accordingly, net lease property investors will carefully monitor the capital markets and the effect on pricing as the market expects multiple rate cuts from the Federal Reserve in 2019 and 2020.<\/p>\n<p><em>Randy Blankstein is president of net lease advisory firm <a href=\"https:\/\/bouldergroup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored\">The Boulder Group<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New construction 7-Eleven properties experienced the greatest quarter-over-quarter compression of 12 basis points, according to The Boulder Group&#8217;s Randy Blankstein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1224,"featured_media":1004269202,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21684],"tags":[32940],"class_list":["post-1004336168","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-viewpoint","tag-the-boulder-group"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.4 (Yoast SEO v24.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Net Lease Cap Rates Follow Interest Rates Down - Commercial Property Executive<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Net Lease Cap Rates Follow Interest Rates Down\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"New construction 7-Eleven properties experienced the greatest quarter-over-quarter compression of 12 basis points, according to The Boulder Group&#039;s Randy Blankstein.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Commercial Property Executive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CPExecutive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-07-03T15:06:25+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2020-02-14T15:55:58+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2018\/10\/Randy-Blankstein.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"620\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Randy Blankstein\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@cpexecutive\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/\",\"name\":\"Net Lease Cap Rates Follow Interest Rates Down - Commercial Property Executive\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2018\/10\/Randy-Blankstein.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2019-07-03T15:06:25+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2020-02-14T15:55:58+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/#\/schema\/person\/f343578fa0947ffe2beaf0d148360706\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/net-lease-cap-rates-follow-interest-rates-down\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2018\/10\/Randy-Blankstein.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2018\/10\/Randy-Blankstein.jpg\",\"width\":800,\"height\":620,\"caption\":\"Randy Blankstein, President, The Boulder Group.
