However, according to RCLCO Real Estate Advisors\u2019 latest RCLCO Sentiment Survey, players in the commercial real estate industry should still plan for the next downturn. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/akerman-2019-report-more-bull-than-bear\/\">Bulls Outnumber Bears in CRE C-Suites<\/a><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>The expanding U.S. economy has been a boon to real estate. Positive operating fundamentals persist but the slower pace of growth rates along with capital market risks suggests that real estate\u2019s \u201c<em>late stable<\/em>\u201d stage, or Stage 6, may be coming to a close, placing the \u201c<em>early downturn<\/em>\u201d stage, or Stage 1, on the horizon. From Stage 6 to Stage 1, net operating income will go from moderating\/flat to declining. Additionally, the yield curve\u2019s steady hold in an inverted form over recent weeks signals risk of recession within the near to medium term. The changing conditions in the economy and the real estate market mean real estate owners need to act now, per the report.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>No sitting idly by<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For the majority of commercial property owners, Stage 6 of the real estate cycle\u2014which is apparently fading fast\u2014is the time to sell. Any assets that would be unwanted post-peak should be discarded now, as they may be hard to sell at the desired price after the downturn is underway. Additionally, this \u201c<em>late stable<\/em>\u201d stage is a prime time for refinancing portfolios with low-debt, and for amassing a repository of funds for capitalizing on dislocations in the market during the downturn. RCLCO anticipates that the disruptions of the impending downturn won\u2019t rise to the level of those seen during the Great Recession, but opportunities will abound.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004336498\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/07\/Cycle-Stages.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004336498\" data-attachment-id=\"1004336498\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/despite-record-growth-cre-industry-should-plan-for-downturn\/cycle-stages\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/07\/Cycle-Stages.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"900,600\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" 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;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Cycle Stages\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Image courtesy of RCLCO Real Estate Advisors&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/07\/Cycle-Stages.jpg?w=900\" class=\"wp-image-1004336498 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/07\/Cycle-Stages.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/07\/Cycle-Stages.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/07\/Cycle-Stages.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/07\/Cycle-Stages.jpg?resize=768,512 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1004336498\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Image courtesy of RCLCO Real Estate Advisors<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Once Stage 1 hits, and it could do so at any time per the report, asset values will drop, and favorably termed credit will likely be more difficult to obtain.
