Parallel to that, the percentages of deals on hold or subject to third-party delays decreased over the same period.<\/p>\n<p>Less predictably, the percentage of canceled transactions, which was 17.1 percent in April, fell in June and jumped slightly in July, only to fall to 14.7 percent in the August survey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The survey report highlighted several findings:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Importantly, industrial specialists reported that 49.7 percent of transactions are proceeding on time, versus 36 percent for office specialists.<\/li>\n<li>Looking at the next six months, office specialists on average have lower levels of confidence in their local markets than their industrial counterparts: 5.9 (on a 10-point scale) compared to 7.0, respectively.<\/li>\n<li>The strongest confidence was seen in industrial brokers in the Global, Canadian, and Mid-Atlantic regions, while the lowest confidence levels were reported by office brokers in the Northeast, Canadian, Northwest and West regions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By comparison, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/sior-cre-market-confidence-slightly-higher\/\">SIOR\u2019s May survey<\/a> found declining optimism among industrial brokers and a smaller difference between office and industrial properties with respect to in-progress transactions.<\/p>\n<p>SIOR Global President Mark Duclos provided <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em> with a high-altitude overview of the survey findings, which he said \u201c<em>generally showed an uptick in optimism from our members. While the industrial practitioners continue to show more optimism than their office counterparts, even our office specialists have an improved outlook, as compared to the July survey. The most significant loss of confidence in the office sector is coming from the Northeast region ..<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>While it is not clear the commercial real estate industry has completely adjusted to the effects of the pandemic<\/em>,\u201d he continued, \u201c<em>it\u2019s clear they are gaining better visibility into the opportunities and challenges of their clients. Unlike very early in the crisis, where the news cycle changed hourly, our members now have significant data and information available to them ..<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>We expect this clarity to increase as the effects of the crisis, while never predictable, become more manageable<\/em>,\u201d Duclos concluded.<\/p>\n<h2>Ground-level observations<\/h2>\n<p>Further insight comes from the many quotes the survey collected from SIOR members across the country. Here are a few examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201c<em>We are seeing office tenants delaying re-occupancy of their space until a vaccine is developed and out to market for public use<\/em>.\u201d\u2014Office Specialist, SIOR Upstate New York Chapter.<\/li>\n<li>\u201c<em>Some office deals have reduced the size of their space requirement, but most have not, and continue with same size [and] people spaced out more<\/em>.\u201d\u2014Industrial &amp; Office Specialist, SIOR Ohio Chapter.<\/li>\n<li>\u201c<em>I have never been happier to be in industrial.
