More often than not, the final quarter of the year is the strongest. When investors make a push to place dollars before year-end, the resulting level of activity can be significant, and 2021 did not disappoint. Not only did the single-tenant net lease market report its strongest quarter of investment sales activity in history during the final three months of the year, but it outpaced the previous high-water mark by more than 46 percent. An astounding $36.3 billion in sales were reported during fourth quarter 2021, driving annual totals north of $96.5 billion and setting a new annual sales record for the single-tenant sector.<\/p>\n

Along with other factors, the lack of available supply has impacted cap rates across the industry. In the net lease space, we\u2019ve seen additional cap rate compression in the industrial and retail sectors quarter-to-quarter as well as year-over-year. In fact, industrial cap rates have compressed so significantly, it\u2019s difficult to imagine they could go much lower than the current average of 5.59 percent. Only the net lease office sector reported higher year-over-year cap rates, ending 2021 at 6.3 percent, although a four-basis-point increase is hardly noteworthy.<\/p>\n

Following the close of the third quarter, the single-tenant net lease market is reporting strong year-over-year growth. The overall net lease market reported in excess of $20 billion of activity in the last three months, making it the sixth strongest quarter on record. Despite the positive momentum, the market continues to see some lasting effects from the pandemic. Here are a few of the top trends we see impacting the market for the remainder of 2021 and into 2022:<\/p>\n

Low Interest Rates & Strong Buyer Demand<\/b><\/p>\n

Rates are low and capital is available, and this has been an attractive combination for investors. Without an increase in rates or a tightening from lenders, this environment will continue to fuel buyer demand.<\/p>\n

Lack of Inventory<\/b><\/p>\n

Unfortunately for buyers, there continues to be a lack of available inventory across all product types. For example, industrial investors are having an increasingly difficult time finding yield.<\/p>\n

Supply Chain Issues & Labor Shortages<\/b><\/p>\n

As we approach the holiday shopping season, expected delivery delays combined with supply shortages may present challenges. Additionally, in what some are calling \u201cThe Great Resignation,\u201d a high number of employees are leaving the workforce or switching jobs, and employers across all industries are now facing labor shortages.<\/p>\n

Inflation<\/b><\/p>\n

Inflation remains a concern for investors and consumers, with CPI rising 5.4 percent during the 12 months ending in September 2021. Costs are expected to rise for a number of goods and services, further complicating the impact.<\/p>\n
