Exceeding Expectations<\/h2>\n

Despite suffering setbacks in 2020 during the pandemic, commercial real estate transaction volume rebounded in 2021 and exceeded expectations. Survey respondents reported strong levels of investment sales activity, with our 23 top performers completing more than $951 billion in transactions in 2021\u2015compared to 26 respondents completing just $523.4 billion in 2020.<\/p>\n

Even in the face of looming rate hikes, the outlook for commercial real estate investment activity remains positive for 2022, as investors will likely continue to be driven towards property types boasting strong underlying fundamentals.<\/p>\n

While the industry remains optimistic for 2022, our 2022 Most Powerful Brokerage Firms ranking highlights the top firms to watch.<\/p>\n

CBRE held onto its longstanding position at the top of this year\u2019s ranking and placed first in our leasing and sales category rankings. Reporting near $389 billion in transaction activity in 2021, CBRE boasted a 114 percent increase in investment sales volume from 2020. The brokerage firm\u2019s investment volume was spread out across asset types, with the greatest volume occurring in the multifamily and industrial sectors. CBRE\u2019s leasing volume was up as well in 2021, with 1.5 billion square feet leased\u2015a 25 percent increase from the previous year.<\/p>\n

Cushman & Wakefield and Newmark rounded out the top three in the investment sales ranking with a respective $160 billion and $132 billion in transaction volume in 2021. Cushman also ranked second in our leasing category, with 852 million square feet leased throughout the fiscal year. While they hold the third-place spot in the overall and sales rankings, however, Newmark came in sixth for leasing with just over 267 million square feet of lease transactions.<\/p>\n

Methodology<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Commercial Property Executive’<\/em>s ranking of the Most Powerful Brokerage Firms is based on self-reported data from all firms. We used a weighted formula, considered various factors including a firm\u2019s performance in 2021 and previous years, and reviewed data that reflects investment sales and leasing activity. The ranking represents what we feel is a logical balance between firm growth and market share. Ranking factors are not limited to the data that appear on this page.<\/p>\n
