The report also noted there are bright spots, including a recovering U.S. investment market, growing demand for data centers and other commercial real estate assets, and emerging forms of capital to refinance existing properties or buy new ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly 75 percent of respondents plan to increase investment levels over the next 12 to18 months. The report also showed 83 percent of respondents expect their revenues to improve by the end of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-top-5-concerns\">Top 5 concerns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Respondents cited the top five concerns that could pose the greatest negative impact to their firms as capital availability, elevated interest rates, cost of capital, currency volatility and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/tax-policy-becomes-prime-cre-issue-during-trump-2-0\/\">changes in tax policy<\/a>. Cybersecurity fell from number two last year to number six, indicating that macroeconomic risks were taking precedence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just outside the top five,\u201d Flood noted. \u201cI think for all of our clients and board-level conversations, cyber risk is still always on the agenda. But for these executives, it did drop out of the top five.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deloitte states more than 50 percent of respondents reported their companies are facing property loan maturities in the coming year. In the U.S. alone, there are more than $1.7 trillion in commercial mortgages, and many have delayed maturity through \u201cextend-and-pretend\u201d deals that just push out the due dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/the-case-for-cre-in-todays-pricing-environment\/\">The Case for CRE in Today\u2019s Pricing Environment<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Flood said there is a \u201ctale of two debt markets.\u201d She was referring to new debt origination versus existing loans facing maturity that are often stressed by refinancing and defaults. Of those responding to the survey, 21 percent said they expected to pay off their loans in full at maturity; 34 percent planned to extend or modify their loans and 15 percent expect their loans to reach foreclosure or to begin the process of handing the assets back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor those legacy loans, there\u2019s still those refinancing difficulties and challenges,\u201d Flood said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, she said they are seeing \u201ca brighter story on new debt origination.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report noted new loans often come with better terms and valuations and<br>success will depend on how well they mitigate loan risk within their existing portfolios while also taking advantage of improved new-loan conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New loan volume increased by 13 percent from the end of 2024 through the beginning of 2025 and by more than 90 percent year-over-year, according to Deloitte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite concerns from the respondents about availability of capital, access to debt capital has improved and Deloitte noted it could even become more robust. As property values have reset, there is more liquidity as some lenders and borrowers begin to reengage. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2025\/10\/Top-concerns-for-CRE-leaders.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"911\" height=\"697\" data-attachment-id=\"1004773575\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/cre-investors-find-bright-spots-amid-headwinds-deloitte\/top-concerns-for-cre-leaders\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2025\/10\/Top-concerns-for-CRE-leaders.png\" data-orig-size=\"911,697\" 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=\"Top concerns for CRE leaders\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Gail got permission via e-mail from Deloitte to use the 2026 Deloitte CRE survey charts  &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Top concerns for CRE leaders in the next 12 to 18 months.

Twenty-seven percent cited challenges with implementation, including technical issues, lack of expertise or resistance to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flood said the use of AI in commercial real estate will be transformative once the practical applications that offer clear, measurable returns are attained. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen they\u2019re doing a more targeted deployment, there\u2019s a lot more potential for impact,\u201d she shared. \u201cWe\u2019re seeing some success, and it came through in the survey, like tenant relationship management, drafting news leases and portfolio management.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How will the landscape change in 2026?
