Office Real Estate Market Teeters On Brink: Experts See $1.5 Trillion Debt Due 2025 As Perfect Storm
Portfolio Pulse from Piero Cingari
A Bloomberg survey reveals a bleak outlook for the U.S. office real estate market, with a majority of respondents predicting a severe downturn before recovery. The $1.5 trillion commercial real estate debt due by 2025, particularly the 25% tied to office buildings, is at risk. The Federal Reserve's tightening campaign has increased financing costs and reduced commercial property values. Regional banks, holding about 30% of office building debt, are under stress. The Real Estate Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:XLRE) declined by 0.6% on Monday, reflecting the sector's turbulence. Several U.S. real estate stocks, including CBRE Group Inc. (NYSE:CBRE), Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE:ARE), Camden Property Trust (NYSE:CPT), SBA Communications Corp. (NASDAQ:SBAC), Boston Properties Inc. (NYSE:BXP), Vornado Realty Trust (NYSE:VNO), and Kilroy Realty Corp. (NYSE:KRC), have seen significant declines in their values.
