The Problem with Commercial Real Estate
Office spaces and regional malls are dead at this point. The pandemic changed many patterns in our society, including shopping and the way we work. Many cities are in big trouble because of these vacancies. And investors who currently own commercial properties are in a jam because their loans are coming due — but it doesn’t make sense to refinance with today’s interest rates.
Which Real Estate Industry Is Headed for Trouble Next
Ken predicts that multifamily properties will be the next sector in hot water. Here’s why: the properties that are coming to the market now started construction about two years ago. In that time frame, interest rates have raised significantly. And when rates go up, of course mortgage payments follow suit.
What’s Going on With the Affordable Housing Crisis
There is an incredible lack of supply in the current housing market. Ken shared that there’s a massive displacement happening, and we need about one million units per year. The only way to remedy this problem is to add more housing to the market.
