Real estate industry leaders predict that the worst of COVID-driven real estate market declines sustained during the first six months this year may be in the rear view mirror, according to a midyear sentiment survey of industry leaders by RCLCO Real Estate Advisors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While some sectors have not yet hit bottom, industry leaders surveyed by RCLCO predicted the beginnings of a recovery within a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Industry leaders predicted that family rental, adult and for-sale residential markets as well as land have already hit bottom, although resort and senior housing are still spiraling down, according to the survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a result, within the next 12 months, homebuilders, subdivision developers and master-planned communities should be recovering and \u201cstable,\u201d according to the survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Only 16 % believe that real estate markets will be \u201csignificantly\u201d worse over the next 12 months, according to RCLCO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Industry leaders also predicted that the hotel business will also recover within a year based on data that shows improving hotel occupancy rates and increases in passengers at TSA airport checkpoints, the survey said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The retail sector remained in \u201cfull decline\u201d in June with regional malls taking the biggest hit. But grocery-anchored neighborhood developments were viewed as \u201cholding up well,\u201d the survey said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The office space market was viewed as still in decline, according to a majority of those surveyed, although opinions varied as to whether it will recover within a year and how it may be impacted by the pandemic-imposed work-from-home trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The survey also reported that retail rent collections, while improving in June, remained under 60 %. Multifamily rental apartments were considered to be \u201cholding up well so far,\u201d in part because of government relief programs that are soon set to expire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The survey also highlighted one real estate sector boosted by the onset of the pandemic \u2014 the market for industrial space which surged because of an increased demand for big box warehouse, logistics, cold storage and \u201clast-mile distribution\u201d driven by an upsurge in home deliveries and e-commerce sales during the COVID-driven economic shutdown.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
