Facts & Figures

Fact 1:

Foreign acquisitions of US real estate increased from $1.5 billion in the first quarter to $2.5 billion in the second quarter. Through the end of July, foreign investors have acquired $4.3 billion of US commercial properties, representing just under 10% of all investment activity year-to-date. Acquisitions through the end of June, up 210% year-over-year, already exceed last year's grand total of $3.9 billion by nearly 12%.

Fact 2:

Overall Cap Rate Analysis - The average overall cap rate decreased in 26 Survey markets during the third quarter of 2011. Investors expect overall cap rates to either hold steady or decline in most markets over the next six months.

Moody’s reported that its Commercial Property Price Index (CPPI) was up 5% in July and that most of the increase was due to middle market asset pricing: As in June, the broad middle market (non-major assets and non-distressed assets) drove the bulk of the overall increase of 5.0% in the July CPPI. Middle market transactions have accounted for approximately 60% of volume in recent months. Distressed asset sales accounted for 27.6 percent of the overall sales volume, with the distressed index inching up 2.6 percent. While the “middle-market” segment is reportedly the contributor to the price increase, I am not sure how long that trend will last, as m-o-m transaction volume has fallen off a cliff.

 Fact 3:

California August Home Sales. An estimated 37,734 new and resale houses and condos were sold statewide last month. That was up 8.8 percent from 34,695 in July, and up 10.2 percent from 34,239 for August 2010. An increase from July to August is normal for the season. California sales for the month of August have varied from a low of 29,764 in 1992 to a high of 73,285 in 2005, while the average is 48,344.
