Erika Morphy has been writing about commercial real estate at GlobeSt.com for more than ten years, covering the capital markets, the Mid-Atlantic region and national topics. She's a nerd so favorite examples of the former include accounting standards, Basel III and what Congress is brewing.
WASHINGTON, DC-Cassidy Turley makes no bones about it-–there is a recession ahead for the market if the government cannot get its act together.
WASHINGTON, DC-BRAC is squeezing Northern Virginia in different ways, Cushman & Wakefield finds.
WASHINGTON, DC-Alony Hetz has signed a term sheet with JP Morgan Chase Bank's Special Situation Property Fund to invest in the company.
WASHINGTON, DC-Local officials are expecting a relatively paltry 600,000 to 800,000 visitors to the nation's Capitol on Jan. 21.
WASHINGTON, DC-Chief among these deals is the $86.4 million trade of 2175 K St., NW.
WASHINGTON, DC—The FDIC has published the final rules for the stress testing required by the Dodd-Frank Act. For institutions with assets greater than $50 billion, the law goes into force this year. Institutions with assets between $10 billion and $50 billion can wait until October 2013. The FDIC board also approved a final rule that amends the definitions used to identify concentrations in higher-risk assets to better reflect the risk posed to institutions and the FDIC.
BEIJING—Locally based Harvest Fund Management, China's second largest fund manager at about $37 billion in assets under management, is launching a JV with Grosvenor Fund Management. The newly launched Harvest Real Estate Investments is intended to help domestic and international investors locate real estate opportunities across the major sectors in Greater China.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA—It's official. The commercial real estate lending market has returned to health, or at least is on the cusp of doing so, according to two separate reports, one by SNL Financial, the other by Chandan Economics. Both note that loan delinquencies are reaching post-crisis lows and that lending is increasing at a healthy clip.
WASHINGTON, DC—The commercial real estate initiatives of this city and the surrounding area, not the political entity otherwise known as the Nation's Capital, seems to fare better when Republicans control both sides of Congress. That is the eyebrow-raising conclusion of a CBRE study—a finding that surprised the report authors as well. "We weren't expecting the numbers to be so lopsided," says Marianne Swearingen, a research manager at CBRE's local office.
A crisis brewing in the Eurozone. Employment growth in the US that started out well in January only to peter out in the spring. Deadlock in Congress over tax and budget issues. A rating agency threatens to downgrade US credit unless said tax and budget issues are resolved. Rock-bottom interest rates that make any investment a better prospect than T-bills. If one didn't know any better, this could easily be late summer of 2011.
