Poll: Experts Agree, Europe’s Slide Pulls US Down

CHICAGO-Top executives agree with a recent GlobeSt.com poll that indicates most CRE professionals are, and should be, concerned about problems in Europe.

By Robert Carr | Updated on May 04, 2012

CHICAGO-Most commercial real estate experts agree with GlobeSt.com’s recent poll regarding the debt crisis in Europe, mainly that problems across the pond have a strong impact on CRE issues for everyone. However, they also agree that the United States can benefit as well, as lenders look for alternative investment regions.

In the poll, 64% of 241 respondents agreed that the debt crisis “has major implications for all of us,” and 23% voted that the crisis “could create new global opportunities.” The remaining 13% said they believe European issues are either a non-issue because the worst is over, or is of no concern whatsoever.
