Revenue by Segment
Forward Guidance
The market is still working through the ongoing price discovery, wider than normal bid/ask spreads, and a prolonged downturn in transaction volume due to the Federal Reserve’s decision to delay interest rate reductions. While these conditions are likely to persist through much of 2024, price adjustments, distressed situations and maturing loans could drive additional transactions in the quarters ahead.
Challenges Ahead
- Volatility in transactional activity and investor sentiment driven by the elevated cost of debt capital
- Volatility in transactional activity and investor sentiment driven by interest rate uncertainty and the heightened bid-ask spread between buyers and sellers
- Risks of a potential recession and its unfavorable impact to commercial real estate space demand
- Possible impact to market sentiment related to the presidential election, potential tax and other policy changes which may influence transaction velocity and/or future fluctuations in sales and financing activity
- Global geopolitical uncertainty, which may cause investors to refrain from transacting
