2025 was a noisy year.
Policy changes, interest rate adjustments and geopolitical roller coasters kept CRE on their toes.
With financing loosening up and transactions picking up, the groundwork is being laid for a better 2026, but where is a safe investment in a world where fundamentals seem to be shifting?
CBRE Global Client Strategist and Senior Economic Advisor Spencer Levy said he advises his clients to wade through the noise and look at the drivers in New York, San Francisco, Dallas, Miami and the Midwest to really see what’s on the horizon for CRE.
These include the reshoring of manufacturing and the train from Mexico to Canada, which carries nearly $2T in trade each year.
“You follow that durable demand driver, that infrastructure, despite some of the tariff noise, despite some of the trade noise, despite some of the political changes — that’s the time to find opportunity,” Levy said.
