US CRE pricing hits records as transaction patterns diverge
Commercial real estate just hit an all-time high at $129 per square foot median price, however the pricing records mask stark divergences in property transaction patterns; Multifamily buildings are 23% smaller than 2019 yet selling for record prices. Older stock is outpricing newer product. Deal sizes are hitting all-time highs while building sizes shrink. The team breaks down the Q1 2026 Investment and Transactions Quarterly report to surface these inversions, and why CRE pricing showed surprising resilience through Q1’s macro shocks.
