Increased Volatility Expected for Commercial Sector

The commercial real estate sector will demonstrate increased, but not alarming, volatility over the next several years, Fitch Ratings forecasts in its most recently updated Property Market Metric (PMM). The company cited continued uncertainty over the U.S. economy and weakening real estate fundamentals in all sectors as the main reasons for its projections.

The apartment sector continues to outperform other segments, despite higher vacancies and diminished income in several markets. Fitch projects that the office, lodging, and warehouse sectors will continue to face performance challenges in the months to come, even as commercial mortgage-backed securities investments will continue to perform well. Finally, volatility in the retail sector continues to decrease, especially in the country's primary markets.
