Sales of U.S. commercial property sank again in May as the Covid-19 crisis kept investors on the sidelines, the latest edition of US Capital Trends reports. Transaction volume fell to the lowest level for a May since 2010 and none of the major property types escaped the continuing rout.
In the hotel market, just fourteen assets traded in the month. The industrial sector took a slightly smaller hit than other major sectors though volume still fell 70% from a year earlier.
Reports of potentially distressed assets have been increasing and for the year through the end of May totaled more than $81 billion, according to Real Capital Analytics data. Levels of actual distress have remained relatively low except for hotel and retail properties, the report said.
