A Look At Asset Performance Across The GTA
45 sec read
Over this past year, the commercial real estate market has seen its fair share of uncertainty, with a decrease in total assets of 30% compared to previous years. An economic boost has been proposed for 2021, with low borrowing costs and immense capital contributing to investor demand.
Distressed assets have piqued interest in many investors, as they believe settling is their only option. However, to their surprise, stakeholders and property owners are holding firm with no intention of accepting anything less than what is deserved.
Mortgage rates may have a part to play in the fate of assets across the Greater Toronto Area, according to Bill Argeropoulos, Principal and Practice Leader of research at Avison Young. “ Mortgage maturities have the potential to put pressure on commercial property owners and their lenders – although interest rates are likely lower now than when the mortgages were taken out.”
Where the current countries state will lead both non-distressed and distressed assets remains uncertain but hopeful.
