— By Gabe Schnitzer, Vice President of Industrial Properties, Norris & Stevens — Portland and Southwest Washington possess a total industrial real estate market of 233 million square feet. Portland is frequently praised as the most affordable city on the West Coast, offering lower average home prices compared to its northern and southern counterparts, while providing a high quality of life for its residents. From 2017 to 2022, Portland’s average annual industrial sales volume was $810 million, with institutional funds accounting for 20 percent of the total sales volume during that time. This represented the highest average industrial volume for the city, with early 2022 boasting nearly $1.4 billion in total sales volume. Then Portland experienced its wake-up call.

Multifamily Markets See Silver Lining Despite Economic Headwinds
Like other property sectors, rental housing assets have experienced big swings in fortunes over the past few years. Historically high rent growth during the pandemic came to a halt amid new supply in many markets. And the end of cheap debt has stymied investment sales and is stressing investors who paid handsomely for apartments using short-term financing. But the situation could be worse. Housing remains in high demand, and despite higher mortgage rates and a collapse in home sales, a severe lack of inventory on the market continues to prop up home values and price out would-be buyers. In May, home prices across the country increased 5.9 percent over the previous year, according to the latest S&P CoreLogic Case Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index. Rental housing owners and operators are the obvious beneficiary of those challenges, says Ivy Zelman, executive vice president and co-founder of Zelman & Associates, a Walker & Dunlop company that provides housing research, analysis and consulting. Move-outs attributed to home purchases clearly illustrate the trend. An apartment and single-family rental operator in Phoenix recently told Zelman that such move-out activity has dropped to about 13 percent from an historical average of 30 percent, she …
