We are all waiting for spring … when all things are born anew!
AND before you can get green shoots like these in the commercial real estate markets … the first step is the market fundamentals have to stabilize. At some point rent and occupancy simply must stop falling and enter the category of “No Change” as the analysts in our industry survey the national markets. Only then can the turnaround … and those little shoots … begin to emerge.
Here’s a sign we may be seeing some stabilization sooner than most pundits had predicted.
Most of the national “experts” reported in the press over the last several months have gone on record predicting it will not be until the 3rd quarter (and most then say “at the earliest”) until we see the Commercial Real Estate Markets recover.
Here is a report showing 16 of 28 major markets in the US where multifamily rents are NO CHANGE in the fourth quarter of 2009. See the report at this link …
Could this be the first sign that some “green shoots” are on the way - might they be curled up under the surface yearning to emerge when the sun comes out all the way? Stay tuned …

Now a Rubber Chicken is pretty useless … except as a practical Joke. Let’s take a look at the most useless number in Commercial Real Estate.The Gross Rent Multiplier - the Rubber Chicken of Commercial Property Value Indicators.
GRM is calculated by dividing the Property’s sales price or value by the Gross Potential Income.
1) We’re talking about “Potential Income” based on the Broker’s most optomistic projections of attainable rents. The basic number has no basis in reality - especially if you are looking for a property with upside. Think about it for a second … if the Seller could get these rents for this property they wouldn’t be selling!2) Gross income starts at the top of the financial statement. For any particular property there is absolutely no relationship between the Gross Income, and the Net Operating Income (NOI) down on the bottom line. You have to know the Real Income and the Real Expenses to understand the actual NOI this property can produce.
