ATLANTA—Strong job growth, along with relocating and expanding companies, is the storyline in Atlanta. That's according to CBRE Research's 2017 Southeast US Real Estate Market Outlook.
That growth is driving a diverse economy that serves as a shield from economic hiccups in any single industry sector. In fact, CBRE projects Atlanta will be the most resilient market in the US in the face of a potential recession.
What's more, as the national war for talent increases, Atlanta is in a good position to capitalize on its young, educated workforce with top universities such as Georgia Tech, Emory University and Georgia State University. At the same time, capital improvements—investments in two new stadiums under development—have spurred further development, entertainment and infrastructure improvements.
