Pontius says that, after last year’s activity, long-term rates stabilized in 2017, “normalizing the transaction environment.” CALABASAS, CA—With consistent month-over-month job growth—, the retail market continues to be an active one for investors. That’s according to Marcus & Millichap‘s fall Net-Leased Retail report, which looked at the factors leading to the current conditions in the sector. (For the GlobeSt.com’s analysis at the paper’s outlook for 1031 like-kind exchanges, click here.)
In fact, there is a triple play of market growth, the report says: “The steady recovery in the labor market has been dominated by advancement in office-using sectors, which combined for more than 734,000 new jobs over the last year, representing the strongest overall sector in the economy. As a result, household formation expanded meaningfully, creating demand for a broad array of retail products, particularly in the durable-goods sector.”
And the momentum is likely to continue, says Al Pontius, SVP and national director of specialty divisions, as that low unemployment—174,000 positions are being added monthly—pumps up hourly earnings, which in August rose at an annual pace of 2.5%. Jobs, of course, lead to growth in homeownership, and Pontius reports nearly 1.5 million households taking shape this year.
