Investors and lenders continue to grapple with a cost of capital crisis. Higher interest rates are compounding the challenges posed by an uncertain economic outlook and growing pressure to comply with ESG.
“Staying alive until 2025” has become something of a mantra among real estate leaders.
Among the key reasons for the uncertainty of major industry players:
Regions with geopolitical stability may attract more real estate investment, while regions with instability may see a slowdown.
So, the issues that need to be addressed include affordable housing, healthcare, decarbonization, digitalization, and communications. Real estate is already channeling more capital into sectors that meet these fundamental needs.
Entrepreneurs should also monitor geopolitical events, interest rate fluctuations, and overall economic trends. All of these factors can affect property values, investor confidence, and investment opportunities on a global scale.
Only by remaining informed and flexible can you navigate the complexities of the real estate market and take advantage of new opportunities that undoubtedly exist in 2024, despite all the complexities of modernity.
