WILL THE CORONAVIRUS SPARK A RECESSION?

Coronavirus Outbreak Special Report


Economic Risks Rise as U.S. Outbreak Strategy Shifts
• The economy is fundamentally sound – the labor market and
consumption leading up to outbreak has been strong
• The coronavirus will weigh on growth, but as the virus is
contained, economic momentum will revive
• Significant disruptions of consumer spending could stall
growth and weigh on the economy

Real Estate Well-Positioned to Withstand Headwinds
• Apartment, Single Tenant and Self-Storage demand
faces a minimal short-term risk
• Office properties will likely see a minimal short-term
disruption
• Industrial and Retail may experience slower absorption,
but demand is likely just being delayed, not eliminated
• Hospitality facing headwinds as conferences and
events are canceled and travel declines

Real Estate Stability/Yield a Favorable Investment Option
• Real estate remains less volatile than the stock market;
Favorable interest rates offer a boost to levered yield
