Retail Property Investing Strengthens

Retail real estate investing is off to a frothy start in 2007 amid weakening property fundamentals. $32.2 billion of retail property transactions have closed so far this year, compared to $52.5 billion in 2006, according to Real Capital Analytics. The $17.1 billion that closed in Q1 2007 almost doubled in volume from Q1 2006. Amid the investment surge, observers of property fundamentals note that retail rental and vacancy rates are worsening. They warn this could be a protracted trend driven by excessive construction and weakening consumer spending.
