Amid turbulent financial markets, individual investors are increasingly turning to commercial real estate (CRE) as an alternative investment option. A survey conducted for investment manager Cadre revealed that 52% of respondents expressed interest in the potential for steady income, 50% cited inflation protection, and 48% highlighted tax benefits or incentives associated with CRE investments.
The survey also found that 62% of those already invested in commercial real estate were very confident their current strategy would help them reach their wealth goals – a sentiment shared by only 23% of those not invested in CRE.
Ryan Williams, founder and CEO at Cadre commented on the findings: “Our research shows people are continuing to explore alternative investments due to increasing economic instability. While stocks and bonds may be impacted by market cycles, commercial real estate can offer a hedge against inflation while providing steady cash flow for future-minded investors.”
