Episode 60 of "What's Hot, What's Not C.R.E." — Friday, March 13th, 2026Topic: Investor Outlook — Where Smart Money Is Deploying Capital🔥 WHAT'S HOT:

• Data Centers: $87B projected in 2026, 13%+ CAGR, Big Five hyperscalers spending $600B (75% AI-related), Tier 2 markets with power capacity surging
• Industrial Logistics: Demand forecasts revised higher, supply dropping, reshoring and e-commerce driving demand, cap rates 5.5-6.25%
• Multifamily: Institutional capital returning to core stabilized assets, Class B workforce housing favored for durable cash flow
• CMBS Issuance: Post-2008 high expected, up 18% from 2025, SASB deals with strong sponsors getting done
• Medical Office: Defensive sector supported by aging demographics and healthcare spending

• Office: CMBS delinquency at all-time high 12.34%, $100B+ maturing, 50%+ expected to default, older buildings hit hardest
• Hospitality: Liquidity limited, lenders cautious, thin transaction volume
• Overleveraged 2021 Deals: Maturity wall real, 3% debt costs now 6%, extensions buying time

❄️ WHAT'S NOT:💡 WHY IT MATTERS:Capital is bifurcating — flowing to income-driven, operationally sound sectors (data centers, industrial, workforce housing, medical office) and avoiding structural headwinds (office, hospitality, overleveraged deals).🎯 INVESTOR TAKEAWAY:Follow the capital. Data centers and industrial are growth plays. Class B multifamily and medical office are income plays. Avoid office unless buying distress with clear repositioning. Durable income beats speculative upside in 2026.Have a great weekend!
