October 2017 | Institutional Real Estate, Inc.
JLL Gobal’s global capital markets experts have totaled an estimated $540 billion in capital that LP investors are holding to place into commercial real estate investments across the globe.
Investors across the globe still view commercial real estate as an attractive investment given the stable cash flow and low interest rates compared with volatility inherent in alternative investments, but the property opportunities just aren’t as readily available today in the U.S. market.
Europe holds the largest amount of capital targeted to invest in the sector at $274 billion of capital demand, followed by Asia Pacific at $103.4 billion, the Americas at $63.1 billion and the Middle East at $39.6 billion.
