This happened with the 2004 housing boom - home prices were greatly inflated, meaning people couldn't sell later because they owed more on the house than they could sell for. I know quite a few people who bought then, thinking they were making a good investment to sell later, but it's taken until the COVID housing boom for the prices to come back to those original amounts.

[@richardhudson1243]

To balance out your real estate holdings, I suggest investing in equities. If you're cautious, even the worst recessions can present fantastic buying opportunities. Additionally, volatility can produce fantastic short-term purchase and sell opportunities. This is not financial advise, but you should buy immediately away because money isn't king right now!

[@tatianastarcic]

You're right. I was able to diversify my 450K portfolio across markets with the aid of an investment coach, and I was able to use high dividend yield stocks, ETFs, and bonds to generate a little over $830K in net profit.

You can build micro communities in these office buildings, from a post office, drs offices, and a library to small stores, specialty shops, and assorted recreation based on the needs and wants of that community. You can dedicate an entire floor to growing crops with a hydroponics system and even have the building off the grid if you wanted working like an earthship. There are so many options if you look forward instead of looking back!

Offices are incredibly inefficient. Even generously assuming just an average 15 minute commute, it means every employee in your company wastes 2.5 hours every week (100+ hours in a year) commuting. And that’s not including the extra time getting ready in the morning to go in. If you have just 10 employees, you’re successfully wasting over 1000 hours of life every year. Not to mention all of the other expenses relating to working at the office, from gas, to food, to childcare, to car maintenance, even increased costs from formal attire like dress shoes. What’s even more ludicrous is the housing crisis has priced out the largest generation in the workforce today from owning a home anywhere near downtown metropolitan areas, and now we’re seeing vehicle prices hovering around the average American’s SALARY. And long gone are the days when one parent could work with the other acting as a stay at home parent. It now takes two salaries to raise a child, which incurs even more childcare/daycare costs to work in office. I’m sick of listening to out of touch billionaires and teetering retirees give their opinions on what’s best for those of us who need to make the next 30+ years of working make any financial sense. Seeing people in person is nice from time to time, but 5 days a week 8 hours a day is beyond unnecessary.

Commercial Real Estate is much bigger than the office sector, certainly than the NYC CBD office sector. Industrial, Retail, Multifamily, Hospitality and other asset classes also have been changing drastically since 2020 and into the period of rising interest rates. Office obviously has the gloomiest outlook but the rates have impacted other sectors as well, which probably should have been mentioned (maybe because they aren't interesting stories with work-from-home changes or multifamily conversions). This piece also didn't speak to the enormous obstacles in converting office buildings to residential on the public side, with zoning and entitlement, site plan review by planning commissions etc taking up an enormous amount of time and money to navigate. With rates as they are, many conversions aren't as feasible as they may seem at first. It's a plan to fix obsolescence that seems obvious but is harder than it looks to accomplish, especially with the recent increase in multifamily supply.

Not every office building is suitable to repurposing. One can work a mid rise , mostly those old pre war buildings. Newer buildings , with large floor plates , and core shafted, over 6,000 sf per floor , are a no go. They generate a lot of wasted space. Also residential units demand large window frames and lots of daylight exposure. Many newer office buildings , they use glass plates to cover the entire e ternal perimeter. There has yo be a clear definition between glass and masonry. The ideal scenario:is to take up an outdated office building and repurpose it, where it makes financial sense.

Please ultrasound my brain

Maybe a lot of that office space can be turned into residential apartments. Seems like a win to me.

There should be laws against LLCs unlimited liability companies owning Real Estate apartments then price gouging even though their mortgage rates stay the same , their mortgage stay the same during inflation

[@farrahghumman7159]

Work from home, yes and yes!

[@themotuman2663]

Draconian lockdowns have consequences. The days of property owners gouging business owners are over. Just look at the rent prices in NY. Ridiculous! Property owners would rather keep it vacant than lower the price to a reasonable number. Same with storefronts. 30k a month for a shoebox? 🤦 Of course you didn't ask any of them what they were charging.

ALL THINGS CHANGE! In the coming decades we will see massive changes to the way people work and live and the way our children go to school, think about the all money you could save and the traffic congestion, environmental pollution, oil consumption we could achieve by have 3 DAY WORK WEEKS and SCHOOL WEEKS, the possibilities are ENDLESS, convert these buildings into LOW COST HOUSING

[@george6696]

I got a good suggestion, by turning the empty city to a drug rehabilitation centre and refugee centre would solve the homeless people problem,

[@serafinacosta7118]

Who is paying rent ? The city ? Yeah right.

[@viewme6598]

Work from home works it keeps more money in the home owners pockets cause they only either pay one rent or no rent at all depending on if they pay rent for home or they rent their homes either way more money can now either be used for leasure or spend on home owners kids and own house.

A positive city to live in plus our politicians who don’t care about any thing but themselves.

What people in 1st world don’t realise is that WFH sounds good now however employers will not be even more tempted to hire from an abroad cheaper country for the same jobs. They could cut HR costs by 40% which is a very very lucrative offer. I think we r working our way out of jobs.

[@glennabate1708]

This is sad it what’s happening everywhere the real world is empty while everybody does everything from a computer.

[@jesusrodriguez-lopez976]

Anybody know any books,articles,website, videos about commercial real estate I would like to gain some knowledge before I invest in some commercial property

[@g.t.g1111]

To put this on another level. As prime office space, you will have prime residential housing with all the above amenities and more. I predict this will become the future of some commercial space. The other side. Not everyone desires to work from home. some people (with children) like being away from home as a break. Remember we are People with differences. This makes us unique. You will always have commercial office space... Just not as much. Making commercial space a premium in itself.

[@1976ondy]

remember how all this people and Real State raised the prices of units during the pandemic to a point that lots of us end up on the street?, now all those places are losing money, greedy consequences

[@mariayvargas55]

Billionaries en real estate en NY, San Francisco others cities, they increase and increase prices in rents until they put half the people homeless and they complain now they do not find people to pay the prices . Leave affordable prices and will work.

[@NWJF]

"we invest a lot of equity. If it works we make a lot of money. If it doesn't work; um; the lender can; take over the building" Let me help. If it works. You make A LOT OF MONEY. If it doesn't work. You lose nothing and taxpayers cover the loss in the form of the pending bail out. Gotcha. CAPITALISM! 🤣

[@plushdolphin]

Commercial real estate owner says work from home is “a societal problem”. 🙄

[@phoso1]

The law needs to change. They need to allow office space to be convert to living quarter.

[@george6696]

This is a bad news for the riches who put all their asset and investment in high rise commercial building to show off their pride of owning the skyline of the city,

[@djssquibbs3295]

That sounds so awesome and amazing and great I'm great and glad to hear that the economy and the people and the businesses in New York are doing so well happy for all of you thank God I'm not there

[@yarazooom]

are banks becoming EXTINCT? is labor becoming more comfortable is homelessness becoming the NORM

[@Mwm-x3n]

So why are we not using this ultra sound treatment on a much larger group of addicts especially those with "end stage addiction" ??

[@jameslaskowski2540]

This video was NOT ABOUT COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE!

[@franclaxa8717]

Convert these offices into residential space for remote workers. Everybody happy ❤. Just don't feudal jack up the price to commercial pre-pandemic value.
