Commodity office stock is tough to price these days

CBRE’s Cap Rate Surveys1 shed light on both the average cap rate and the spread between the lowest and highest estimates. For example, if the lowest expected cap rate for a sector is 6% and the highest is 7%, the spread is 1. As you can see, for office assets, the spread has widened considerably compared with other sectors. This suggests greater uncertainty around office pricing, particularly for Class B and C assets where fundamentals and financial performance have deteriorated significantly more.
