Volume of U.S. commercial real estate transactions 2007-2022, with a forecast by 2024

In 2022, the volume of commercial real estate transactions reached 752 billion U.S. dollars, up from 427 billion U.S. dollars in 2020. One of the reasons for the surge was the pandemic and the release of pent-up demand as the economy reopened. A real estate transaction refers to the process of passing the rights in a property unit from the seller to the buyer in return for an agreed upon sum. Effect of 2007-2008 credit crisis The U.S. real estate market reached its peak in 2007, just before the 2007-2008 credit crisis when the property market collapsed. The value of commercial property returns dropped between 2007 and 2009. Since 2010, the market has steadily recovered, and the volume of transactions climbed until 2015, and has levelled out since then. Types of commercial real estate The change in overall transaction volume is most likely impacted by the type of commercial properties which are more attractive to investors in a particular period. For instance, the interest in multifamily housing investment opportunities went down in the same period that interest in hotel investment opportunities went up.

2022年，商业房地产交易量攀升至7520亿美元，相较于2020年的4270亿美元有显著增长。此增长之迅猛，部分原因可归因于疫情的冲击以及随着经济逐步复苏而释放的积压需求。所谓房地产交易，即指卖方将物业单位的所有权转移给买方，以换取双方约定的金额。2007-2008年信贷危机的影响：美国房地产市场在2007年达到顶峰，紧接着2007-2008年信贷危机爆发，房地产市场陷入崩溃。2007年至2009年间，商业物业的回报价值出现下滑。自2010年起，市场逐步复苏，交易量直至2015年持续攀升，此后则趋于稳定。商业房地产的类型：整体交易量的变化，最有可能受到特定时期投资者偏好的商业物业类型的影响。例如，在酒店投资机会受到青睐的同时，多户型住宅投资机会的兴趣却有所下降。
