RCA CPPI Sees Pricing Edge into Annual Growth

Commercial property pricing edged into annual growth in January 2025, with a 0.3% increase in the RCA CPPI National All-Property Index, MSCI Real Assets reported. The index has now posted three consecutive monthly increases, and in January prices rose 0.5% from December 2024, suggesting a faster annualized growth of 6.5%.

“Since U.S. inflation peaked in mid-2022, rising borrowing costs, shifting market dynamics and evolving tenant preferences have driven uneven price paths across commercial real estate sectors,” according to MSCI Real Assets. “This trend is likely to persist as the market navigates ongoing challenges,
including trade tensions and economic uncertainty.”

The retail index outperformed all property types over the past year, recording a 5.0% gain in January. Retail was one of only two property sectors to post annual growth for the month, followed by industrial at 3.4%. For industrial, January represented the seventh consecutive month of ebbing annual growth.
