The U.S. National All-Property Index, which focuses on commercial real estate price growth, stood at 130 in March 2018, according to data from Real Capital Analytics. The metric represented an 8.5% increase from the year before, when it hovered at around 119, and a 0.7% uptick from February 2018. Industrial properties led the monthly price gains, while CBD office prices edged down.

RCA analysts noted that price growth was also strong for the apartment sector, with the transaction volume of apartment properties jumping by 25% year over year, in Q1 2018.

Though CBD office properties experienced a decline in price growth, suburban office monthly price growth increased by 5% year over year. “Monthly price growth for suburban offices has been accelerating since the start of Q4’17,” RCA noted.
