Key Takeaways

  • Capitalization rates for single tenant investments continue to compress as demand increases
  • Single tenant deal volume was moderate
  • Lack of supply is a challenge

Summary

Due to minimal returns on the higher quality assets, these short term lease deals have become much more attractive to investors than they have been in years prior. As the country continues to open up we will see increased transaction volume, especially in activity-based retail like gyms and movie theatres that were forced to close during the pandemic.
