MATTHEW DOBRY shared thisThis is such a good piece for anyone shopping for office space in the City of Chicago. Believe it or not, quality space is scarce, and getting tighter. Kudos to CBRE Chicago's Research Team, Marissa Oberlander and Michael Raleigh on an excellent analysis!

MATTHEW DOBRY shared thisSeveral great takeaways in CBRE's U.S., Midyear Review. Perhaps the most eye-popping for Chicago office space: "The gap between prime and non-prime rent growth continued to widen in H1. Average asking rents for prime [Chicago office] space remained in the mid-$70s per sq. ft. range with strong demand causing owners to reduce concessions. Overall average asking rents sat at $45.27 [per sq. ft.] in H1 and are forecast to increase by a modest 1% through year-end."Chicago 2026 U.S. Real Estate Market Outlook Midyear ReviewChicago 2026 U.S. Real Estate Market Outlook Midyear Review

MATTHEW DOBRY posted thisMany good takeaways from CBRE's Q2 'State of the U.S. Office Market' Report: - Fifth consecutive quarter of positive net absorption in Q2, despite new supply outpacing demand and holding the overall vacancy rate at 19.0%. - Construction pipeline contracted to 21 million sq. ft. in Q2, with only 6.3 million sq. ft. scheduled for delivery the remainder of the year, putting 2025 on track to have the lowest annual amount of construction completions (13.6 million sq. ft.) in over a decade. - Of the 58 U.S. office markets tracked by CBRE, vacancy rates decreased in more than half of markets but continued to increase in most others. - Finance and insurance and technology were the leading industries for leasing volume in Q2, each accounting for 17% of total volume. - Prime buildings have recorded 61 million sq. ft. of positive net absorption since Q1 2020, while non-prime buildings have recorded 170 million sq. ft. of negative net absorption. - The real average asking rent, adjusted for inflation, has dropped 19% since its peak in Q2 2020 and is expected to fall an additional 1.6% over the next four quarters. - National vacancy rates have stabilized, peaking at 19%. This rate is expected to start declining slowly starting in Q3, with asking rents projected to nominally increase by 1.5% over the next four quarters.

MATTHEW DOBRY liked thisMATTHEW DOBRY liked thisBack in August, I got to send off my first class of Gnomon graduates. I've been moving fast since joining earlier this year, and commencement was one of those moments that made me stop. I always welcome reminders of why we do what we do, and watching this class walk across that stage was exactly that. I wanted to leave our graduates with something that would stick, so I shared a short poem with a simple message: you are a valuable person. Not because of what you've built or where you land next, but because of what you uniquely see and bring to the world. I meant every word. To the Gnomon Class of 2026, it was an honor to be part of your journey, even just the last stretch of it. Continue to make great art, forge your own path, and show off what makes you unique.

MATTHEW DOBRY liked thisMATTHEW DOBRY liked this“Colorado Auberge Ski Resort Lands $482.5 Million in Financing” As reported exclusively by Bloomberg, Stockman Development LLC, led by Marquee Development, has secured nearly $500 million in financing from GoldenTree Asset Management to advance The Stockman, Auberge Collection, which recently broke ground at the base of Steamboat Resort: https://lnkd.in/eepTKMUA The financing comes amid significant early residential demand for the project, with more than 25 percent of residences under contract since sales launched earlier this summer. Among those sales are four of the project’s signature rooftop Barn residences, including a $19 million residence that is the highest-priced home to go under contract in Steamboat in 2026. “Steamboat stood out to us because of its long-term vision and the thoughtful way the community has approached growth,” said Eric Nordness, Managing Principal of Marquee Development. “The strength of the residential market reinforces our conviction in the destination, and this financing gives us the capital to bring The Stockman forward with a partner that shares our confidence in the project and its long-term potential.” The combination of institutional capital and residential sales momentum underscores the strength of The Stockman’s positioning in the market. The project will introduce 95 ski-in, ski-out private residences and a 59-room Auberge Collection hotel, pairing direct mountain access with Auberge’s signature hospitality and service.

MATTHEW DOBRY liked thisMATTHEW DOBRY liked thisI’ve been working on a $2M short sale that has reminded me why I came back to this side of real estate. At one point, we had valuation issues that were hundreds of thousands of dollars apart from what the investor wanted and what the buyer would actually pay. The second lien holder held firm and wanted more than what the first lien holder was willing to give them. And every time one piece of the transaction changed, I had to look at how it affected everything. That’s the part of short sales I actually enjoy. It’s looking at the entire transaction and asking, how do I get this deal to work? And that can change daily in a short sale transaction. Sometimes it means knowing when to push back and when to push for more. It’s sorting out all the moving parts to actually get the transaction approved and closed. I love this part! After nearly 20 years in real estate, I still find the complicated ones the most interesting. And it’s these transactions where I learn the most.
