Dallas Chapter September Meeting!
The presentation summarized national CRE sentiment from September 2025 through August 2026, drawing on input from more than 18,000 CRE professionals. It points to a recovery in activity, with continued caution about which deals move forward.
- Deal activity is improving, but recovery varies by market. Respondents reported stronger client activity and growing transaction pipelines.
- Capital is available for well-structured deals. Lenders and investors remain selective, with underwriting, interest rates, and pricing still shaping decisions.
- Investors are preparing for growth. The deck identifies industrial as a demand leader, multifamily as a favored sector, and retail as gaining momentum.
- AI is becoming part of everyday CRE work. The presentation highlights its use in lead generation, underwriting, analytics, and market intelligence.
- Relationships remain central to winning business. Referrals, trust, and consistent client outreach continue to turn opportunities into assignments and closed deals.
For the Dallas discussion, the useful question is which of these national trends members are seeing in DFW. The deck does not provide Dallas-specific survey results or market figures, so its findings are best used as a starting point for that local conversation.
