2017-18 CRE ® Top Ten Issues Affecting Real Estate S heldon Gross Realty, shared just-released in- formation about impor- tant business disruptors – the issues and trends impacting U.S. commercial and residential real estate. Sheldon Gross, pres- ident and CEO of the agency, is a member of The Counselors of Real Estate ® (CRE), the global professional association which annually announces The CRE ® Top Ten Issues Affecting Real Estate, an update of market trends and conditions which in- fluence real estate opportunities and risks. Members of CRE are recognized property experts who provide specialized and objec- tive advisory services to clients; membership is by invitation. “Political polarization and global uncertainty lead the 2017-18 list because divisive- ness – which is occurring at all levels (and is fueled by news headlines, political be- liefs and budget constraints) – makes decision making dif- ficult,” explains Gross. “Global uncertainty is also creating challenges for investment and employment in non-U.S. mar- kets, and could negatively impact foreign investment in U.S. properties.” Other issues include the tech- nology boom – causing extraor- dinary changes in how real estate is bought, sold, valued, and managed.
