A perfect storm of plunging property values for aging buildings, weak tenant demand coming out of the pandemic and high interest rates for new loans and refinancing has left the $2.4 trillion office building sector wobbling.

For some real estate investors, that may be a good thing.

Several big office buildings nationwide — including in Manhattan — have recently sold at steep discounts of as much as 70 percent to opportunistic buyers, who are gambling that they will score big profits when prices eventually rebound.

specific to BN's lesser CRE,
expect ~50% split of lowball sales and reworked credit.

still CRE shrinking is smaller part of larger growth elsewhere in BN.
as recently as 2023, more tears were shed (& wasted) regarding the end of renewables.
in 2025, probably something else.
