CBRE Outranks Eastdil For Most Investment Sales Nationwide

National Office

CBRE has been crowned king of the castle for brokering the most commercial deals last year, bumping former leader Eastdil Secured — which typically takes the title thanks to its specialization in deals that exceed $100M — out of the lead.

The number of large-scale properties worth $25M to trade hands last year fell 10% from the year prior. Deals involving assets worth more than $100M plummeted the most last year, posting a 16% drop from 2016. Transactions between $25M and $100M fell by a more moderate 4%, The Real Deal reports.

While the struggling retail sector did contribute to some of the above-mentioned declines, Eastdil also suffered from falling New York office sales, which dove 83% from 2016.

CBRE brokered $53.9B worth of deals last year and now boasts almost 25% market share. Eastdil was involved in a total of $40.7B worth of transactions last year, while HFF, which came in third, brokered $30.3B in deals, TRD reports.

Overall, the number of large deals transacted nationally fell to $244.2B in 2017 from $271.2B in 2016.
