Is now the time to buy? Real estate dynamics in 2022

As the global pandemic surged in the US, so too did home sales and home prices. On the flip side of things, commercial real estate took a hit as workers increasingly worked from home. As interest rates rise, we look to see what markets are still hot, which are cooling, and what impact this important sector has on the larger economy.  The latest episode of Living Beyond Borders, a special podcast series from GZERO brought to you by Citi Private Bank, looks at the current state of real estate in the wake of a global pandemic, when tight supply and skyrocketing demand left many homebuyers in intense bidding wars, and companies worried about long-term leases on office space that sat idle while workers went remote. Moderated by Shari Friedman, Managing Director of Climate and Sustainability at Eurasia Group, this episode features Dan O'Donnell, Global Head of Alternative Investments at Citi Global Wealth, and Cassandra Spratt, Chief Operating Officer at Eurasia Group.
