2025 Economic Forecast

The ZOOM link was sent out around 5:45pm on Monday, August 18 from lisa-norcal-ai.org@shared1.ccsend.com
Links can only be sent to those who have provided their Photo IDs in advance directly to lisa@norcal-ai.org.  Registrants will want to check ALL of their email accounts as well as spam/junk folders for this important information; especially the email address listed in your Appraisal Institute “MyAccount” portal.  Those working for government agencies or financial institutions often have firewalls that prohibit proper delivery; assistance from your internal IT Support Team may be needed.

It’s a Mid-Year Update
The Forecast will open with the current analysis of the state and national economy before our “in-the-know” economic and market experts tackle more localized issues and trends.  Attendees can expect to receive a broad spectrum of data pertaining to residential trends (single family and multifamily).  Gain timely insight on how current trends in tech, capital markets, and AI are influencing the commercial real estate outlook.  

Presenters include
Colin Yasukochi, Executive Director, CBRE Tech Insights Center
Oscar Wei, Deputy Chief Economist, California Association of REALTORS

What sort of year will 2025 be or end up being? What factors and influences will shape our economic markets? What is the economic impact of the New Administration? Has California’s housing market turned the corner—or is more turbulence ahead in the second half of 2025? Tech layoffs, AI expansion, and remote work: What’s really driving commercial space demand now? Are high interest rates here to stay—or will Fed policy shift gears in time to save transaction volume?

But Wait, there is More!  After the Forecast, stay to join us for a brief chapter meeting at 10:00am that includes presentation of designation certificates to newly designated members, announcements from Paul Chandler, MAI, 2025 Chapter President including updates on Chapter, Regional and National Appraisal Institute issues.
