Net Lease Investors Expect Rising Cap Rates in 2019

Cap rates in the single tenant net lease retail sector remained unchanged (6.25 percent) in the fourth quarter of 2018 when compared to the prior quarter. Cap rates for the office and industrial sectors increased by 2 and 5 basis points respectively. As the Federal Reserve continues to implement its monetary policy, there is investor expectation that cap rates should trend upward in 2019.
