Market View 2025: MLG Capital’s Strategic Outlook for Private Real Estate
Each year, MLG Capital issues its Market View commentary to offer a clear, data– driven perspective on the state of the private commercial real estate market. In Spring 2025, CEO Tim Wallen, President Billy Fox, and CIO Dan Price convened to discuss market trends and where they see opportunity in the market today. The following highlights from our 2025 Market View discussion explore where we see risk, where we see resilience, and why we are actively deploying capital in the current environment. Key Themes from the Spring 2025 Market View Discussion Soft net operating income (NOI) is creating tactical entry points, not permanent impairments.

This is because public REITs trade on exchanges and are subject to the same sentiment-driven swings as the broader equity markets. This disconnect highlights the key difference between public REITs and private real estate investments: private real estate is less correlated to public markets. At MLG Capital, we track and compare the performance of public equities, REITs, and private real estate using trusted benchmarks like the S&P 500, the IYR ETF (for public REITs), and the NCREIF Property Index (for institutional private real estate). Historically, and continuing into this volatile 2025 environment, private real estate has shown considerably lower volatility and less correlation with the ups and downs of the stock market. Overexposure to highly correlated, and currently volatile assets, may result in increased risk when compared with a...
