Economic conditions are deteriorating quickly with the Covid-19 outbreak causing a sharp drop in economic activity. 

Key Findings:

  • CBRE expects GDP growth will slow to 0.4% in 2020.
  • U.S. RevPAR will decline by 37% in 2020, with a contraction of more than 60% in Q2.
  • Demand will decline by 28% in 2020; ADRs are expected to decline 11% in 2020.
  • The most complex constraint impairing travel comes from social distancing efforts and travel or group gathering restrictions on global populations.
  • Properties that primarily cater to discretionary travel will be affected most, i.e. luxury, upper upscale, urban, airport, and resort properties.
