Coverage

In 2000, Real Capital Analytics started tracking commercial property transactions in the United States. Beginning in 2007, coverage was expanded to include all markets globally and RCA has since then recorded a total of over $5 trillion in commercial real estate deals throughout 126 countries.

RCA focuses primarily on the main income-producing property types: office, industrial, retail, apartment and hotel, plus sales of commercially developable land sites. RCA research is concentrated on property and portfolio sales of $2.5 million or greater in the US and $10 million or greater outside of the US.
