This month's CoStar Commercial Repeat Sale Indices (CCRSI) provides the market's first look at commercial real estate pricing trends through July 2025. Based on 1,482 sale pairs in July 2025 and 329,377 repeat sales since 1996, the CCRSI offers the broadest measure of commercial real estate repeat sales activity.

CCRSI National Results Highlights

  • U.S. COMPOSITE PRICE INDICES ROSE IN JULY 2025. The value-weighted U.S. Composite Index, which is more heavily influenced by high-value trades common in core markets, increased for the first time in five consecutive months to 235, gaining 1.3% over the prior month. Year-over-year value losses slowed compared to June 2025, falling 1.1% in the 12 months ending in July 2025. Compared to the all-time high in July 2022, the value-weighted index was off by 21.4%.
  • Meanwhile, the equal-weighted U.S. composite index, which reflects the more numerous but lower-priced property sales typical of secondary and tertiary markets, inched 0.3% higher to 311 in July 2025. The index rose 0.7% in the 12 months ending in July 2025 and was 1.9% below the March 2025 high.
  • In both cases, the year-over-year price changes improved compared to the prior month and relatively weaker performance witnessed in the second quarter of 2025.

  • REPEAT SALE COUNTS WERE NEARLY UNCHANGED COMPARED TO JULY 2024. The number of repeat sales fell by 212 compared to the prior month but only fell by 7 sales compared to July 2024. With 1,482 repeat sales, the total consideration in July 2025 was $10.7 billion, representing a 9.1% increase over the prior year, despite seeing a 4.4% month-over-month decline. Investment grade transaction volume fell 1.1% in July 2025 to $6.4 billion, equating to an 11.1% increase compared to July 2024.

  • Composite pair volume of $132.7 billion during the 12 months ending in July 2025 was 27.3% above the 12-month period that ended in July 2024. The growth in sales volume was more prominent in the investment grade segment, which jumped 33.2% over the 12 months that ended in July 2025 compared to the same period ending in July 2024. The investment grade segment accounted for 59.4% of the overall transaction volume during the 12 months that ended in July 2025.

The average time on the market of for-sale properties dropped by 0.3% to 174 days in the 12 months ending in July 2025 compared to the 12 months ending in July 2024, as the sale price-to-asking-price ratio was flat at 92.7%.

About The CoStar Commercial Repeat-Sale Indices

The CoStar Commercial Repeat-Sale Indices (CCRSI) are the most comprehensive and accurate measures of commercial real estate prices in the United States. In addition to the national Composite Index (presented in both equal-weighted and value-weighted versions), national Investment-Grade Index, and national General Commercial Index, which are reported monthly, 30 sub-indices in the CoStar index family are reported quarterly. The sub-indices include breakdowns by property sector (office, industrial, retail, multifamily, hospitality, and land), by region of the country (Northeast, South, Midwest, and West), by transaction size and quality (general commercial, investment-grade), and by market size (composite index of the prime market areas in the country). The CoStar indices are constructed using a repeat sales methodology, widely considered the most accurate measure of price changes for real estate. This methodology measures the movement in the prices of commercial properties by collecting data on actual transaction prices. When a property is sold more than once, a sales pair is created. The prices from the first and second sales are then used to calculate price movement for the property. The aggregated price changes from all the sales pairs are used to create a price index. Historical price indices are revised as new data is recorded.
