Coronavirus (COVID-19): impact on real estate in the U.S. - statistics & facts

The coronavirus continues to cause widespread disruption across the globe, and very few industries have escaped the pandemic unscathed. Real estate, which generally refers to land and any structures or natural resources attached to it, is one sector that is adapting to the challenges posed by the spread of the disease. Two of the main segments of the real estate industry are commercial and residential. Used for business purposes only, commercial real estate includes office buildings, shopping malls, and hotels. Residential real estate refers to properties that are exclusively designed for human occupation.
