2014 has witnessed several liquidity events, which typically result in investors reinvesting proceeds into new non-traded REITs. Despite future expected liquidity events, MTS expects to see a continued decline in non-traded REIT fundraising during the fourth quarter. This could be due in part to the suspensions of sales for AR Capital and Cole Capital investment offerings.
