The CRE market is situated much better than it was prior to the last recession. Most of us in the industry are holding a pretty decent cash on hand to debt ratio to stave off the hit of predicted Q1 2020 market easing. That said the next recession will likely hit the coworking scene hard since most tenants are smaller organizations (with less ability to withstand a recession) are on month to month leases whereas wework types are lease locked for 5-10 years. The lease arbitrage model is a failing idea, in order to survive, coworking operations need to begin purchasing their own properties and leasing out so they at least have collateral they can sell off when the market does turn and to your point, it will.
