A new Moody”s report shows that the nation”s commercial property sector is showing increased signs of stability, led by burgeoning demand for apartments. The firm”s review of U.S. commercial real-estate trends in the first three months of the year shows modest market improvement, ranking markets” health on a scale of zero to 100 — the higher the score, the stronger the market.
