# 5. Market Opportunity

The global real estate market represents one of the largest and most stable asset classes, valued at over $326 trillion as of 2023, according to Savills Research.&#x20;

Of this, residential property makes up approximately 79%, while commercial real estate, including office spaces, retail, industrial, and logistics, accounts for a significant portion of the remainder.&#x20;

Despite its massive size, the market remains largely inaccessible to the average investor due to high entry costs, legal barriers, and geographical limitations. Asset Avenue aims to unlock this market, transforming it into a globally accessible, liquid, and inclusive ecosystem.
