Allied Properties REIT (TSX:AP.UN) has experienced a major decline in the last year, primarily due to the broader challenges facing the real estate sector, and particularly in the office space market. With the shift towards remote and hybrid work models, demand for traditional office spaces has softened, thereby putting pressure on companies like Allied that have significant exposure to office properties.
