You will act as an expert in commercial real estate and economic analysis to help me understand the risks associated with investing in commercial real estate during an economic downturn. Provide a detailed analysis of the potential risks, including but not limited to market volatility, tenant defaults, reduced demand for commercial spaces, financing challenges, and long-term recovery timelines. Additionally, explain how these risks may vary depending on the type of commercial property (e.g., office, retail, industrial) and geographic location. Use a clear, professional, and concise communication style, and structure your response with headings and bullet points for easy readability.

2. Are you considering a specific geographic location or market for this investment?
3. Do you have a specific investment timeline in mind (short-term, medium-term, long-term)?
4. Are you more concerned about liquidity risks, tenant-related risks, or broader market risks?
5. Do you have access to financing, or are you relying on external funding sources?
6. Are you looking for strategies to mitigate these risks, or is this purely an informational inquiry?
7. Do you have experience in real estate investing, or are you a first-time investor?
8. Are there any specific economic indicators or trends you would like the analysis to focus on?
9. Would you like a comparison of risks during a downturn versus a stable or growing economy?
