I originally wrote the thread as an econ question about the above quote, but I understand now. Interesting article though so I'l leave the thread up.

Prudential’s Silitch said that a decline in investor interest in U.S. government debt could lead to higher interest rates.
“You could have a very quick spike up in rates,” he said. “It would be good for us in many ways, but it could degrade asset values such as commercial real estate.”

It will happen. Just not on the next year or so.

Can't comment on commercial, however at some point all this will come to a head. The two schools of thought are
1. If you can buy where you plan on living long term, especially if homes/land is scarce, do so, take the cheap money, and parlay that against future potential depreciation.
2. Wait it out and pay cash when/if interest rates spike/bottom falls out of the market
