16th December 2009
The current downturn in the commercial property rental values is not over yet. However, taking the next decade as a whole, our view is that, as has been the case historically, retail rental values will grow at the fastest average rate, perhaps 3%y/y in …
14th December 2009
Although the media coverage of last week’s De Montfort University study of commercial property lending over the first half of 2009 was relatively negative in tone, there were some more positive results worth highlighting. That said, we have not changed …

Markets have continued to respond reasonably positively to the further signs of recovery in the global and UK economies. But concerns are starting to emerge that central banks may leave policy conditions too loose for too long, encouraging the build up of …
26th November 2009
Yesterday’s BPF/IPD Annual Lease Review for 2009 showed that leases continue to get shorter and break clauses more common, implying a higher risk of voids for landlords. Although commercial property’s current sharp recovery suggests that investors may be …

19th November 2009
Economic prospects have improved since the previous Analyst, but not sufficiently to warrant a material change to our commercial property forecasts. As a result, over the period 2010-13, we still expect all-property total returns to average 8% to 9% per …
17th November 2009
Part-time working has become more common during this recession, and may have helped commercial property demand to hold up better than it would have done in a scenario where firms were simply laying-off staff. However, we think that overall employment …
13th November 2009
As they did in the early 1990s, the leisure and hotel sectors experienced smaller-than-average capital value falls during the most recent downturn. The weight of evidence is that these two niche sectors outperformed in the early 1990s because they entered …

With 10-year bond yields averaging 3.65% over the past month and all-property initial yields at 7.7%, investors seem to be pricing property on the assumption that rental values in 10 years’ time will be virtually unchanged from today’s levels. While past …
21st October 2009
IPD all-property capital values rose by 0.2% in August, ending a 25-month unbroken run of falls. Retail warehouse capital values, however, troughed in June and have since risen by 1.4% from their floor. Although such differences are small, they do fit …
12th October 2009
Yesterday’s papers gave considerable coverage to recent Savills research reporting a sharp rise in the number of lenders willing to lend against UK commercial property. Clearly, this adds to the case for expecting a short-term rally in the market. But the …
7th October 2009
Although today’s CBI/PwC Financial Services Survey showed a further recovery in financial sector confidence, we doubt that this signals an imminent end to the downturn in office rental values. Indeed, a composite indicator that we have constructed from …

Construction orders for new commercial property have fallen sharply during the recession. However, with the economy showing some signs of improvement, they may now have reached a floor. At the same time, though, our economic forecasts also suggest that …
14th September 2009
The maintenance of historically low levels of short-dated bond yields alongside the strong rally in the equity market has prompted much talk of a “bond-equity conundrum”, in which the two markets appear to be anticipating vastly different outcomes for the …
11th September 2009
The Bank of England (BoE) recently switched from publishing quarterly commercial property lending data to releasing them monthly. Given that these data generate an above-average number of client queries, we have taken the opportunity in this Update to …

As well as evidence of improving investor sentiment, there have also recently been signs that occupier demand may be firming. Even so, there are good reasons to believe that the peak-to-trough decline in IPD rental values is less than halfway through and …

Commercial property transactions now seem to have found a floor, but we doubt that they will suddenly rebound strongly. Even so, it seems more likely than not that market activity levels will improve to some degree over the coming quarters, pushing yields …

The current commercial property occupier market downturn could run for another 12-18 months, and we think that, depending on the sector, rising voids over that period may take up to 5% off a typical landlord’s rental income stream. Clearly, that would be …
15th July 2009
The latest Strutt & Parker (S&P)/IPD Lease Events Review made for mixed reading from a commercial property investor’s point of view. Regardless, the shorter term influences that it looks at are small change in the context of the long-term downward trend …
13th July 2009
Retail sales have outperformed non-retail sales during the recession to date. Were that outperformance to continue it could be argued that the prospects for retail rental values are brighter than might be implied by existing forecasts for overall consumer …

Today’s Credit Conditions survey from the Bank of England showed that the supply of mortgage finance appears to be slowly improving, but does not change our view that further price falls are very likely. The survey, along with the latest CIPS/Markit …
