INTRODUCTION
The coronavirus pandemic resulted in many businesses pausing their real estate decisions. With a large number of workplaces relying on employees working remotely, the commercial real estate sector saw a severe downturn, especially during the several months of lockdown.
Pre-commitments in new completions, and occupiers taking advantage of better deals while the market is down have led to an increase in market absorption. At this stage, consumer spending behaviour will be a key determinant of strategy calibration for landlords and developers.
In the edition of BTG Briefing, we will be discussing issues which companies should be looking at going forward. This includes latest legal/regulatory changes, and market trends, as well as renewed interest in areas, such as sustainable and green building. We will also be discussing the need for the real estate industry to adapt to the changing Future of Work.
