Since the launch of the CBRE Sustainability Index in 2023, energy efficient commercial property assets in the UK have continually underperformed in terms of total returns and capital growth, when compared to energy efficient assets. Since publishing the first Index results last November, all energy efficient commercial property assets have recorded total returns of 11.2%, compared to 7% for the inefficient sample. At Clearbell, we’re continuing to prioritise energy efficient upgrades to our assets, not just because of this performance gap, but because we know this is the future of the commercial property market. It’s also important that less efficient buildings aren’t neglected, with retrofitting remaining an important tool for developers to improve sustainability credentials while also ensuring the longevity of the asset. https://bit.ly/3B6hIgC #EnergyEfficiency #Sustainability #Retrofitting

In positive news for the office sector, a new report conducted by Centre for Cities has found that the average full-time central London worker spent more than half the week – 2.7 days – in the office in June 2024, an increase on the 2.2 days recorded in April 2023. This comes after more of London’s employers have introduced office mandates in the last year, with just 7% of London’s office workers not instructed to be in the office at all during June 2024. Although hybrid working seems to be here to stay, this changing employee behaviour could reap benefits for a previously depressed office market. https://bit.ly/3TlJjRk #London #OfficeSector

Retail property investment prospects are looking brighter, as figures from the British Retail Consortium have shown improved footfall during August - a result of good weather and easing inflation. Total UK retail footfall fell by 0.4% in August year-on-year, compared to an annual drop of 3.3% in July, and marking it as the best monthly figure in over a year, following consistent reductions over the past 12 months. Key to improved figures was an uplift in visitors to retail parks, which increased by 2.6% in August, a strong recovery from minus 0.8% the previous month. The boost is bringing renewed confidence to retailers, especially as we enter the busiest retail period of the year. https://bit.ly/3X2o9IE #Retail #Footfall #RetailParks

According to research from Savills, the UK is experiencing a surge in commercial property investment, buoyed by recent interest rate cuts. Cross-border investment hit $14 billion in the first half of 2024, surpassing both the USA and European markets. With the Bank of England's base rate reduction and growing confidence in the UK’s economic stability, more capital is expected to flow into the market by Q4 2024. Retail rental values are also rebounding, joining industrial and office sectors in positive growth. https://bit.ly/473jOJU #InvestmentTrends #UKMarket #ClearbellCapital

Last month, our Managing Partner, Rob West, joined a roundtable on the future of the office sector, hosted by Montagu Evans. The event brought together industry leaders to discuss pressing challenges such as economic urbanisation, the impact of environmental and design obsolescence, and the changing trends in hybrid and remote work. Rob shared his insights into these discussions, which will inform upcoming Montagu Evans research and shape the future of the evolving office landscape.
Last week, we hosted an enlightening roundtable discussion on office obsolescence where industry leaders gathered to discuss the dynamic shifts affecting the office sector. The conversations leaned on diverse perspectives from various specialisms, aiming to unpack three key topics ahead of the launch of our exclusive research on this subject in September: 1️⃣ The Urbanisation of the Economy 2️⃣ Environmental and Design Obsolescence 3️⃣ The Impact of Hybrid and Remote Working Thank you to our guests Adrian Sancroft, Bill Page, Ed Marsh, Kerri Hunter, Kevin McCauley, Rob West, Stephen Walker, and Zoe Gray for your invaluable insights, which will help shape our research as we navigate the evolving office landscape. Additionally, a big thanks to our team - Jon Neale, Simon Rogers, Jenny Rydon, Tom Paton-Smith, Kate Falconer Hall, Oli Pye and Louisa Smith for contributing to a great dialogue.

The UK’s commercial real estate market is recovering faster than the rest of Europe after a two-year downturn. Recent market research found that deal volumes and property values in the UK increased in the first half of 2024, while in Germany and France, Europe’s biggest markets after the UK, dealmaking failed to pick up. Explaining the lift, industry executives and agents said the UK had benefited from hopes for political stability after the general election, stronger economic prospects, rising rents and a more moderate run-up in prices between Brexit and the market’s peak in 2022. https://bit.ly/4dGVHDe #CommercialProperty #DealVolumes #Market
