Property returns to turn positive in 2021

After hitting a decade-low in 2020, we think that commercial property returns will turn positive in 2021, but any improvement is likely to be modest. This reflects the delayed recovery in the economy following tougher restrictions in Q1 and continued weakness in the retail sector. On 14th January, economists from across our property services will be holding an online briefing about the long-term outlook for the commercial and residential sectors as part of our ‘The Future of Property’ series. Details and complimentary registration are here.
