  • SYDNEY CBD OFFICE Market Overview
    RESEARCH APRIL 2011 SYDNEY CBD OFFICE Market Overview HIGHLIGHTS • Many landlords took the opportunity to complete refurbishment programs on vacant buildings over 2010 in an effort to reposition the asset and boost market appeal. In contrast the majority of space coming online in 2011 and 2012 are new developments which have been underpinned by major tenant commitments and equity injections. Recent confidence about future take-up has also led to many developers/owners reigniting development pipelines in an effort to continue to grow their prime portfolios into the future. • Face rents in the CBD have stabilised, with some modest growth recorded in select assets over the past six months. Incentives have begun to contract, in particular for Premium assets and should retract sharply once tenant demand gains momentum and the excess vacant space is absorbed. Average prime gross effective rents are projected to grow by 10% per annum over the next three years, returning to their peak (mid 2008) levels by mid 2013. • Investor interest increased from late 2009 and continued throughout 2010 with $1.9 billion worth of transactions transpiring over the year to January 2011. The increased appetite from off-shore groups in 2009 and H1 2010 was followed by the return of the domestic players (including super funds, unlisted funds and private equity funds). This culminated in twelve major sales (above $10 mill) transacting since July 2010, with a total value of $1.05 billion.
