Definitions (in alphabetical order)

Prime Rent - represents the typical “achievable” open market headline rent which an international retail chain would be expected to pay for a ground floor retail unit of up to 200 sqm commensurate with demand in each location. It is assumed that the occupier will also be agreeing to a package of incentives that is typical of the market at the time.

Prime Yield – represents the yield which an investor would receive when acquiring prime property in a prime location (CBD or major urban intersection, for example), which is fully let at current market value rents. Prime Yield should reflect the level at which relevant transactions are being completed in the market at the time but need not be exactly identical to any of them, particularly if transaction flow is very limited or made up of unusual one-off transactions. If there are no relevant transactions during the survey period a hypothetical yield is quoted and is not a calculation based on particular transactions, but it is an expert opinion formed in light of market conditions, but the same criteria on building location and specifications still apply.

Shopping center - a retail property that is planned, built and managed as a single entity, comprising units and “communal” areas with a minimum gross leasable area (GLA) of 5,000 sqm and offering good quality tenant-mix, at least 50% of which should consist of chain retailers.

Under Construction - represents the total amount of gross leasable area of properties where construction has commenced on a new development or in existing properties where a major refurbishment/renovation is ongoing at the survey date. This is where site works (foundation works) have begun or the ground has been broken (excavation works). It does NOT include demolition, sites being cleared for possible development in the future, or site preparation works where no specific development plans have been approved.
