  • Malaysia- Kuala Lumpur- Office Q3 2020
    M A R K E T B E AT KUALA LUMPUR Office Q3 2020 YoY 12-Mo. Record Economic Contraction in Q2 Chg Forecast Malaysia’s economy shrank by 17.1% y-o-y in Q2 2020, a worse than expected outcome. This was the first contraction since the third quarter of RM6.03 2009, and the steepest fall since the fourth quarter of 1998 Asian Financial Crisis. The sharp downturn reflects the dire impact of domestic and global Average Asking Rent (MYR/sf/mo) measures taken in Q2 to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, with the closure of non-essential businesses and social distancing implemented. Tourism, manufacturing and investment were among the primary sectors hit by the lockdown imposed in the middle of March. Some -1.31% sectors are still struggling to cope in the aftermath of the suspension of economic activity during the Movement Control Order (MCO) period. The Rental Growth (YOY) Government has also announced the extension of the Recovery Movement Control Order (RMCO) from August 31 to December 31 in response to a resurgence in new daily cases. 22.7% Vacancy Rate Leasing Activity Remains Stagnant Source: IVPS / Cushman & Wakefield Research Office leasing demand in Kuala Lumpur remained sluggish at the end of Q2. The situation is expected to persist, with most firms adapting to a new normal of staff working from home or rotating between remote and in-office working. With office spaces under-utilized, more firms are anticipated to reduce their leased space to match their office needs, or to relocate to reduce their occupier costs where possible.

According to AmInvestment Bank: The real estate market is projected to be flat in 2018 with developers inclined to sell more affordable homes despite the low margins attained from the segment. A “neutral” rating has been given to the property sector and the research house has warned that margins should shrink further due to stiff competition as developers shift towards affordable homes. The soft consumer sentiment and rising living costs have not helped either with other issues such as high property prices, buyers’ inability to qualify for mortgage due to high debt service ratios and low loan-to-value or financing margin offered by banks, continuing to hinder the sector from recovering in the next 12 months.
