"The focus of international and regional investors
remains on Australia and Japan where generous
cap rate spreads are supported by deep and liquid
markets. Elsewhere in the region, opportunities are
limited. The retail story is as compelling as ever,
particularly in first- and second-tier cities in China,
but hurdles to entry have curtailed deal volumes,
even as institutional-grade opportunities appear to
be increasing."

"Nationally, over A$10 billion of commercial property has been transacted which gives Savills Research confidence that the markets
are operating normally. The next year holds greater optimism – the yields on offer in investment markets are compelling as returns on fixed interest products dwindle. Commercial property yields in particular look very attractive."

"Consumer confidence is improving and the cyclical falls in interest rates are helping. Employment is growing strongly.
The high Australian dollar is keeping prices for goods low. Savills expects the retail sector to evolve to take advantage of the structural issues rather than be over-run by them."

"We believe that with supply of CBD Grade A office buildings limited in the coming three to four years, office rents will
rise rather than fall, aided by key landlords' control over current supply and stronger than normal holding power supported by the low interest rate environment. While this may appear conterintuitive to some observers, given the excess supply, one must keep in mind that 52% of this new supply is in areas outside the CBD."
