Investor confidence up as all eyes turn to the London office space market

Posted Wednesday 10th November 2010

The latest Global Investment Sentiment Survey by Colliers International has thrown up a bunch of results that many UK commercial property agents had been hoping for – confidence amongst foreign investors is up and the trend is set to continue.

The survey focuses on how investors feel about the current state of the commercial property market in their region; as well as gauging their opinions on the short term future of the market.

Those respondents in Western Europe were some of the most optimistic – 62% were so confident about the market that they are considering making cross border investments in the coming months with the Central London office space market their top priority.

Many respondents also feel prime rental rates in the market will have finally bottomed out by Q2 2011 – making London an even more attractive punt for those already with one eye on the Capital.

Great news for the London office market then on the day the Capital’s premier commercial property project, The Shard near London Bridge, appointed four leasing agents to market its office space.
