Singapore Business Review’s Post

We see Shanghai rents bottoming out again but still gradually declining, led by very high vacancy rates at around 23%, in our latest APAC Marketplace report. However, the underlying recovery base is being driven by sectors like AI, autopilot technology, new energy, advanced manufacturing, and the EV market. Rents will continue to be soft in the short to medium term. But in the medium to long term, Shanghai will begin to grow out of these very high vacancies and rents will start to recover.  Does this align with your current experience, and how could it affect your business decisions in the near term? Let’s chat in the comments below.  Dive deeper with our full report here: https://lnkd.in/gNbDteXZ. 

It's just a matter of time, when the saturated Tier I cities will have to make way for Tier II cities with great connectivity and accessibility with a good strategic location like - #Agra I have been saying this since a year now, the time of Tier II is now. The entry point is the most crucial. Make a quick early entry - enjoy the long term gains otherwise the acquisition costs to enter will only climb up. Have a good day. https://lnkd.in/gMscpiec

Forecasting 2025 #CRE is tough. Tariff uncertainty. Rise of robotics. Cooling/heating economy. Industrial real estate’s rapid rate of change demands sharper insights. To help #CRE pros make sense of it all, our Savills Research team w/ Mark Russo applied scientific rigor to their process and dug deep. It’s not a data dump—it’s a compass to guide you and sharpen your instincts in 2025. Here’s how this research can help you: * Find hidden opportunities: Go deeper with your facility evaluations to uncover areas for improvement. * Make confident decisions: Leverage real-time market conditions for smarter acquisitions. * Stop guessing lease costs: Use precise data to compare lease comps and calculate true occupancy costs. * Future-proof your plans: Incorporate supply chain shifts into your real estate strategy. * Ask the right questions: Cut through complex market reports and focus on what matters. Here is what stood out to me > >>>Stabilizing Sublease Markets Sublease availability grew to 185M sq. ft. last quarter, but the slowdown finally signals stabilization in volatile markets like DFW and LA. >>>Unexpected Vacancy Trends In the #InlandEmpire, spaces over 1M sq. ft. are nearly fully occupied, while mid-sized spaces (200–500k sq. ft.) have 12% vacancy—it may be a sweet spot for tenants looking to gain some leverage. >>>Phoenix Oversupply Challenge With 29.4M sq. ft. under construction, Phoenix could face a 17.7% vacancy rate if demand doesn’t pick up. Speculative projects without pre-leasing agreements are a major factor. >>>Effective Rents Save Big Looking at effective rents instead of just asking rates can save tenants up to 15%. This is especially critical in cooling markets like Los Angeles.   >>>Onshoring Shapes Eastern Markets Industries like EVs, semiconductors, and biomanufacturing are driving growth in the Eastern U.S., fueled by government incentives and reshoring trends. If you're tired of wading through massive reports, this one’s for you. It’s practical, clear, and includes tools like the "Landlord-favourable versus tenant-favourable leases" formula to calculate Total Space Cost with precision.

Here is a quick response to the just-erupted discussion around a Design Policy for India. You might find it surprising that I've not pitched for even tighter integration/assimilation with industry, only because I think that's a done deal. Instead, I argue that design needs to go deeper down into the 'infrastructure layer' - i.e. those systems and institutions that underpin--and can make or break--social capital and social fabric. Do share your thoughts.
