オフィス賃料の下落が続く中、テナントはより良い移転の選択肢を求め、当月のリース市場は活況を呈した。しかし、地主はテナント確保のため、アプローチをさらに軟化させ、より現実的なリース条件の交渉姿勢を採用したため、大半のテナントはリース契約を更新する傾向にあった。その結果、グレードAオフィスの新規取得は、特にCBDエリアにおいて、当月は異例の低水準となった。.

オフィス賃料の下落が続く中、テナントはより良い移転の選択肢を求め、当月のリース市場は活況を呈した。しかし、地主はテナント確保のため、アプローチをさらに軟化させ、より現実的なリース条件の交渉姿勢を採用したため、大半のテナントはリース契約を更新する傾向にあった。その結果、グレードAオフィスの新規取得は、特にCBDエリアにおいて、当月は異例の低水準となった。.

厳しい経済環境の中、テナントにとってコスト競争力は依然として喫緊の課題である。そのため、2021年に向けても分散化の傾向が続くと予想される。また、コロナウイルスによる不況の影響を大きく受けた中小企業を中心に、柔軟な賃貸オプションを積極的に検討する企業が増えるため、コワーキングスペースに対する需要も高まると予想される。.

It has been over a month since Thailand announced the state of emergency to combat the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The global pandemic has created disruptions to the Thai economy to the extent that the Bank of Thailand has had to revise the previous 2.8% GDP growth projection to a 5.3% contraction for 2020. We are seeing a variety of ways in which different organizations are responding to the crisis as part of the largest workplace experiment conducted to date. Some companies are…

It has been over a month since Thailand announced the state of emergency to combat the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The global pandemic has created disruptions to the Thai economy to the extent that the Bank of Thailand has had to revise the previous 2.8% GDP growth projection to a 5.3% contraction for 2020. We are seeing a variety of ways in which different organizations are responding to the crisis as part of the largest workplace experiment conducted to date.

Some companies are shuffling their staff, rotating their employees between entering the office and working from home schedules. Others have their entire staff working from home. This has radically impacted the way in which both organizations and employees work, especially in a country with a relatively high level of resistance to prior changes in the workplace. It has also led to many questions and judgements on the long-term impact that COVID-19 will have on the office property market, including those that radically proclaim the demise of the office.

The following dynamics are what we at Knight Frank and Peoplespace Thailand believe will shape the workplace as a result of COVID-19. COVID-19 most likely will not completely revolutionize or cause the death of the office. While the pandemic will lead to greater scrutiny and change in some prior market behavior, its most profound impact will be to drive and accelerate trends that were already underway for many of the leading office market participants.

“When virus-related restrictions ease, we expect to see the release of some pent-up demand, but this will reflect shifting preferences following the experience of the pandemic and extended working from home, with businesses all likely to take a different approach.”

We entered 2020 with cautious optimism as Asia-Pacific property markets remained relatively healthy and the phase one trade deal was signed between the US and China. Then COVID-19 struck, throwing markets into turmoil, and with it, knocking many of our previous forecasts off-course. This year has been dominated by the pandemic, with activity and performance of the various real estate asset classes linked to just how they have been impacted by the virus. As this report highlights, geographies and property types have all been influenced by lockdowns, restrictions, and the ensuing economic weakness. However, as we now look towards 2021 and the potential recovery it may bring, here are six trends that give a sense of what lies ahead:

As this report highlights, geographies and property types have all been influenced by lockdowns, restrictions, and the ensuing economic weakness. However, as we now look towards 2021 and the potential recovery it may bring, here are six trends that give a sense of what lies ahead:

1. Work-from-home experiment will leave a lasting impact
2. Logistics driven by e-commerce and supply chain security
3. Investors circling for distress may be disappointed
4. Monetary policy to remain supportive of residential markets
5. Real estate to contribute to the ‘Green Recovery
6. US-China relations to continue to be important for the region

Many occupiers are looking to reduce the total amount of office space they occupy, due to the preference for some employees to continue working from home following lockdown. This change in occupier preference, combined with the large amount of new supply, has resulted in occupiers looking to secure smaller office spaces within new developments, enabling them to increase the quality of their offices whilst also potentially reducing their total rent. This shift will have a severe impact on landlords of older buildings, however and it is likely that occupancy rates across the market will continue to fall.

With the eff ects of the pandemic looking likely to continue into 2021, Savills expects to see more occupiers looking to reduce their office space. Considering this along with the large amount of future supply completing over the next five years, it’s likely a large number of occupiers will seek to relocate into smaller units within newly completed office buildings.

The trade war between China and the US has pushed Taiwan’s tech and manufacturing companies to rethink their supply chain strategies which used to rely heavily on China. Taiwan’s tech industry saw a large wave of off shoring to China from 2000, especially the electronic component and computer sectors, resulting in four of China’s top 10 companies exporting to the US originating from Taiwan, including Foxconn, Quanta, Pegatron, and Compal Electronics. As the trade war tensions have escalated, Taiwanese companies are considering relocating production lines to Southeast Asia and Taiwan in order to diversify their manufacturing base.

Industrial land prices have increased steadily over the past five years owing to the strong demand from local end-users. Although the global economic outlook is gloomy, we believe that the average industrial land price could rise by 3% in 2020, especially in traditionally cheaper areas. As land prices in New Taipei City and Taoyuan have increased significantly, tech corporates have had to modify their factory expansion plans to focus on more affordable areas, such as industrial parks in middle and southern Taiwan. We reason that industrial land in those areas is expected to witness stronger price growth in the near future.
