Rent growth was solid in both the C5W and the 23W, with the latter leading the way over the quarter and year. That said, given current market conditions, growth looks likely to pause until the impact of COVID-19 becomes clearer.

•  Rent growth in the Tokyo 23 wards (23W) was solid during Q1/2020. Rents now stand at JPY4,155 per sq m – an increase of 2.7% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) and 5.8% year-on-year (YoY).
• A verage mid-market rents in the central fi ve wards (C5W) continued their ascent towards JPY5,000. They are now at JPY4,928 per sq m after growth of 1.8% QoQ and 5.4% YoY.
• T he C5W saw its premium over the 23W average contract to around 19%. Elsewhere, discounts widened in most other submarkets.

As we move further into the Covid-19 crisis and transaction activity continues to dwindle, investors are becoming increasingly concerned about market liquidity. Given the long-term nature of commercial real estate investment one should expect a certain amount of cyclicality during the period of ownership. However, at times of extreme stress the need for liquidity becomes paramount in order to preserve cash and lock in performance.

With 2019 being an average year in terms of new office supply, amid the intense competition for space, Grade A office vacancy in the C5W was close to nil. Meanwhile, underpinned by solid corporate profit growth – particularly in the technology sector – rents continued their upswing. Specifically, by year end, average Grade A rents in the C5W had reached JPY37,373 per tsubo per month – an increase of 8.0% year-on-year (YoY). Indeed, fundamentals appeared solid heading into the new decade, only for the COVID-19 outbreak to scupper the sector’s previously optimistic prospects.

国内経済の減速、世界経済の不確実性、そして米中貿易戦争の長期化を背景に、2019年、中華圏のホテル業界は低迷しました。北京、上海、深圳、香港を含む主要都市において、五つ星ホテルの平均客室単価（ADR）は縮小し、上海、深圳、香港では客室稼働率が低下しました。マカオではADRは依然として若干の上昇にとどまりましたが、客室稼働率は低下しました。ホテル業界の低成長は、新型コロナウイルス感染症の流行によってさらに悪化し、2020年上半期もこの傾向が続くと予想されます。. 

Commercial property prices pushed higher in the majority of leading global metros in the first quarter of 2020, the latest RCA CPPI Global Cities report shows, with the Covid-19 crisis not yet hitting sale prices. The headline rate of global price growth eased to 2.3% from a year ago and dipped 0.2% from the prior quarter, but most of the weakness came from declines already underway in Asia Pacific.
