2020 was a challenging year for Philippine real estate and the global property market, but we see the new year as a promising time for sectors such as industrial & logistics, office, residential, REITs, and data centers, among others. The industrial & logistics sector was the most stable asset class in the past year, and there are huge opportunities in the e-commerce and the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines. The office sector is likely to perform better than 2020, while we anticipate residential real estate to exhibit a slow but gradual rebound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2021, macrotrends such as the boom of e-commerce, flexible office setups, and continued decentralization outside Metro Manila
are likely to continue and contribute to the property market\u2019s soft recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Philippine population, which has grown at 1.5% on average each year since 2015, is key to recovery. This growth has created a \u201cdemographic sweet spot\u201d and continues to drive consumption and, in particular, the expansion of online retail and the related logistics platforms. The young Philippine population will also continue to keep the country at the forefront of the global BPO industry as outsourcing continues to increase.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true},"kh_category":[16],"class_list":["post-4263","knowledge-hub","type-knowledge-hub","status-publish","hentry","kh_category-market-outlook"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
