過去12個月，墨爾本中央商務區的新增辦公空間受到顯著限制。這導致供應短缺，尤其是大型租戶的辦公空間供應，並刺激了潛在租戶湧入市場以滿足其需求的壓抑需求。
Results for Q4 2017:
Knight Frank’s Asia-Pacific Prime Office Rental Index increased 0.7% quarter-on-quarter and 1.1% yearon-year in the last quarter of 2017.
The increase in the index was the result of rising rents in 12 of the markets over the quarter, with rental declines experienced in four of the 20 markets tracked.
Over the next 12 months, we expect rents in 16 cities out of the 20 tracked to either remain steady or increase, which is the same as our previous forecast.
We expect Singapore’s property market to stabilize and strengthen over 2018, supported by broad-based GDP growth and an expected multi-year upcycle in the office and residential markets.
Physical supply in office, residential and industrial sectors is also easing from the oversupply situation of past years. Capital flows should remain buoyant as we expect interest rates hikes to be benign, and yield spreads are relatively attractive. Barring external shocks, we project a general uplift in rents and capital values over 2018, primarily driven by the office and residential sectors.
