The Central London Market Q1 2010 The market continued to strengthen in Q1 but amidst the more bullish tone there remained reasons for caution. Headline rents grew in the City and incentives hardened in both the City and West End. Take-up volumes over the first three months of 2010 were almost 60% greater than over the first six months of 2009. Supply fell 15% and the lack of new development suggests significant erosion over the rest of the year. Investment volumes were up 88% on the equivalent quarter of 2009 and further strong yield compression was witnessed. Amidst all this, though, was a shrinking pool of occupier requirements – demand was down 18% over the quarter. In addition, investment product grew sharply and concerns over upward yield movement in the medium term became more apparent. To access the report please click here or on the report image.
