Our guest Benjamin Martin-Henry, Head of Real Estate Research, Pacific with Real Capital Analytics (MSCI), returns to APJ’s Talking Property, and chats to Nelson Yap about the Australian Capital Markets.
- Rising interest rates and cost of debt, the impact on the market.
- The relative value of retail investments is great, they have become cheaper over the last few years, so investors are piling back in.
- Office investments rose, industrial remains strong but there is a lack of stock to satisfy the wave of capital.
- All eyes have been on the industrial market, but the healthcare property sector performance has been almost on par.
- Appetite for alternative real estate sectors such as pubs, student accommodation, how will the seniors housing sector evolve?
- Construction starts are down 60-70%, across all property sectors.
- The build-to-rent sector continues to grow with around 40,000 units in various stages of development, are master-planned build-to-rent communities the next evolution?
