Retail Market in Minutes August 2024

We are pleased to launch our latest Retail Market in Minutes Report. In this edition, we provide an overview of recent macro developments, and investment market trends for the major retail property markets in Australia.

Key takeaways from the report:

  • The disparity between buyer and seller expectations continues to converge, facilitating market liquidity and an increase in deal flow in Q2.
  • Investment volumes (+$10m) reached c.$2.3 billion in Q2, marking a significant increase of 167% from the same quarter last year.
  • REITs and Institutions are actively divesting assets as part of their capital recycling strategies, aimed at reweighting portfolios, repositioning assets or funding developments.
  • Early indicators hint that prices may be nearing the cyclical bottom, bolstering investor confidence, and raising expectations for a further uptick in deal flow in Q3.
