Last year’s peak investment levels to continue?
The most recent report by the global real estate adviser Cushman and Wakefield shows that £20.5 billion was invested into the UK commercial property market last year. The previous high peak was £20.6 billion in 2007, before the financial crash. In the final quarter of 2014, the investment in the City of London and Docklands reached its highest ever amount, at £5 billion. The third quarter figures reveal that the West End saw its best quarterly volume at £2.4 billion of deals.
