The business development of the property at a record rate of decline Say Savills Index of Savills' November of business development activity shows 13th consecutive monthly decline
The commercial property sector in the United Kingdom has continued to deteriorate at a faster pace last month, new research by Savills has shown.
Its total commercial development activity index fell in November for the 13th consecutive month, the rate of decline slightly higher than in October.
As the credit crisis began to bite, weakening occupier demand led to a new record low in series of development activities.
Nearly 58% of survey respondents Savills Commercial Property reported a decline in activity, only 7% against an increase of signaling.
The index showed a net balance of -50.3% in November, down -49.7% in October.
The faster reduction of activity was in private building new ones. Office development has been particularly affected. For the fifth time in 2008, however, smaller drop in activity was shown by the renovation.
November survey also found widespread pessimism about the outlook to three months of activity, with the degree of negative sentiment lowest since the survey began in March 2003.
Commercial developers have said they remain concerned about the extent to which the lower central bank rates may mitigate the slowdown in the short term because of the continued lack of credit availability, and a reluctance of customers to engage in new projects.
Commenting on the survey in November, Mat Oakley, head of Savills' Commercial Research, said the negative outlook was surprising: "The survey this month was surprising in the fact that the expectations of developers for the future continues to slide .
"Although the lack of debt is available is clearly a factor on the market slide, we expected 150bp cut the November base rate could give developers some confidence that the slowdown in occupier demand would be more shorter and shallower than it might have been, "he added.
About the property business in the United Kingdom
Although there are more than 20 portals covering residential property in the UK commercial property market is still relatively underserved, with no site having a majority share of the total available commercial property listed. The Internet has a significantly greater share of all ad spending each year, it continues to prove he is the most effective way for advertisers to reach their audiences.
The traditional methods of estate agency are quite successful in reaching the local market around a property, but do not lead on national and international markets at all good. With the increasing mobility of people and companies in the global village, it makes sense to expose properties business as efficiently as possible the whole market. In 2006, there were 6 million searches (based on figures from Yahoo Search) made on the Internet in the United Kingdom for commercial property of all types. Much of the research will be futile as the main search engines do not expose many properties available now.
