Melbourne Industrial Market - Up, Up and away...
The Melbourne industrial property market was certainly dynamic and strong performing in the 2016 – 2017 financial year. The increase in enquiries was dramatic, with realcommercial.com.au recording a 37% increase in visits and a 16% increase in leads compared to 2015 – 2016.
During the Fourth quarter of 2017, according to Knight Frank’s Vacancy Report, within Melbourne’s industrial property market:
-
Available space fell by 7.8%
-
Prime vacant stock decreased by 8.7%
-
Speculative space under construction accounted for 13.7% of available stock
-
Gross take-up was 24.3% greater than equivalent period in 2016.
This shows significant strength and mirrors what we have been experiencing on the ground — a substantial increase in transactions. In the 2017 financial year, Rutherfords transacted (sold or leased) more than 280,000m2 of industrial space in Melbourne — a very impressive result for a relatively small team.
The good news seems set to continue, with a high number of enquiries and overall confidence boosting the market. We expect another outstanding year in the industrial property market.
