The commercial property market in the UK is witnessing huge growth in investor confidence following a year of positive returns.
Alongside rising rental returns and increased investor confidence, the Independent Property Databank recently revealed a 16.9 per cent rise in the UK quarterly property index.
The latest figures from the Investment Management Association show that the commercial property sector was the third most popular with investors in June, jumping from seventh the previous month.
Investors are also reporting that commercial property funds have delivered an average return of 10.83 per cent over the past 12 months.
But the sector is not totally recovered, with experts suggesting a possible future fall in commercial property prices, leading to investors hunting for advice on what to do next.
Philippa Gee, managing director of Philippa Gee Wealth Management says, “Commercial property should be a part of an overall portfolio for investors who are willing to take a degree of risk. So perhaps it is not for the most cautious investors, but it is worth being considered by those with higher risk tolerances.
“It can help to give a well-balanced portfolio, to help investors work through different investment climates and should work best when set up alongside cash, bonds, equities and commodities,” she added.
