The UK Commercial Property Market Report 2022 identifies consumers’ attitudes towards sustainability when it comes to building design, the impact of global crises and supply chain issues on the commercial real estate industry, and the impact of post-pandemic practices on the Commercial Property Market in the UK. This report covers the UK commercial property market size, market forecast, market segmentation and industry trends for the UK Commercial Real Estate market.
The UK commercial property market shows good recovery, supported by capital value growth across key sectors, including improvement in occupier demand in office and retail sectors. However, our UK commercial property report shows that economic headwinds and surging costs may dampen occupier performance. The industrial and alternative sectors continue to attract the strongest investor interest, while positive sentiment in prime office and certain retail assets also continues.
Moreover, the adoption of WFH practices during the pandemic is having a lasting impact on the commercial property market in the UK, with many companies adopting hybrid working models. This has raised uncertainties around future levels of office occupation and is expected to lead to an overall decline in office space requirements and greater demand for more flexible office leases.
According to our commercial property research UK, demand for prime regional offices is increasing and driven by the government’s commitment to “levelling up” the UK economy. Investors are therefore expected to continue to target long-income opportunities, with assets classes such as warehouses, data centres, healthcare, retirement living, and mixed-use assets to remain popular.
In the short term, our UK commercial property market forecast predicts that occupier performance in the office and retail sectors may be tempered by the more uncertain economic outlook and surging costs. While the industrial sector is not insulated from the economic and geopolitical headwinds, demand for high quality, well-placed warehouses is expected to remain strong due to online sales that demand for fulfilment space. Global supply chain issues are also set to support demand as companies invest in warehouse space to combat supply chain disruption and to be closer to their customers in the UK.
Our UK commercial property report predicts that mixed-use spaces are set to be a key trend over the coming years. Sustainability credentials of buildings are also becoming increasingly important to investors and occupiers across all asset classes, as ESG factors move up corporate agendas.
Commercial property companies are recognising the growing focus on ESG, with these factors now playing a crucial role in building design. For landlords, considerations are likely to revolve around improving the thermal performance of buildings, incorporating renewable energy generation where suitable, installing EV charging stations and investing in smart building infrastructure

This report, written by Claudia Preedy, a leading analyst in the B2B sector, delivers in-depth commentary and analysis to highlight current trends in the UK commercial real estate market, and adds expert context to the numbers.
In a more uncertain economic and geopolitical environment, investors are turning risk-averse and shifting their focus to the longevity and durability of their income returns.
Property assets with long lease structures and strong rental covenants are therefore attracting attention as investors seize on opportunities to create long-term, secure, income-producing assets. This means asset classes such as warehouses, data centres, healthcare, retirement living and mixed-use assets will remain popular.
