Rental growth in Core CBD Grade A office market to slow in 2023

CBRE expects rents to only increase by 1.0% YoY.

Real estate expert, CBRE, has cut down its 2023 rental growth forecast for the Core CBD Grade A office market to 1.0% YoY, taking into account possible weaker demand conditions and economic growth.

CBRE's previous forecast was 4.0% YoY to 5.0% YoY.

On the flip side, CBRE said the softer market conditions in 2023 can be an "opportune time for occupiers to reset and reassess their office requirements."

In 2022, the market recorded a full-year growth of 8.3%, surpassing the rental growth of 3.8% in 2021.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
