Malaysia’s economy continued to grow albeit at a slower<br />

rate than originally forecasted. In Q2 2011, GDP expanded<br />

by 4.4% driven by the services sector as the main contributor.<br />

Real estate and business services recorded robust growth<br />

(8.2%) during the first half of 2011 driven by stock market<br />

trading and computer services. Malaysia is confident it will<br />

achieve a moderate 5.0% economic growth in 2011 despite<br />

worsening external conditions, with domestic demand<br />

expected to contribute to economic growth under ETP and<br />

the 10th Malaysia Plan.<br />

The global financial crisis and large supply of office space that<br />

is currently in the pipeline is expected to deter any significant<br />

increases in office rents. Nevertheless, new buildings with<br />

MSC status or green building certification are expected to<br />

perform better in securing tenants and attracting higher rents.<br />

The government’s initiative to attract 100 multinational<br />

companies will subsequently increase the overall net absorption<br />

rate of office space. The average rents for newer Class A<br />

buildings in Kuala Lumpur city range from MYR 8.00 to MYR<br />

11.00/SF. Current office vacancy rates stand at 13%. Office<br />

transactions in 2011 included the sale of One Mont’ Kiara<br />

(completed by Zerin Properties), Menara Multi Purpose, Wisma<br />

Goldhill and Putra Place for a total of 1.1734 billion SF.<br />

The industrial property sector picked up with strong demand<br />

from foreign investors. Vacancy rates remain very low while<br />

rents have been stable. There is a new trend for clean,<br />

boutique type industrial facilities.<br />

The retail sector was strong in 2011, largely driven by<br />

consumer spending and improved economic conditions.<br />

Overall, the retail subsector grew by an average of 7%.<br />

A retail mall, One Mont Kiara, sold for MYR 219 million<br />

(completed by Zerin Properties) with three other malls sold,<br />

namely Klang Parade, Ipoh Parade and Seremban Parade for<br />

MYR 450 million.<br />

Development land transactions have been active with average<br />

land prices in the city ranging from MYR 1,500 to MYR<br />

3,000/SF.<br />

The Kuala Lumpur hospitality sector performed well during<br />

Q3 2011. All the three categories (3-Star, 4-Star and 5-<br />

Star), recorded marginal increase for both occupancy and<br />

average room rates. The average occupancy rates for 3-<br />

Star, 4-Star and 5-Star hotels were recorded at 70%, 61%<br />

and 69% respectively. Average room rates for 3-Star, 4-Star<br />

and 5-Star hotels during Q3 2011 were RM 162, RM 240<br />

and RM 380 respectively.<br />

Auckland’s commercial real estate market is suffering from<br />

a severe shortage of investment properties, however, the<br />

forthcoming general election and potential double dip global<br />

recession has not dampened investor demand. Recent<br />

auctions of industrial investments below $1.5 million with<br />

term leases showed yields of 7.0% to 7.6%; this is an<br />

improvement of 50 basis points compared to the same time<br />

in 2010.<br />

New development for non-speculative industrial and retail<br />

projects are showing some green shoots. New projects are<br />

underway in the industrial areas of Albany, West Auckland<br />

and South Auckland and industrial vacancies have fallen to<br />

around 5% with the three year hiatus on development<br />

activity and increased leasing activity keeping the vacancy<br />

rates stable.<br />

The retail sector has low vacancies across the region, but<br />

tenant demand remains relatively flat in competitive trading<br />

conditions. There is an increase of fixed rent reviews enabling<br />

landlords to maximize income returns and tenants to fix<br />

operating costs. The influx of around 100,000 tourists for the<br />

Rugby World Cup has produced significant spending in the<br />

hospitality sectors but little impact on other retail spending.<br />

Prime retail rentals are stable but the recession has seen store<br />

closures in secondary retail locations however, Westfield<br />

continues to expand their malls in Newmarket and Albany.<br />

Tight lending conditions and the time taken to obtain<br />

resource consent have slowed land sales with prices falling<br />

up to 50% and sales ranging from $150 to $350/SM across<br />

the industrial sector.<br />

Office vacancies across the CBD remain around 12% with<br />

the highest vacancy in Class B & C office buildings. Class A<br />

space has been taken up in the sublease market and<br />

vacancy is less than 5% with total vacancy approximately<br />

140,000 SM. Premium rentals are around $480/SM and<br />

incentives range from 10% to 17%. Auckland office supply<br />

is expected to increase an additional 80,000 SM in the next<br />

three to four years leading to a forecast vacancy of 16% in<br />

2015. Prime face rentals and yields are expected to stabilize<br />

and forecast improvements in the business and employment<br />

sector should absorb a sizeable portion of the vacant space.<br />

Confidence in New Zealand’s resilience to the global<br />

economic forecasts have seen some significant transactions<br />

by local and offshore investors recently, including the Hyatt<br />

Regency Hotel for $60 million and the Apex Retail Centre<br />

also for $60 million.<br />
