MOMENTUM ACHIEVED IN 2015 WILL CONTINUE
Office leasing activity is being fuelled by a strong
technology sector and employment growth.
Overall, Australian CBD office markets recorded positive net absorption of 296,900 sqm for 2015.
Sydney and Melbourne are at the forefront of the office market recovery, recording above trend net
absorption results driven by strong employment growth. The momentum that we recorded in leasing
enquiry over 2015 points towards continued activity in most markets over the first part of 2016.
