imbing again: Office asking rents have seen only modest

nominal growth since early 2020 (~7%), while real effective rents have declined

significantly against ~30% inflation. Overall performance has been weak, even for

higher-quality 4- and 5-star assets, which have delivered sub-4% cumulative growth.

However, this headline masks widening divergence across the market.Demand has

increasingly concentrated in premium, well-located buildings, driving sharp rent growth

and tightening availability in “trophy” and highly amenitized submarkets. This has led

to a K-shaped recovery, where top-tier assets in transit-oriented or prime locations are

seeing rents grow at or above inflation and in some cases reaching full occupancy, while

lower-quality, high-vacancy buildings continue to lag materially.Supportively, a lack of

new supply is tightening market conditions and beginning to ease pressure on effective

rents as concessions peak and start to reverse in some markets. Landlords with capital and

competitive space - especially those offering move-in-ready spec suites - are capturing

demand, while financially weaker owners face rising pressure. Looking ahead,

constrained supply should underpin broader rent growth, though elevated concessions

and tenant selectivity remain key dynamics. (Source: CoStar)
