  Talking Property: The House View Q3 2026

  Jul 21, 202624 minS7

  In this third edition of The House View for 2026, Phil Rowland and Sameer Chopra revisit the Australian real estate outlook after a volatile first half shaped by geopolitical uncertainty, sticky inflation, higher interest rates and the Federal Budget. Despite these headwinds, the Q2 data points to a more resilient market than many expected. Investment activity rebounded, leasing demand remained strong in key office markets, cap rates were broadly stable, and rent growth continued to surprise on the upside - particularly for prime, well-located assets. Phil and Sameer explore why fundamentals such as supply and demand continue to matter most, how a constrained development pipeline is supporting rent growth, and what the Federal Budget could mean for private capital flows into commercial real estate. They also discuss the impact of AI on office demand, the outlook for construction costs and economic rents, and why access to quality stock in quality locations remains a defining theme for occupiers and investors. The episode closes with Sameer’s key predictions for the second half of 2026.

  Jul 7, 202625 minS7

  In this special edition of Talking Property, the first to be recorded in front of a live audience, CBRE's Global Head of Research, Dr Henry Chin, explores the forces reshaping global real estate. From the outlook for global capital flows and investor sentiment to the growing influence of AI, data centres and productivity challenges, Henry shares his perspective on where the biggest opportunities and risks are emerging. The conversation also revisits Henry's well-known comment that Australia was in "La La Land" two years ago when it came to asset repricing, and whether his view has changed amid shifting market conditions.  Tune in for insights on supply and demand dynamics, the global flight to quality, return-to-office trends, and what investors, occupiers and developers should be watching over the next 6–12 months.

  Is this Australia’s most in-demand retail sector?

  Jun 24, 202629 minS7

  Large Format Retail (LFR) has come a long way from its early “big box” beginnings. Once considered a more volatile, discretionary retail asset class, the sector is now attracting stronger attention from investors, landlords and retailers - supported by resilient consumer demand, low vacancy, constrained new supply and more than $100 billion in annual retail sales.  CBRE’s National Director of LFR Leasing, Shane Cook, and CBRE’s Pacific Head of Retail Property Management, Sheree Griff, unpack what’s driving the sector’s momentum in this latest episode of Talking Property. They discuss why LFR is increasingly becoming a convenience and lifestyle story, how tenant demand is evolving across wellness, pet, entertainment and home categories, and why new concepts such as Kmart Home and Restoration Hardware point to the next phase of growth. They also explore the sector’s investment appeal, the impact of planning and supply constraints, and why physical retail remains highly relevant in categories where consumers still want to see, touch, compare and experience products in person.
