According to property consultant Knight Frank, global housing markets continue to display healthy price growth in late 2023, despite the record rise in interest rates since late 2021. Across our basket of world cities, average prices only experienced a decline on a quarterly basis in the final quarter of 2022, after which prices have risen by 2.7%.
According to new research by Knight Frank, global super-prime ($10m+) residential sales fell 2.4% in Q3 2023 on a year-on-year basis, with 362 sales across the 12 markets covered in the three months to September compared to 371 in the same period last year.
Global commercial real estate investment declined by 51% year-over-year in Q3 to $142 billion. Investment fell by 53% in the Americas, 54% in Europe and 31% in Asia-Pacific. Rising interest rates in many countries contributed to the significant drop of investment activity.
According to a new report by global real estate consulting firm JLL, annual investment volume in multifamily residential in Asia Pacific is expected to more than double in size by 2030, with investments to potentially cross $20 billion by the end of the decade.
