Retail investments in the Netherlands during the first months of 2014 are already surpassing the total 2013 figures and will make up for the projected lower volumes in the office and industrial investment sectors, according to the latest research by Savills.
The property adviser's Market in Minutes report on the Dutch market notes that while economic growth projections have recently been revised further upwards and predict around 1% growth in the Netherlands, the occupier market is still recovering from the recession period and remains stable.
The investment market however started to gain speed in Q2 2013 and finally totalled €3.4 bn last year, a 27% increase compared to 2012.
In 2014 demand from investors will remain large and will spill over towards non-core assets, as supply in the prime segments becomes more limited.
