In this episode we discuss the West End and City commercial real estate investment volumes, the differences between the two markets and where we see opportunity.

Join our podcasters and partners, Nick Pemberton, Chris Room and host Ed Dunningham, from our West End Investment, City Investment and Valuation teams respectively, as they discuss a variety of topics including: 

• How do current transaction volumes compare to the long-term average?
• Where the opportunities and “hotspots” lie in the London market?
• What their favourite deals have been in the last 12 months?
• Are we still in a “price and discovery” period?
• “Location, location, location” – flight to quality and the importance of ESG and EPC ratings when refurbishing or redeveloping buildings
• What change of use for office conversions to beds may mean for Central London?

The podcasts presented here are for general guidance and represents opinions of our teams based on the property market at the time of recording. All details are correct at time of recording.
