While the world is  gearing to embrace lockdown exit strategies, real estate leaders are forecasting the wants and needs of consumers and tenants in order to price up, reposition and buy for a completely new cycle and post coronavirus world. Warehousing & Logistics real assets were  already enjoying a supply/demand upswing, now with consumers adapting to online, how will this translate to pricing, product and market positioning?
  • Pricing & Yields - How to be competitive in the already oversaturated market?
  • Rental Growth - Mapping a temporary spike or new reality? 
  • City Centre Logistics Supply - Impossible economics?
  • Value Add Opportunities to Reposition Distressed Office and Retail?
  • Tenant Demand - What assets and where?
  • Speculative Development & BTS - Too risky in a recession environment or liquidity never better?
  • Will the heightened supply chain risks introduce new long-term supply chain trends that could boost demand.? 
  • Are the customers going to reassess ideal inventory volumes and business continuity plans—which could translate to greater demand?
  • Will E-commerce rise in even greater importance in the basic functioning of everyday life?
  • Will this lead to diversifying manufacturing locations in the future ?
  • Will there be a strong shift to warehouse automation?
