The Netherlands has witnessed a resurging investment market in the past three quarters. As a result, availability of prime
assets is declining. As perceived economic risk has diminished as well, investors appetite for risk has started to return. The
first steps on the risk curve have been towards value-add assets in the core markets of the G4 cities, in which particularly
private equity has been active. Now a shift towards the periphery of the G4 cities is visible, and it will be followed by a focus
on more regional office markets, most importantly the major provincial cities in the Netherlands. Some of these Den Bosch
and Eindhoven for example offer relatively liquid office markets with healthy prime districts. The scale of their available
asset pools is limited, but smaller-scaled opportunities are certainly to be found here.
Everywhere in Europe a discrepancy between the investment and occupier markets has emerged, but in the Netherlands the
gap is profound. Take-up figures are declining, although this is to a large extent offset by a rising volume of renegotiations.
The fact that vacancy does not go up much further also proves that it is not so much a matter of declining occupancy, but
rather one of low occupier mobility. On the other hand, vacancy rises have also been countered by an ongoing wave of
conversions in the G4 cities and net demand for office space is not expected to grow, even if the economic recovery is
sustainable. The ongoing restructuring of large office occupiers in the financial and business services sectors (banks,
insurers) is also reason for concern.
Increasingly visible is the concentration on the big cities, and particularly on their prime districts and inner city environments.
The growing demand for multi-functionality and a preferred work/leisure balance for office workers is increasingly
combining occupier demand in the office, retail and residential markets and funneling it to the largest inner cities, most
importantly Amsterdam.
