Economic & Property Market Research

We deal with the mainstream & we specialise in the complex for all asset classes

Preston Rowe Paterson’s research approach to economic and property market analysis is both comprehensive and adaptive, covering mainstream and specialised aspects across all asset classes.
Our research process systematically evaluates economic trends, property values, market demand, and supply dynamics, utilising a broad spectrum of data including macroeconomic indicators, demographic changes, infrastructure projects, and regulatory developments.
This enables us to deliver actionable insights and strategic recommendations to clients, ensuring informed decision-making in the real estate sector.
Key economic statistics such as GDP growth, inflation rates, and employment figures are central to our analysis of investment real estate.
We recognise that strong GDP growth typically supports increased demand for both commercial and residential properties, while inflation and interest rates directly influence property values and investor returns.
Employment data is closely monitored to gauge market stability and growth prospects, with high employment often reflecting robust property demand and rental yields. By tracking these indicators, Preston Rowe Paterson helps investors anticipate market trends and navigate changing conditions effectively.
In development real estate, Preston Rowe Paterson’s research places emphasis on planning approvals, construction costs, and infrastructure investment, acknowledging that these factors are pivotal to the success of new projects.

“Development real estate demands more than a point in time valuation. Preston Rowe Paterson delivers considered advice that reflects feasibility, risk and future potential" - Daniel Saliba

Our ongoing analysis ensures developments are responsive to local market demand and aligned with broader economic trends, enhancing project viability and long-term value growth.
Leasing transaction research forms another cornerstone of our service, detailing prevailing rental rates, occupancy levels, and tenant demand. They provide in-depth analysis of lease incentives such as rent-free periods, fit-out contributions, and rental abatements highlighting their impact on headline and effective rents. Such scrutiny helps clarify market dynamics and supports more accurate benchmarking for both landlords and tenants.
Finally, Preston Rowe Paterson employs thorough investment sales analysis using Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) modelling. This enables the accurate assessment of asset value and future returns, accounting for risk and revealing true investment potential ensuring robust decisions in both stable and uncertain market environments.
