The Colliers CRE Research & Forecasting department provides expert advice and a wide range of specialist services including a property market forecasting capability to clients and other departments within the company.
With its origin dating back to the 1980s, the department has established an enviable reputation in the market. Fundamental to its success has been its focus on providing bespoke, research-based solutions to clients across a diversity of property sectors. Our value is in our ability to analyse, interpret and advise, bringing together a broad combination of skills including economics, geography, property, planning and investment experience.
Research
We produce a wide range of research reports in support of the Colliers CRE business. Our renowned retail sector research continues to evolve with 'health check' reports for London and a range of national town centres due to be launched this year. Our Net Stock Absorption office research is at the leading edge and provides a unique insight into the health of the London and UK regional office markets. Publications also provide a detailed insight into specialist sectors such as hotels, healthcare and leisure.
Forecasting
Our forecasting team has developed an in-house (IPD-based) model that forecasts the rental growth, capital growth and total returns for the main sectors of the UK property market five years ahead. The team publishes its forecasts in the quarterly REIF report (Real Estate Investment Forecasts).
Consultancy
The department has an enviable track record of providing value-added advice to a wide range of clients, including local authorities, developers, land owners, investment institutions and retailers. Our strong reputation in the property field is reflected in our work for central government departments, through regular repeat business and requests to act as an expert witness at public inquiries. The team works closely with other Colliers CRE departments, Locum and Colliers International. The last 2 years has seen increasing involvement in international consultancy projects in Ireland, Serbia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Georgia and Albania.
We advise clients across a broad range of property sectors, subjects and geographies. Recent reports include economic studies, strategy plans, need/capacity assessments, location studies, feasibility and impact analyses and consumer/market research.
Members of the Research team write articles for the trade press, give radio/TV interviews and speak at conferences and client events to raise the profile of the company.
