MARKET COMMENTARYThe south east occupational market, and the western M25 sector in particular has seen a resurgence of activity during the last 6 months as occupier confidence has returned and tenants seek to move before rental incentives fall further.In the nearby centre of Uxbridge for example prime rents are now estimated at c. £30 per sq ft. Whilst the subject park has enjoyed a resilience from the wider letting market, it is also well placed to benefit from the wider improvement inmarket conditions and offers excellent potential for rental growth.High quality, south east office investments continue to be highly sought after and pricing continues to harden.
