The impact of the 2009 global recession was fully experienced by the whole world. Local and regional economies were greatly affected by the downfall of real estate investments. Probable transactions declined and current transactions become stagnant. Retailers and investors had no to choice but to cut down their costs. They opted to just observe what is happening in the worlds economy, and just wait until something good happens.
Actually, real estate market transactions started to decline in 2008. Since then, the world didnt recover from this because the next year brought about higher unemployment rates and economic uncertainty.
The downfall of the commercial and retail industry didnt last for good. Soon after, the world has recovered from the recession. A lot of market sectors started to become stable, including the real estate investment sector. Some retailers and investors grabbed the chance to avail real estate spaces. An economic equilibrium is expected this year. These visions for the economy and industry in 2010 brought about big hopes to almost all regions in the world.
In United States, the residential sector experienced the great impact of global recession. Commercial real estate was greatly affected because vacancy rates rose and rental rates started to fall. Market transactions were weak because of less demand on sublease space. The retail market was also affected. Retailers were bankrupt because of rising vacancy rates in regional malls and hotels. This has been the reason why retailers chose to close. The industrial and manufacturing sector also suffered due to the global recession. Industrial sectors need warehouse spaces. Manufacturing sectors needed raw materials for production. However, due to rising costs, some sectors opted to vacate their warehouses and stop their operation.
In Europe, real estate investment transactions are now improving. Its economy is slowly and positively recovering from the effects of the global recession. However, Europe is faced by two major issues. The first issue is whether the government assistance projects will affect the economic rise of Europe. The second issue is concerned with the financial system of Europe. In this case, the financial stability of Europe is in question. The coping capabilities of the financial system of Europe should accompany the increasing debts and mortgage of real estates.
The world may be growing economically but real estate investors may be left behind. This may result to unemployment and eventually, the deterioration of real estate market.
On the other hand, Asia had a different approach in coping up with the global recession. The threats on the deterioration of real estate market in Asia brought about the real estate investors in seeking safety. This year, Asian investors will focus on transacting with mainstream property sectors. Mainstream property sectors are proven to be more stable and are higher-yielding.
Asia has been also been known to be a region focusing on environmental improvement. Real estate investments are also affected by environmental issues. Issues such as rising oil prices and global warming, influence the decision of retailers and investors. Environmental real estates are more likely to be favored by retailers and investors.
The effects of global recession are also directly experienced by countries surrounding a region. An example of this is the Middle East. Middle East has become the center of world affairs. Throughout the years, the region has been a home to various economic transactions. It has maintained its economic, political, cultural and religious stability. This stability has continued to prevail despite of the diversity of the Middle East economy. The region is widely known to be exporters of oil and oil-related products. This high economic foundation of the Middle East is brought about by strategic and efficient banking.
The regions of Middle East should try hard to boost up their tourism. Hotel and leisure facilities have been fixed by the government and private sectors. Culture is also promoted in the tourism development of the region. They have also tried to improve the hotel occupancy of the regions. A lot of five star hotels have been put up in various regions of Middle East. The most affordable and most convenient hotels are offered to the visitors coming to the region.
On the other hand, the residential market of Middle East is sustainable at a healthy level. People residing in the regions of the Middle East put a great importance in the quality of life. The rising of regional malls and hotels was accompanied by the development of residential facilities. Residential market transactions have relatively increased.
However, the residential sector of the Middle East is feared to fall down if people will lose their jobs. This is very evident in the Middle East because unemployment rates are still increasing. Consequently, if people have the capability to pay their rents, vacancy rates will decrease. Rental rates will increase but the likelihood of people purchasing their owned apartments will decrease.
Most countries in the Middle East are considered to be primary exporter of oil and oil related products. In Bahrain, oil is seen to be the most important fundamental factor in the rising economy of the country. Oil and oil-related products remain to have the biggest share in the Gross Domestic Product of Bahrain. However, Bahrain, like other countries in the Middle East, fails to further boost up its economic growth because of tourism. The region has a relatively weak tourism brought about by the small proportion of population who are actively involved with tourism.
Oman is regarded as the one of the hot spots in tourism in Middle East. The real estate investment market in Middle East has experienced a major development. Oman received a great advantage in this development. The rise of regional malls and retail zones brought about increase in real estate investments. Oman has attracted a lot of consumers and retailers. This new environment has encouraged more international investors. Real estate investments have accelerated because of international transactions. International retailers are considering expansion by boosting up its productivity. Some regions in Middle East have also been centers for urbanization, which accommodate more investments within customers and retailers.
The Middle East is expected to regain its real estate sector by stabilizing its economy. Prior to this, demand for retail space and office space is expected to increase. For example, in the Saudi Arabia, Grade A supplies are always in demand. The rising investments of Saudi Arabia require more refined supplies. However, unlike in some regions, there is a shortage of Grade A supplies and space. The solution to this problem is for the real estate investors to increase rental costs.
The office sector of Saudi Arabia faces a major problem if unemployment rates continue to increase. In a workplace, if the space occupied by employees will decrease because of unemployment, then, the demand for office space will also decrease.
The hospitality mechanisms of Saudi Arabia have been improved to accommodate the increasing number of visitors. Saudi Arabia has tried to develop its transport links to encourage its visitors. Infrastructure projects such as upgrading of airports are also prioritized.
An understanding of the potential opportunities and threats of the various market sectors in the economy, especially the real estate investment sector, is essential. Retailers and investors should try to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the market sectors in the economy.
