A three-equation simultaneous system is used to model the industrial property market in Great Britain. Strong relationships are found between new industrial building supply and both real rents and construction costs, and between rents, industrial floorspace availability and the gross domestic...

The present study constructs a model of retail rent determination at the aggregate level in the United Kingdom. While recognising the influence of very localised factors in the determination of retail rents, this paper explores the importance of broad economic forces and trends in the retail...

This article adopts an unrestricted vector autoregressive framework methodology to examine the cyclical activity of office property development in Great Britain. The empirical analysis provides supporting evidence for the significant influence of office rents on the rate of new office...

This study examines the cyclical pattern of retail property development in Great Britain. It develops and estimates an econometric model of the volume of new development starts for retail buildings. Within the theoretical framework proposed, a dynamic specification based on changes in real...

This paper employs a probit and a Markov switching model using information from the Conference Board Leading Indicator and other predictor variables to forecast the signs of future rental growth in four key U.S. commercial rent series. We find that both approaches have considerable power to...

The study provides empirical evidence of industrial land prices as a factor explaining variations in industrial rents in local markets. Evidence is obtained from the estimation of a regression model of rents in six markets in the United Kingdom using King Sturge data. The conclusion is that...

This study estimates models of industrial rents at the national level in Great Britain. James Lan Wooten and CB Hillier Parker rent indices are used to model changes in real rents. These changes are positively related to changes in real GDP and inversely affected by absorption, as measured by...
