There is a growing international presence on all the sectors of the market of commercial properties. The general trend is to increase the requirements for the size and to return the international investors in Bulgaria.
OFFICES
Our agency believes that regardless of the location of the business, most important is the human resource. The presence of young and educated people combined with the costs for risk and the political factors, determinate the choice for location.
There is a clear trend with the choice of office. At the moment leading companies aren`t from the financial sector, but from the technology and media sphere. This gives great opportunities for development on the Bulgarian market.
On one hand new companies from the technology sector can be attracted, and on other companies from the financial sector arising from their main markets and various processes for optimization.
The global trends on the Bulgarian market can be seen even now. The part of IT and outsourcing sector, the use of end-users in offices has increased from 40% in 2012 to 52% in the first nine months of 2014 year.
The big demand of quality areas has turned the office areas in a leading sector of the real estates. The demand continues to increase but the expansion and extensions of lease contracts prevails.
During the third quarter of 2014 the investment market had been most active compared to the falls from 2009 to the beginning of 2014.
Commercial properties
Several world trends in the trade.
The commercial chains prefer to expand in the big, well developed towns in countries where they already exist. The interest in small, undeveloped towns is smaller.
The new markets first test online trading, develop new channels, methods for sale and delivery.
Bulgaria doesn`t make exception to those trends. The international retailers continue their expansions in the most important locations. In future the network will be developed in the existing shopping centers and streets due to a weakening in the new construction.
The demand of areas in the shopping centers continues to be stable and the tenants continue to dictate their conditions.
Rents remain high despite of the large choice.
Bulgaria provides opportunities for invest in undervalued assets in the commercial segment.
The trends in the global trade segment doesn`t exclude to affect the logistics segment — their desire to be closer to the customer and to shorten the delivery time is larger.
