In the rapidly evolving landscape of corporate real estate, the burning question for businesses in 2024 is whether to stay put or seek greener pastures elsewhere. With lease expiries looming, proactive engagement with landlords becomes imperative to unearth opportunities that align with your business objectives.
The current market conditions in Sydney's CBD present a favourable climate for tenants. Landlords are offering shorter lease terms, adaptable workspaces, and enticing incentives to retain existing tenants or attract new ones. This competitive environment gives tenants the upper hand in negotiations, with incentives such as rental rebates of up to 50%, rent-free periods, and contributions towards fit-out enhancements on the table.

The Australia Office Outlook 2024, as projected by Cushman & Wakefield, offers insights into key office metrics across Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, and Sydney CBDs. Notably, while employment growth has yet to manifest in occupancy rates, there is evidence of demand building up in select markets. Additionally, the momentum of rental growth persists, fuelled by a preference for quality spaces. However, incentives are anticipated to remain elevated due to the influx of new supply in certain areas.
Amidst the refurbish or relocate dilemma, refurbishing existing spaces can yield remarkable outcomes. Proactive engagement and strategic decision-making are essential in navigating lease expiries successfully. Amicus offers access to a team of experienced workplace specialists poised to optimise office spaces for maximum impact. Our expertise extends to providing tailored consultations and tangible examples of past successes through relevant case studies.
