CBRE Dealmaker – Alastair Campbell, Campbell & Co “The South Yorkshire market has had a good start to 2017 with take-up figures well up on 2016. Demand has been for both in and out of town office space, although with the uncertainty of Brexit, demand at the smaller end of the spectrum (2,000–5,000 sq ft) has slowed noticeably. Supply across the region in general has declined with various large buildings gone to residential under PDR, so rentals have hardened, although the region as a whole still remains very competitive compared to other major regional cities.” To submit your deals please e-mail deals@egi.co.uk or tweet @egideals
