The study of office trends in Manchester suggest that despite having been hit hard by recession, the overall picture of Manchester’s property market is quite encouraging.

The study conducted by property consultancy Drivers Jonas reported that despite the low take up of office spaces in year 2009, the rents have not gone down substantially. The market witnessed a decline of 50p in prime rental rate, though the rent-free tenancies of more than two years on a lease of ten years have increased markedly.

According to the statistics last year take-up of office space in Manchester was hardly 809,000 sq ft amounting to £147 and taken up in city centres and not in business park areas. Further most of the leases were for spaces below 5,000 sq ft. The overall revenues from rentals dropped down to half of last years and 20% of the year before that.

The report also pointed out that Manchester is one of the only two cities covered by the report that will have new desk space to rent to the extent of 250,000 sq ft in 2010, which despite being the lowest availability in last five years will cater to the increasing demands from outside.

The demand has mostly come from media firms that are looking for new space for their sets as well as office spaces. One such firm that has shown interest in the property is TV channel ITV that wants a six-acre set for Coronation Street with additional 45,000 sq ft office space.

Since the rentals will show a little drop on account of leases with rent-free periods of more than two years in ten years term, the report forecasts a lower prime yield of 6% in 2010.

The BBC Trust is a watchdog of the BBC and has the responsibility of giving maximum returns to all those who pay licence fees to BBC. Of late it has embarked upon a project to assert its independence and has spent a lot of money collected through licence fee.

The trust has leased the first floor of a house of the Edwardian era for a period of eight years to seat its sixty employees. This is to become the headquarters of the Trust and is at a prime location in the centre of London. The lease price is £2.2m and another £400,000 has been spent on refurbishing the building with fittings. £250,000 has been used on interior design of the office space.

This new property was taken because prior to this, the Trust had shared office space along with two other departments of BBC in a building owned by the corporation. When this building was sold off, the BBC offered space to the trust in another building of the corporation, but the Trust rejected it and went in for this new property saying that this will safeguard its independence.

This action of the BBC Trust has come under the scanner because it is seen as unnecessary. The Culture secretary has given the government’s view by saying that they will support the corporation. The opposition Tories have threatened the dissolution of the Trust if they come to power after the next general elections.

At a time when the Trust is facing the threat to its existence, the action seems unwise. The report of the National Audit Office would further provide detailed information about a project estimated at a cost of twenty million and two years. This would further damage the reputation of the Trust prompting the shadow minister to question the logic of spending so much money by a Trust, the sole objective of whose existence is to look after proper utilisation of public money.

However, the news is that the proposed expansion is to be funded by Qatar Holding and China Investment Corporation (CIC) in parts. The former company, a primary organ of Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), handles the strategic and direct investment matters for the organization. It has confirmed its plans of becoming a substantial shareholder in Songbird Estates by funding a part of its next venture.

The present assets of Songbird in CWG value around £113million and the proposed purchase of £54mn of shares in CWG will increase their shareholding by 7.9%. Ahmad al-Sayed, the CEO of Qatar Holding, clarified his position on the matter by declaring a proposed fund raising programme for the cause in pursuance to their intentions. In fact, Qatar Holding will invest around £150mn in the venture and the rest of the investment will be made by CIC.

Qatar Holding has recently emerged as a primary player in the rent desk space business and has already marked its presence in a number of corporations including Barclays, J Sainsbury, London Stock, Qatar Telecom, Qatar Exchange, etc. This new venture with Songbird Estates is a step ahead in expanding their business and will bring benefits to both the parties.

G4 Communications may move to a remodelled Derry Wayside Furniture Store from its present location in Manchester.

Although the property situated at 3 Rockingham Road still has an ‘available’ status in the market, the president of G4 Communications, Gent Cav, recently held meetings with the planning board in Londonderry to finalise the transformation of the furniture seller store into the new home of G4.

G4’s present headquarter is only of 6,000 square feet, which looks meagre compared to the 16,000 square feet of open plan desk space of the new building.

The solicitor of G4, John Michels, informed that Gent Cav’s primary concern regarding the property was that of the available parking space. The building has the possibility of approximately 32 parking lots including seven in the back, while the rules of the town would require G4 to have a minimum of 45 parking lots on the business property.

John Michels went on to add that G4, by virtue of being a public utility business, would bring more businesses to the town resulting in its growth, which would as a result require more parking lots. He expressed the hope that G4’s growth would be in tune with that of the town’s.

G4’s primary business is as an internet and phone services provider to people in New Hampshire, with companies like FairPoint and Comcast as its competitors. Cav believes that his company would need all the area around the parking lot to accommodate employees who don’t work in the headquarters. There is also a possibility that he might shift the retail business to some other part of the store.

Carl Griffen, Managing Director of Folkes Holdings said that due to stalled projects the property rates are to likely go up when the estate markets open up. However, he also went on to admit that his company Folkes Holdings would not be performing as expected in the first half of the year 2009 owing to the slack condition of the market.

Griffen pointed to the anomaly in the market by saying that the current available office area in Birmingham of 367,500 sq ft is much lower than what it should be in a well performing market condition. Griffin also advised people interested in ‘Excellent’ BREEAM offices to be proactive because they will be lapped up quickly in an improved market as there were only four such fully standardized buildings in Birmingham.

However, the wisdom offered by Mr. Griffen seemed misplaced when compared with the statement of Divers Jonas, a commercial property agent. He said that in the current scenario the renters based their decisions mostly on cost and no environmental standards.
