Property companies facing a less buoyant office market
In 2021, take-up (areas rented or purchased by users) in Ile-de-France remained 22% below its pre-health crisis level (2.38 million in 2019), despite the rebound (+ 32% , to 1.85 million) committed in the second half. It fell back to its 2013 level, far from the 2017 record (2.63 million). On the other hand, in the last quarter of 2021, the immediate supply (stock of empty offices) was at its highest for seven years, at 4 million square meters. The impact of teleworking is difficult to assess and it will be spread over several years, as leases expire (firm terms of three, six or nine years) and companies decide to move. This asset class nevertheless has the advantage of offering rents protected from inflation by indexation. In France, the ILAT index (Index of Rents for Tertiary Activities) takes into account inflation (50%), construction costs (25%) and GDP.
