  • Abstract:
    This paper considers urban and regional property market processes, their development outcomes and the implications for economic development in the UK. Major differences between the inter-regional pattern of economic activity and the inter-regional distribution of office property development are identified. Next, the spatial variation in property market strength and potential development profitability are analysed and described. Differences in the temporal relationship between rents and yields are revealed. In peripheral regions, yield trends lead rent trends by longer periods than in core regions. As a result, capital values and the extent and duration of profitable development conditions are reduced. The regional and urban pattern of development is found to reflect both general property prices signals and the particular way in which these signals are influenced, through yields, by investors' decisions. The paper concludes with a call for a better understanding of the way in which investors' perceptions of urban and regional property markets are formed and how they influence their decisions.
