Region. Rents lift for industrial property

Strong demand for industrial property in Sydney’s south-west could lift rents marginally, according to a Colliers’ report in The Australian Financial Review. The report said rents elsewhere in the Sydney metropolitan market had stabilised in the past six months. Falling borrowing rates, increasing yields and a growing perception that the market may have bottomed are expected to stimulate investment and owner-occupied markets in the first half of 2009, in Sydney.
