Commercial Property Management in Australia - Industry Market Research Report

Back in business: A return to offices and retail stores has boosted demand from downstream markets

Operators in the Commercial Property Management industry are responsible for managing their clients' commercial real estate holdings. Their duties include tenant management and rent collection. Industry operators have faced difficult trading conditions over the past five years. Declines in demand from key downstream markets have constrained industry performance over the period. Working from home mandates and sporadic lockdown measures introduced across the country to curb the spread of COVID-19 have reduced demand from office and retail property operators. However, increases in the number of businesses over the past five years have benefited operators via an expanded customer base. Overall, industry revenue is expected to decline at an annualised 3.3% over the five years through 2023-24, to $1.6 billion.
