Commercial real estate brokerage management consists of properties such as industrial, land, flex, retail space, shopping complexes, and others. Brokerage management offers valuation services, advisory services, lease management, and rental management. To execute a deal, a broker connects a seller and a buyer. The demand for technologies like Big Data analytics, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and the Internet of Things (IoT) in commercial real estate management is driving growth in the brokerage and management of commercial real estate. Urbanization in emerging countries is a significant driver of commercial real estate management and brokerage business.
Rise in Government Initiatives for Real Estate Investments Drives the Global Market
Increasing government attempts to construct commercial infrastructure are driving the demand for brokerage management services in the real estate industry. More significant commercial project development is supported by government initiatives like Make in India, the Affordable Housing Funds (AHF), and others. Government funding for the construction of real estate infrastructure is causing the market to grow. For instance, the need for brokerage management systems for selling, renting, and acquiring real estate increased due to the Russian government investing over USD 96 billion over six years to construct hotels, office buildings, and shopping malls. Therefore, this factor stimulates the commercial real estate brokerage and management market.
Expansion of Old and Setting New Planned Cities Creates Tremendous Opportunities
Governments have been obliged to either plan for a brand-new metropolis or to expand the limits of existing ones to balance economic growth across the country due to the overcrowding of big cities. Examples include Dream City in Gujarat, Vikram City in Madhya Pradesh, New Town in Kolkata, and New Kanpur City, which are new cities that will have commercial, residential, and industrial districts. In a similar vein, the government of South Korea decided to create two brand-new cities to balance the growth of the Gangnam and Gangbuk regions. Such expansion and establishment plans for new cities drive migration, which raises the demand for brokerage management solutions for buying, renting, and leasing property.
North America is the most significant revenue contributor and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. The commercial real estate brokerage and management markets are studied in the US, Canada, and Mexico. The United States dominated the market in 2020, but Mexico is expected to proliferate. Due to the high per capita incomes in the U.S. and Canada, more people are opting to buy commercial real estate than rent it. Additionally, because rents are higher in developed and developing locations, many people choose to invest in real estate because they can expect to see more enormous profits in the future. These factors support the brokerage and management of commercial real estate in North America.
Europe is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period. Countries like Germany, France, and the U.K. have been recognized as important markets for commercial real estate brokerage and management due to the rise of their economies. Christie's International Real Estate, Engel and Volkers AG, Savills, and Vinci are the market's leading competitors. Additionally, the demand for real estate is rising due to European countries' increasing populations, historically cheap borrowing rates, excellent employment stability, and foreign tourism.
