Hotels in Asia Pacific Attract the Biggest Share of Investment

In the third quarter of 2012 hotels in Asia Pacific overcame all other regions and attracted the direct investment in commercial real estate of US$22.4 billion. This information is stated in the latest Global Capital Markets Research report by Jones Lang LaSalle.

The result of the third quarter is a bit less than the result of the second quarter of 2012, US$26 billion, but is bigger than Q3 of 2011 with US$23 billion. In total this year’s volume of investment is in line with 2011. During the first three quarters of 2011 real estate of Asia Pacific received the investment of US$71 billion. The investment for the same period of 2012 is US$70 billion. The total investment in the industry estimated US$100 billion in the third quarter of 2012. This is approximately 6-7% lower than comparing to Q3 2011. The investment to the Americas reached US$44 billion, and EMEA attracted US$33 billion of investment.

China, Hong Kong and Japan remain very attractive to investors, and these regions are expected to maintain their high level of investment in 2013. The expected full year investment volume for Asia Pacific is US$88 billion (in 2011 this digit was US$98). Australia featured the highest raise in the volume of the investment – in Q3 it was 17% highest than in Q3 2011.
