At the same time, supply of retail property diminished by 2%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The figures build on the results of the Q2 tracker, thereby creating a sense of momentum. Last quarter, demand to invest in retail property was up by 35% compared with the same three-month period in 2024, while supply was down 4%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">High-street retail investment demand, which makes up a large proportion of the retail sector, was up by 45% compared to the same quarter last year. That is down slightly on the Q2 year on year figure &#8211; 56% &#8211; but is nevertheless robust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_869119377-online-version-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Group of people walking in a high street.\" class=\"wp-image-1903\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_869119377-online-version-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_869119377-online-version-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_869119377-online-version-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_869119377-online-version-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_869119377-online-version-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The positive outlook for the retail sector is the result of multiple factors, most importantly continuing &#8211; albeit cautious &#8211; cuts to the Bank of England\u2019s Base Rate. The Base Rate was last cut to 4% on 7 August, its fifth reduction since August 2024.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Bank of England\u2019s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) held the rate at 4% in its most recent meeting on 17 September, though some members voted for a further cut. \u201cThe Bank is continuing to monitor economic conditions and intends to take a gradual and careful approach to any future interest rate reductions,\u201d it said at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere can be little doubt that reductions to the base rate are enabling investment in the retail sector,\u201d said Andy Miles, Rightmove\u2019s Managing Director of Commercial Real Estate. \u201cBut that is only part of the story. Vendors are also increasingly realistic about the value of their retail properties and the occupational market is improving somewhat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added: \u201cIt should also be said that this is not all retail property everywhere. Many high streets and shopping centres in secondary locations will be moving more slowly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Steve Rodell, Managing Director \u2013 Retail &amp; Leisure, at Christie &amp; Co\u200b, agreed. \u201cDespite broader economic uncertainty and reports of declining consumer spending, trade remains steady across needs-driven retail sectors such as convenience stores and petrol stations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThese essential services continue to attract strong investor interest. While discretionary spending and luxury retail may feel the pinch if consumers tighten their belts, the overall retail property market remains resilient and we\u2019re seeing high demand for quality assets in desirable locations.\u201d\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_293803164-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"People walking outside a retail store\" class=\"wp-image-1905\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_293803164-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_293803164-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_293803164-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_293803164-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_293803164.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rightmove\u2019s statistics are in line with expectations from some of the industry\u2019s leading research firms at the start of the year. Savills\u2019 <em>European Outlook 2025<\/em>, for instance, explained why money is starting to flow back into retail.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRetail investment is expected to benefit from a boost in retail sales growth, driven by easing inflation and stronger consumer purchasing power,\u201d it said. \u201cGrocery shops, prime high street assets and retail warehouses will remain particularly attractive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also seems that a lot of retailers are rethinking their strategies, concluding that they require more, not less real estate and thereby boosting the investment market.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNot only is the consumer migrating back to retail real estate, but the tenants themselves actually recognise that they need retail real estate in a way that they maybe didn&#8217;t need it a few years ago,\u201d Rich Hill, global head of real estate at Principal Asset Management, told <em>CRE Media Europe <\/em>last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSpecifically, tenants are recognising that they need retail real estate to satisfy micro fulfilment. So, if you want to get your goods to the consumer in hours, they&#8217;re actually using their physical retail stores to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added: \u201cIt&#8217;s become a full fledged circular ecosystem. You need e-commerce to satisfy the retail store and you need the retail store to satisfy e commerce. It&#8217;s actually become very symbiotic. There have been studies about this that show that when you close a physical retail store in a given market, usually your e-commerce sales go down.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also seems likely that base rate cuts are supporting a broader recovery in commercial property investment in the UK. According to Rightmove\u2019s data, overall demand for investment in commercial property was up 11% year on year in Q3. The equivalent statistic for the second quarter was 20%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_957863611-web-version-1024x447.jpg\" alt=\"A large warehouse\" class=\"wp-image-1909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_957863611-web-version-1024x447.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_957863611-web-version-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_957863611-web-version-768x336.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_957863611-web-version-1536x671.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rightmove.co.uk\/commercial-property\/news\/content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AdobeStock_957863611-web-version.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breaking those statistics down, it&#8217;s clear that the industrial and logistics sector still leads the pack, recording a 53% increase in demand from investors in the third quarter. But the office market is also continuing to recover, with investment demand up 31% over the same period.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSeveral recent studies, although not looking at the UK in isolation, have shown that workers are spending more days in the office each week,\u201d said Miles. \u201cThe pace of change is not dramatic, but it is still significant. That gives investors confidence that reports of the office\u2019s demise were premature.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a
