Bangkok Luxury Condo Reaches THB 200,000/sq.m in Sukhumvit area

According to CBRE Bangkok Residential MarketView, In this quarter, we have seen large public listed developers such as Supalai and Sansiri coming back to launch high-rise condominiums in the downtown market. The hottest condominium project was the XXXIX by Sansiri.
This project, located in Soi Sukhumvit 39, was the most expensive project that has ever been launched in the Sukhumvit area with the average asking price at THB 200,000 per square metre.

This project was, according to Sansiri sold out within days of the launch. The sizes of the one to three bedroom units were smaller than other super luxury projects at this price level.
Sukhumvit soi 39 and Charoenrat/Sathupradit in the Rama III area are expected to be new hotspots for downtown condominium market. Sukhumvit soi 39 has a close proximity to mass transit and near the new Emporium, Emquatier.
Resale prices for the best completed projects continue to rise. The best quality projects with good accessibility enjoyed greater price appreciation. The steady increase in land prices especially along main roads and rising construction costs means that any new development in the downtown area will have to set prices above existing levels.

Is There a Silver lining amid COVID-19?
Thinking of the future impact of this pandemic on office buildings, it may have already dawned on many of us that a majority of potential long-term trends and health measures will become permanent work-life features in the times to come.

A direct result of COVID-19 containment measures is that organisations are taking a real-time look at the effects of prolonged off-site work and its relation to productivity.

The time is ripe to embrace Industry 4.0
Traditional brick-and-mortar retail has suffered tremendously, as countries have been implementing effective stay-at-home and social distancing policies to mitigate virus spread, while those worst hit have enacted strict draconian lockdowns

We have entered a time where, seemingly, interconnectedness is the new enemy, staying in is the new going out, and antisocial is the new social. COVID-19 has brought us on the cusp of growing accustomed to new norms and sounded a wake-up call in terms of how we live.

Covid-19 puts flexible space markets under strain
In the wake of operator defaults, landlords will be forced to re-evaluate the role of flexible space in their portfolios.

The global Covid-19 outbreak has had serious negative effects on commercial real estate, including flexible space. Of late, many operators have experienced the flexible nature of the business working against them, as many occupiers have opted to surrender desks and implement work-from-home plans.
