Investment in industrial property increased across Europe by three per cent in the first half of 2011 according to the latest Jones Lang LaSalle European Industrial Bulletin.
Chris Staveley, director, Jones Lang LaSalle EMEA capital markets said: “Despite a good start to 2011, economic volatility has clearly impacted the total level of investor activity in Europe’s industrial real estate sector.
“While the market in certain countries like Germany and parts of Eastern Europe looks resilient, if widespread economic uncertainty and limited product availability continues, investor demand will remain constrained over the rest of the year.”
