Office rental - Market Review - Abu Dhabi, Q2 2014

Abu Dhabi is quickly becoming a popular destination for multinational giants in addition to having a strong start-up culture, which has impacted the city's office market. In Q1 of this year, the “39% [office space] vacancy rate remained stable”, and “There are early indications of office demand improving.” (Abu Dhabi Real Estate Market Overview Q1 2014, JLL). More and more companies looking to rent an office in Abu Dhabi will certainly be attracted to the fresh, new premium offerings in the Emirati capital.

The most prestigious areas in Abu Dhabi for office rental are Sowwah Square, Al Muroor, and the Corniche, and those are where all businesses want to be. However, with Abu Dhabi office rental prices forecasted to rise (Abu Dhabi Offices Market Update H1 2014, Knight Frank), the costs can be too high for many companies. To take the popular Al Mamoura building as an example, the minimum requirement for regular office rental space starts from AED3600/m2 per annum for a minimum of 900 – 1000m2.

To overcome this, when wanting to maintain a professional corporate image with an iconic business address without breaking the bank, businesses seeking to rent an office in Abu Dhabi are interested in the serviced office concept. A serviced office offers unmatched flexibility that traditional offices cannot compete so that you are always able to quickly adapt when the situation requires it.
