Commercial PropertySuccess in the business propertymarket despite challenging timesThe market for commercial and industrial property in 2009 has been very challenging for those who work in it, but despite this there havebeen some achievements.Advertiser’s announcementCHRIS Rowlands, managingdirector of Chris Rowlands & Co.Property Consultants, says forhim there have been a number ofnotable success stories in theyear. These include the letting of15,000-sq ft of offices to BarnsleyNHS PCT at Longfields Court onthe Wharncliffe Business Parkat Carlton and theestablishment of the servicedoffices and managed workspaceby DBH Business Centres on thesame site.

“Remploy have taken 3,500-sqft on the fourth floor of JosephLocke House and the final 5,000-sq ft Hybrid unit at Capitol Parknext to Junction 37 off the M1has been let to SheffieldChildren’s Hospital, who will useit as their Patient RetrievalCentre,” said Chris.

“Providence Villa on SackvilleStreet is now home to TheBranches Physiotherapy Clinicand Barnsley Medical Con -sulting Rooms which havemoved across the road fromChurchfield Court.”

On the industrial front Chrisreports that ShortwoodBusiness Park, a development byPriority Sites near Junction 36off the M1 at Birdwell, hascontinued to be very popularwith the majority of units nowoccupied.

“Only two remain unspokenfor and are available on verycompetitive terms,” said Chris.

“Wortley Court at Dodworth isnow almost fully occupied withtenants including Fast LadPerformance who trade inremote controlled helicopters,Osborne Technologies who havemoved from Fall Bank IndustrialEstate and Crown DecoratorCentres. Another unit is underoffer to a motor racing team.

“Meanwhile The Civic refurb -ishment is largely completedand proving to be popular andsuccessful. There are currentlythree floors of retail spaceamounting to over 20,000-sq ftwhich will provide excellentaccommodation for specialistretailers giving Barnsleyanother retail angle to comp -

lement the Barnsley Marketsredevelopment which has reg -rettably been delayed because offunding issues.

“The majority of deals thathave been agreed in the marketplace have been leases andlicences often at figures verymuch in the tenants’ favour. TheGovernment’s recently introd -uced requirement for rates to be

paid on vacant buildings hascaused landlords to reduce rentssignificantly in order to attractoccupiers with many bargaindeals being struck.”

According to Chris therecession and restrictions onborrowing for property purchasehas hugely dented the marketwith relatively few sales havingtaken place. Furthermore muchproposed new development hashad to be shelved becauseschemes are simply not viable inthe current market.

Looking to the future Chrisbelieves there is likely to becomea shortage of better qualitystock as the market eventuallyimproves.

“Barnsley is traditionally aresilient town. Having exp -erienced the recession of theearly 1990s and the Miners’Strike in the 1980s I am confidentthat the market for businessproperty will ultimately emergefrom the current depressedtimes, stronger, fitter and readyto respond to the challenges ofthe next decade.”
