Background for the Survey
Next Article
EDC Erhverv’s Expectations Survey 2021 maps the expectations of more than 1,200 investors and businesses for the commercial property market in 2021. We have conducted the survey since 2016, and we therefore compare the conclusions with the results of recent years when relevant.
The responses have been gathered through EDC Erhverv’s database with more than 17,500 selected Danish businesses and investors, and through campaigns on social media targeted at businessmen at CEO level and persons who are interested in or have a professional profile in property investment. Geographically, 52% of respondents are based west of the Great Belt and 48% east of the Great Belt. The respondents’ occupation ranges right from professional investment companies, law firms and bank branches to logistics businesses, retail shops etc. An investor is defined based on the business in question making investments in properties that are not for its own use and that are made for the purpose of generating a return. In the section on expected needs for premises in the coming year, respondents comprise businesses that own their buildings and tenants in business premises.
The survey solely reflects the respondents’ market expectations and not necessarily EDC Erhverv’s position. EDC Erhverv’s views on the survey and the market are presented continuously.
