20 | Insights H1 2025 Vincent Stevens of Commercial Liverpool says the local market remains active across all sectors, with demand especially strong for well-located properties. The investor market has slowed slightly, reflecting higher financing costs, and this has seen owner occupiers come to the fore as the key drivers of demand for commercial property across Liverpool. That said, data from Arealytics shows 114 new commercial leases were signed in the second half of 2024. More broadly, the Liverpool area is rapidly becoming a health and education hub. Vincent explains, “Liverpool CBD has recently been the beneficiary of a number of large office lease transactions, with universities being the key lessees as they look to expand their footprint into Western Sydney.” Wollongong University, Notre Dame University and Western Sydney University are among the tertiary institutions that now have campuses in Liverpool, and this will underpin the long term health of the local economy, and cement the appeal of the area’s commercial property market.
