The same dataset can look dramatically different depending on how it is visualised. Most charts are produced with good intent, but not all of them tell the full story, and some are designed not to. Knowing how to spot the difference could change how you read every market report you pick up. In this episode of Commercially Minded, Will Matthews, Knight Frank's Head of Commercial Insight, is joined by Seb Jones, Senior Analyst in Knight Frank's Modelling and Intelligence team, to examine how data visualisation shapes the conclusions that property professionals reach. They explore everything from innocent design failures that accidentally misdirect, to techniques that can steer readers towards conclusions the data does not support. If you want to know how to spot the signs that a chart is misleading you, and what questions to ask before you form a view, this is the episode to listen to.For more insights like this, subscribe to Will's newsletter for his weekly take on commercial real estate markets.Produced by Rethink Audio.

The innovation sector is widely seen as one of the UK's biggest economic opportunities, and the signals are hard to ignore: OpenAI is establishing a permanent presence in London, US AI companies are expanding their European footprint in the capital, and innovation clusters are emerging across UK cities well beyond the Golden Triangle. But is the real estate industry reading those signals correctly? In this episode, Will Matthews is joined by Jennifer Townsend, a partner in Knight Frank's Occupier Insight team, to explore what the real estate industry often gets wrong about measuring innovation demand, and what better metrics look like in practice. From funding as a leading indicator of space requirements, to AI clusters building momentum in cities like Edinburgh, Leeds and Manchester, the discussion examines how to understand where demand is heading, not just where it has been.

Český komerční realitní trh byl loni výjimečně živý. Podle Zdenky Klapalové, prezidentky Asociace pro rozvoj trhu nemovitostí a partnerky české pobočky poradenské společnosti Knight Frank, sice objemy transakcí rostly i jinde v Evropě, zdaleka ovšem ne takovým tempem. Klapalová to uvedla v pořadu Seznam Zpráv Agenda. Objemy transakcí podle ní v Česku byly rekordní – dosáhly 4,4 miliardy eur (přes 105 miliard Kč). Za většinou transakcí, zhruba 85 procenty, stál domácí kapitál. „Na trhu se objevila řada velmi zajímavých, atraktivních nemovitostí, které předtím na trhu nebyly a které svým objemem předčily transakce a příležitosti, které byly na trhu k dispozici v uplynulých letech. S ohledem na silnou poptávku reagovala i nabídka a řada zahraničních investorů, majitelů nemovitostí v České republice, velmi úspěšně nemovitosti uvedla na trh,“ vysvětluje Klapalová v rozhovoru.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into Los Angeles' luxury housing market—one of the world's largest super‑prime residential hubs, currently ranking third globally for $10‑million‑plus sales. Despite a range of challenges in recent years, the market continues to show remarkable resilience and remains a key destination for global private wealth.Liam is joined by Nick Segal to unpack the dynamics of a market that has recorded 250 sales above $10 million in the past 12 months, totalling $4.6 billion. Nick explains how the city is navigating significant headwinds—from the ULA tax reform, which imposes an excise tax of up to 5.5% on high‑value transactions, to complex insurance challenges and the emotional toll following last year's devastating fires. While these factors have prompted some wealth migration to states such as Texas and Florida, the conversation explores why a degree of “stickiness” remains, and why some buyers are already returning to California.The discussion explores the structural shifts in buyer behaviour, noting a move away from “aspirational” pricing towards a necessary realism among sellers. Nick highlights how tech wealth and other alternative sectors are backfilling changes in the traditional entertainment industry. In addition, a new trend in wellness‑driven development is reshaping the luxury landscape, with an increasing emphasis on lifestyle quality.Looking ahead to 2026, Liam and Nick discuss the potential for a “righting of the ship,” driven by anticipated interest rate reductions and growing political momentum to recalibrate tax initiatives. They identify key sub‑markets to watch, including the Palisades—which is poised for a major recalibration—and Beverly Hills, which remains a stronghold for developers due to its exemption from the ULA tax.For more insight into global wealth, luxury markets and the assets that sit alongside property subscribe to Liam's twice-weekly research briefing here: https://preferences.knightfrank.com/subscribe-to-research?utm_campaign=2703391_Data%20Protection%20-%20Not%20asked%20consent%20%28Headshot%29&utm_medium=Email%20Marketing&utm_source=Dotmailer&dm_t=0,0,0,0,0Host: Liam Bailey, Global Head of Research at Knight Frank & Editor of The Wealth Report, liam.bailey@knightfrank.comGuest: Nick Segal, Managing Broker at the leading Los Angeles brokerage, Carolwood, which has recently launched a new strategic alliance with Knight Frank.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Emilie Lauer is joined by Knight Frank's chief economist Ben Burston to explore what 2026 holds for Australia's commercial property market. Reflecting on 2025, Burston notes a year of recovery across sectors, with retail bouncing back, industrial continuing strong growth, and offices stabilising. Over the last 12 months, investor behaviour shifted, with private buyers diversifying into commercial sectors like childcare, quick-service restaurants, and data centres. Looking ahead, Burston expects steady growth, tempered by interest rate fluctuations, with opportunities for investors to acquire quality assets at attractive yields. State-specific insights highlight Melbourne's long-term potential, while Sydney and Brisbane are set for quicker gains, and construction costs and "high economic rent" dynamics are likely to drive rent growth and stabilise values. Burston sector-specific analysis points to prime offices and industrial infill locations as particularly promising, while dominant shopping centres benefit from tightening supply and population growth. Overall, the duo underscores that strategic, diversified investing and careful due diligence will be key for successful investment in the evolving 2026 commercial property market.

What market is poised to outpace even the mighty New York? This week the global Head of Research at Knight Frank, Liam Bailey, is joined by President & CEO of Miller Samuel, Jonathan Miller. Jonathan is a legendary New York housing market expert whose insights shape understanding of luxury real estate trends nationwide.Using fresh data from the Knight Frank Global Super-Prime Intelligence Report, Liam and Jonathan explore how billionaires and centi-millionaires are reshaping global housing markets, and what the latest quarter's slowdown really means.Across 12 leading global hubs, 474 residential sales above $10 million took place in Q3 2025, totalling $8.5 billion. But with volumes down 21% and values down 29% on Q2, the big question is: what's driving the shift?Jonathan describes a market in rude health: despite a slowdown in Q3 sales, Wall Street continues to fuel the luxury sector, and Q4 is shaping up to be a bumper season in the city.Meanwhile, in Miami and Palm Beach, demand remains strong but low inventory is holding back transactions. Liam draws parallels with London, where, spoiler alert, wealth taxes are not helping super-prime volumes, and with Dubai, where, as in Miami, limited stock is constraining sales.Looking ahead to 2026, New York appears set for a strong run. But one market in particular is poised to outpace even the Big Apple… tune in to find out which.For more global wealth and property insight: Subscribe to Liam's twice-weekly Global Property Briefing here: https://preferences.knightfrank.com/subscribe-to-global-property-briefing Hosted on Acast.

The Elephant In The Room Property Podcast | Inside Australian Real Estate
There's a side of the property market most Australians never see — where listings don't make headlines, and deals happen behind closed doors.In this episode, we step into that world of discretion and discovery with William Laing, Co-Founder and CEO of Quiet List, to explore how off-market sales are quietly reshaping the real estate landscape.With nearly one in five Sydney homes now trading off-market, William reveals how private listings are redefining demand and changing how agents, buyers, and sellers connect. From price-testing vendors and privacy-driven sellers to the rise of buyer's agents and agent-only platforms, this hidden layer of the market is rewriting the rules of access and advantage.Together, we unpack what truly counts as an off-market listing, why so many sellers are choosing to go quiet, and what this shift means for transparency in Australian property. It's a conversation that cuts through the hype to reveal the data, dynamics, and ethics shaping the industry's most exclusive corner.If you've ever wondered what happens before a listing goes live, or why some of the best opportunities never make it online, this episode gives you a rare glimpse into the quiet art of deal-making in today's property market.Episode Highlights00:00 – Introduction01:16 – Guest Introduction: William Lang of Quiet List01:48 – Understanding Off-Market Listings03:40 – Challenges in Off-Market Transactions08:27 – Quiet List: The Business Model08:40 – Appreciating the Role of Buyer's Agents18:03 – Privacy and Transparency Issues of Off-Market Deals26:18 – Real Estate Platforms28:05 – Challenges and Changes in Agent Processes28:45 – Advantages of Centralized Briefs31:03 – Off-Market Deals and Relationships32:23 – Platform Features and Future Directions41:53 – Real Estate Market Dynamics and AI42:33 – Property DumboAbout the GuestWilliam Laing is the Co-Founder and CEO of Quiet List, Australia's first agent-only property platform transforming how real estate professionals connect qualified demand with quiet supply.With more than a decade in luxury residential real estate — including roles with Kay & Burton, Knight Frank, Savills, and The Agency — William built his career around discretion, trust, and deal-making.

There are finer things in life正文:A BOTTLE OF Château d'Yquem 2010 is a fine thing. Apricot, toasted almond, citrus zest, juicy lemon, white truffles: it is all there. Until recently, the cost of the world's finest sweet wine rose steadily. By 2023 a given bottle from the producer went for 60% more than in the mid-2010s. At the time, all forms of opulence grew pricier—classic cars, aged whiskies and enormous mansions shot up in value, and Knight Frank's “luxury-investment index” rose 70% from 2015 to 2023.知识点:citrus /ˈsɪtrəs/ (n.)n. a type of fruit that includes oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruits, which have a juicy flesh and a sharp taste;柑橘类水果(包括橙子、柠檬、青柠、西柚等,果肉多汁,味道酸甜)• She likes to drink citrus juice every morning for breakfast.(她喜欢每天早餐时喝柑橘汁。)• Citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C and other nutrients.(柑橘类水果富含维生素C和其他营养素。)获取外刊的完整原文以及精讲笔记,请关注微信公众号「早安英文」,回复“外刊”即可。更多有意思的英语干货等着你! 【节目介绍】 《早安英文-每日外刊精读》,带你精读最新外刊,了解国际最热事件:分析语法结构,拆解长难句,最接地气的翻译,还有重点词汇讲解。 所有选题均来自于《经济学人》《纽约时报》《华尔街日报》《华盛顿邮报》《大西洋月刊》《科学杂志》《国家地理》等国际一线外刊。 【适合谁听】 1、关注时事热点新闻,想要学习最新最潮流英文表达的英文学习者 2、任何想通过地道英文提高听、说、读、写能力的英文学习者 3、想快速掌握表达,有出国学习和旅游计划的英语爱好者 4、参加各类英语考试的应试者(如大学英语四六级、托福雅思、考研等) 【你将获得】 1、超过1000篇外刊精读课程,拓展丰富语言表达和文化背景 2、逐词、逐句精确讲解,系统掌握英语词汇、听力、阅读和语法 3、每期内附学习笔记,包含全文注释、长难句解析、疑难语法点等,帮助扫除阅读障碍。
"We're facing enormous challenges - climate crisis, biodiversity loss, social and economic inequity. These are complex, interlinked issues that we cannot solve by simply focusing on embedded and operational carbon." In the urgent battle against climate change, the built environment stands at a critical crossroads. Oliver Heath, well known global biophilic design expert, explains how Biophilic Design offers a transformative approach that goes far beyond superficial sustainability efforts. Biophilic design represents a holistic solution, reimagining our built spaces as living, breathing ecosystems that support not just human health, but the wellbeing of all life. It's a radical departure from traditional sustainability approaches that narrowly target carbon reduction. Oliver argues that true sustainability requires a systemic approach. "We need to take a wider view, not just a carbon tunnel vision," he emphasises. This means considering interconnected challenges like resource scarcity, water crises, air pollution, and biodiversity loss. The key lies in understanding our fundamental connection to nature. Biophilic design recognises that humans have an evolutionary inheritance - a genetic predisposition to connect with natural environments. By integrating natural elements, patterns, and sensory experiences into our buildings, we can create spaces that simultaneously support human health and environmental sustainability. Addressing the greenwashing epidemic, Oliver suggests a multi-faceted approach. "It's not just about putting plants in a corner," he warns. Instead, organisations must consider the entire lifecycle of materials, from sourcing to disposal, and how each design decision impacts broader ecological systems. Practical implementation involves several critical strategies: 1. Pre- and Post-Occupancy EvaluationsCompanies can measure the real impact of design interventions. In one project with Knight Frank, targeted biophilic design interventions resulted in remarkable outcomes: an 18% increase in productivity, 22% improvement in meetings, and a 28% boost in overall wellbeing. 2. Diverse and Inclusive DesignRecognising that people experience environments differently, biophilic design creates spaces that support various sensory needs. "Over 15% of the population is neurodivergent," Heath notes. "We must design environments that support everyone's comfort and potential." 3. Comprehensive StandardsWhile current building regulations fall short, non-mandatory standards like the WELL Building Standard and Living Building Challenge provide frameworks for genuine sustainable practices. These standards look beyond carbon, examining air quality, materials, water usage, and community impact. The economic argument is compelling. Buildings designed with biophilic principles are more likely to retain value, attract talent, and reflect progressive organizational values. As Heath puts it, "Companies are recognising that nature connection isn't just aesthetic - it's a fundamental strategy for creating more successful, innovative environments." Case studies demonstrate the potential. A project with John Lewis transformed residential spaces by creating a "green thread of wellbeing" - integrating natural elements from external gardens through interior spaces, enhancing community connection and individual wellbeing. Education is crucial. Interior Design Declares, a movement Oliver helped establish, encourages professionals to commit to regenerative design principles. Their 12 pledges focus on raising awareness, sharing knowledge, and challenging traditional design approaches. "The biophilic future is already here," Heath argues, adapting a quote from author William Gibson. "It's just not very evenly distributed." For businesses, designers, and policymakers, sustainable design must be holistic, considering the intricate web of human and ecological interactions. Biophilic design offers a comprehensive framework that goes beyond carbon reduction, creating spaces that genuinely support life in all its complexity. As we face unprecedented environmental challenges, biophilic design isn't just an option - it's a necessity. It represents a profound reimagining of our relationship with the built environment, where every design decision becomes an opportunity to support, regenerate, and celebrate life.
