🔍 Market Pulse: Melbourne’s Commercial Property Comeback

Melbourne’s commercial property market is showing signs of a robust rebound. According to NAB’s latest Commercial Property Index, demand for office space surged by 21 points in Q2 2025—the first upward shift since the pandemic [1]. Retail space is also gaining traction, signaling broader recovery across the sector.

Bernard Desmond, CEO of Blank Financial, emphasized the opportunity for brokers:

“Small business owners are a great opportunity for brokers to service them in their commercial needs… It’s a buyer’s market, and brokers can help clients acquire spaces they’ve been renting—creating new assets and revenue streams.” [1]
