The re­al es­tate in­dus­try has been grad­u­al­ly re­cov­er­ing since the pan­dem­ic, while the com­mer­cial sec­tor con­tin­ues to adapt to chang­ing work­place trends.

This was re­vealed by the pres­i­dent of the As­so­ci­a­tion of Re­al Es­tate Agents (AREA) Sal­ly Singh dur­ing an in­ter­view with the Sun­day Busi­ness Guardian last week.

Singh said the res­i­den­tial mar­ket has seen a ro­bust resur­gence fu­eled by pent-up de­mand and evolv­ing lifestyle pref­er­ences, but the re­cov­ery rate dif­fers by re­gion and prop­er­ty type.
