IRE's Scottish Quarterly Index showed that it was the office market that suffered during the quarter, with rental growth rates tumbling 0.23% to -0.2%. But this is still considerably more healthy than the UK average, where rental growth now is now running at -8.7%.

Many of Scotland's prime retail pitches are currently oversupplied with available units, which means that rental growth has stalled at 0%, below the UK average of 2.3%. And rental growth in the industrial sector is also declining, down from 2.2% to 0.5% over the past six months.
