Asia Pacific real estate investments reached USD 105 billion in H1 2026, marking the region’s strongest first-half performance since 2022, according to Colliers’ Asia Pacific Capital Markets Snapshot H1 2026. Office assets remained the largest investment segment across APAC, attracting USD 40.2 billion during the period. Retail assets secured USD 26.7 billion, followed by industrial properties at USD 22.8 billion. Data centres attracted USD 6.7 billion as institutional investors continued to explore emerging asset classes. In India, office assets accounted for more than 40% of total real estate investment inflows in H1 2026, primarily supported by domestic capital. Since 2022, the country’s office segment has attracted nearly USD 14 billion, contributing around 40-50% of annual real estate capital deployment. Badal Yagnik, CEO and Managing Director, Colliers India, said the office sector continues to attract investors due to broad-based occupier demand and growing Global Capability Centre activity. He added that increasing adoption of office REITs and capital recycling by developers are expected to support investments in the segment. Investors in India are also expanding into mixed-use developments and alternative assets to diversify their portfolios. Foreign capital continues to show interest beyond conventional office, residential, retail, industrial and warehousing assets. Domestic investors emerged as the main drivers of Indian real estate investments during H1 2026. Domestic capital deployment increased 80% year-on-year and accounted for around 57% of total inflows, while foreign investments rose 24% and contributed about 43%. Across APAC, China and Japan attracted more than USD 25 billion each during H1 2026, while Australia recorded USD 15.8 billion. Singapore attracted USD 14.1 billion, surpassing its total investment volume recorded during the full year of 2025. Colliers said capital deployment remains concentrated in the region’s most liquid markets, while investors continue to favour traditional sectors such as office, retail and industrial assets alongside structural growth opportunities such as data centres.
