Asia Pacific real estate investment showed signs of recovery in the third quarter of 2020 with US$35 billion in direct transactions committed between July and September 2020.
Key Highlights:

Logistics and data centre investments accelerating regionally
"Investors returned in greater numbers in the third quarter, reaffirming their appetite for North Asia assets and real estate linked to logistics and data centres.
