The usual way to measure value in this market is to compare the spread of the yield on commercial property over the yield on 10-year gilts.
When the commercial property yield almost reached parity with the yield on 10-year gilts in 2007, this was a clear sign of trouble ahead.
Things look more exposed in America. The spread of commercial property yields over 10-year Treasuries (American gilts) is only 0.5pc.
To return the spread to normal, average commercial property prices need to fall from peak to trough by about 22pc. So far, average prices have only dropped by about 7pc, leaving a large fall still to come.
