Latin America office market overview 3
A year and a half into the COVID-19 pandemic, the world is still trying to come to terms
with its consequences and impact on everyday life. One way or another, we all have been
affected in terms of our lifestyle, which was probably disrupted in hardly foreseeable
manners. In such a scenario, with lingering uncertainty in both the shorter and longer
term, our region is focused on the mitigation of the negative shocks. Sure enough, 2020
saw all economies decline. The number of deaths was far above historical averages,
borders remained closed and, once the sanitary situation improved in Europe and the
United States, this part of the globe became the epicenter of the pandemic. In 2021,
the picture remains similar to that of the end of 2020, although brighter: now there is
some light at the end of the tunnel. Almost all countries were able to obtain vaccines for
their population, and some even managed to carry out highly effective immunization
campaigns. There are also growing signs of economic recovery, as the reopening and
return to more normal conditions appears on stronger footing than in 2020, with shorter
and more flexible intermittent shutdowns.
As was to be expected, the crisis had a considerable effect in real estate. An unprecedented
proportion of office space had to be shut down, for months on end. TThe impact on
indicators was as direct as it was resounding: the vacancy rate rose to all-time highs,
while the demand for new leases ground to an abrupt halt. Many projects had to be put
on pause and reconsidered. Just like 2020, the first half-year of 2021 was complex and
uncertain. However, the promise of a new normal more similar to the pre-pandemic
situation now seems closer at hand, laying the foundation for a more optimistic outlook
for the region. Thus, the worst difficulties appear to be past us, and we are more confident
on how the market will behave going forward. The future of real estate, both at a regional
and global level, will see an evolved industry, more focused on wellbeing, technology
and health, and likely structured around hybrid models that will favor an improved
work-life balance. It is on these bases, and under this conviction, that JLL presents this
report, in order to analyze the complexities we all recognize but also looking ahead. With
all certainty, Latin America has what it takes to return to growth and offer increasingly
dynamic markets, adapted to the new normal currently taking form. We believe that the
best way to evolve is through research, analysis and knowledge. Therefore, this report
aims to contribute to a better understanding of the region’s real estate industry, as a tool
for all those involved in the shaping of its future.

Lastly, as was to be expected, all the surveyed countries saw unemployment rise, with Costa Rica and Colombia presenting the
most significant jumps. Indeed, these two economies not only saw the highest unemployment rates in 2020 but also were among
those with the largest interannual increases with respect to the preceding year. Additionally, Peru’s case is worth noting, since
unemployment more than doubled between 2019 and 2020 (however, despite this, it still presents one of the lowest levels in the
region).
*Argentina and Puerto Rico were not considered in the analysis of the inflation rate, since the source used for the report –the World Bank– does not include

Neuroarchitecture is the fusion between architecture and neuroscience, which is the integral study of the nervous system
considering its behavior, its functions, and its structure in order to understand its conducts and cognitive processes. This discipline
aims to comprehend how spaces can affect our brain and, on that basis, what their implications are on our behavior and
emotional state. Neuroarchitecture posits that the environment has a direct influence on the most primitive functioning patterns
of the brain, which are not controlled by our conscious perception.
Its goal is to design spaces not just based on intuition, but also according to solid, knowledge-based evidence.
