14、ntained confidence in the sector.Despite the absence of major outlier deals,the trend of increased transactions slightly up on the year is testament to the healthcare sectors pulling power.Overseas capital was once again a key factor,accounting for 31%of transaction volume.This stems from a mix of b
15、oth European and North American capital continuing to find value in the sector.It is worth noting that,while it remains the largest contributor to transaction volumes,overseas capital was not as prominent in 2022,with occupiers and domestic REITs/listed investors taking back some share volume.With 2
16、022 volumes more organic than previous years,domestic capital is also showing interest.Average annualised returns sat at 3.50%at the end of Q4 22.When considered with the wider shocks felt by other commercial real estate classes over the past year,the sectors stability and return potential is even m

37、 direction.This further illustrates the resilience of the healthcare sector and its lack of sensitivity to wider economic shocks,when compared with more conventional real estate classes.Figure 4 presents transaction volume on a quarterly basis,as well as rolling four quarters.One trend highlighted b

45、S 20231011Following last years analysis,figure 6 illustrates a strip out of major deals(classified as any large transactions over 500 million).Although there are few such transactions(three within the last 10 years),the inclusion or exclusion of such deals can present a different picture or sentimen
46、t.The lack of major deals within 2022s volumes should be considered positive where volumes are not skewed.This has seen volumes moving towards a more organic state,built on a number of varied transactions,as opposed to a few high-value ones.For the year ahead,we anticipate the sector will maintain i
47、ts momentum in relation to recorded transactions,particularly as the sectors volume emerges as more sustainable.Figure 7 shows forecast volumes based on an average five-year growth,excluding any major deals(above 500 million).Essentially,we anticipate this further growth in volumes will be a result
48、of a combination of the sector normalising,more organic demand and high-capital investors seeking to opportunistically deploy funds.HEALTHCARE PROPERTYMAJOR DEALS10-YEAR AVERAGESource:Property DataFig 6:Recorded healthcare property transactions(bn)201220132014201520162017201820192020202120223.02.52.

56、get areas and much more.Figure 8 illustrates that in 2022,portfolio deals accounted for 72%of transactions,in comparison to single assets at 28%.This is an increase of 500 bps on last years figure,owing to transacting REITs and overseas capital,in their continued pursuit to grow assets under managem
57、ent.Single asset transactions will no doubt remain prevalent,especially in the private hospital sector,where we have seen notable large acquisitions.From figure 9,we can see how transactions by overseas investors in 2022 compares with the five-year total,whereby over time,overseas capital has become
58、 more prominent.However,2022 also experienced a dip in the share of transaction volume attributed to overseas capital.This is not owing to a lack of overseas demand,but more increased domestic demand eating into the overseas share,as REITs and private capital demonstrate more interest in the sector.
59、Figure 10 provides an insight into the target market areas from overseas capital over the last two decades.This analysis focuses on the location of capital and the sub-sector of healthcare that it flows into.We can see that US-based capital has historically been split between elderly care and privat
60、e hospital assets,whereas European-based capital has been more elderly care-focused.We are also witnessing an interest in specialist and childcare facilities.However,these are less prominent within the analysis due to less maturity in the space,in comparison to elderly care and hospital facilities.F
61、igure 11 provides an insight into the source of overseas capital in 2022.As in previous years,capital from the US is a large component of transaction volume;a trend not only seen in care but also within all broader property capital flows.However,healthcare seems to have a more even split between Eur
62、opean and US capital,which is responsible for 39%and 32%of overseas flows respectively.“In 2022,portfolio deals accounted for 72%of transactions in comparison to single assets at 28%.”Source:Property DataFig 9:Overseas share of healthcare property investment2022Overseas 51%Domestic 49%2018-20222022

67、t to which REIT and general domestic demand has eaten into the share of transactions attributed to overseas capital,showing 9%growth in comparison with the previous year.Healthcare as a sector remains diverse in its own right.From elderly care to private hospitals,investor capital has the benefit of
68、 options.Figure 14 shows which target areas have changed and which remained consistent for each investor type over the past few years.While elderly care has emerged as a target area for domestic demand,there has always been a substantial interest in private hospitals from overseas capital.This year,
69、however,has also seen the adult and specialist care space gain more,due to interest from REIT investors.Figure 13 presents net acquisitions and disposals over the past few years by investor type.Despite occupiers being more active,there is still a trend for occupiers to present themselves as net sel

82、s between these markets are first a new net supply of senior housing(as a percentage of existing stock)that is consistently lower in the UK than in the US.Second,the percentage of beds managed by the top 20 operators is much lower in the UK than in the US and Canada.Q:What is your current strategic
83、focus,and has this changed significantly from this time last year?Or even pre-pandemic?We believe the biggest opportunities are in addressing the need for purpose-built accommodation and improving the performance of existing assets through active asset management.For that reason,our focus is the bac

108、seen the gap significantly close on interest from overseas capital.This section of the report looks into the seven key healthcare REITs,which,at the date of their 2022 interim reports,had a combined portfolio value of 9.86bn across 2,669 care assets,producing a total rent roll of circa 526 million p
109、er annum.Over the years,these REITs have continued to grow in terms of portfolio values.Figure 21 presents these REITs by AUM,with Primary Health Properties being the largest,reporting a valuation of 2.9bn as at June 2022.In terms of combined value,due to a mixture of acquisition and organic growth,
110、this has increased from 6.99bn to 9.86bn between 2019 and 2022;an approximate 41.2%growth over the period or 12.2%on a compounded annual growth rate(CAGR)basis.As seen by the overall healthcare returns relative to other sectors,figure 22 represents the performance of healthcare REITs in comparison t

130、 designed and built by the illustrious engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel for Florence Nightingale the so-called Nightingale Hospitals had a major impact in reducing disease and death.Comparatively,the confluence of healthcare,property technology and venture capital is in its infancy.However,year-on-y
131、ear we are seeing more money spent on innovation and efficiencies across the board.Since the average human spends around 90%of their time indoors,one emerging opportunity is to improve the air quality within buildings.One business doing just this is Pathogen Reduction Solutions(PRS),whose air-handli

153、his is another sign of positive sentiment as REITs and private capital eat into the share of transaction volume attributed to overseas capital.Additionally,a more consistent and organic trend of transactions lends support to the view that the current level of demand for the sector is sustainable in
154、both the short and long term.Social impact and ESG will continue to drive interest towards the sector,due to the person-centred nature of healthcare creating a case for social impact investing.Both investors and occupiers will be searching for buildings with viable ESG credentials in line with their
155、 net zero and overall sustainability targets.Inflationary pressures such as energy,staff and food costs will be a point to watch for operators in managing their bottom lines as well as investors when underwriting deals and assessing rent/rent covers.Those with a reliance on debt will be exposed to t
156、he possibility of less desirable terms and therefore become more particular in their pricing of deals,creating opportunity for equity-based money to capitalise.It is,however,important to note that the debt situation may not be as negative as the news suggests,due to a number of investors under fixed
157、 terms as well as hedged with conservative loan to values.Healthcare as a sector certainly sits in a less exposed position than more conventional commercial real estate sectors.The upgrading or repurposing of standing assets for example,older,smaller and less fit-for-purpose buildings may present a
