What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Knight Frank’s Healthcare Capital Markets 2026 report found that the UK healthcare property sector is performing strongly, contrasting with subdued activity in other commercial real estate markets. Investment deals in 2025 reached a record £11.3bn, according to the report. The firm’s Active Capital Survey also indicated that 31% of respondents plan to increase or establish exposure to the sector, with 68% expecting to be net buyers in 2026.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Demand for healthcare property is not primarily driven by the economic cycle, as it is by offices or shops. This stability is supported by demographic pressures, including the Office for National Statistics projection that the UK’s over-85 population will double to 3.6 million by mid-2049. This suggests continued fundamental attraction and investment potential in the sector.
