Absolutely agree. There are still plenty of companies out there who have the relevant covenants and ability to sign that 3 year lease.

However, as the economy evolves and high growth companies companies become the norm the number of people willing to commit to a 3 year lease will start diminishing. This not just because they are not able to forecast their financials, but they are not able to forecast their staff numbers either.

It's an interesting time for commercial property and it'll be intriguing to see how this plays out.
