A new market overview from Lansley Commercial shows that commercial lettings in Reading remain active in early 2026, although occupier decision-making has become more measured. Businesses are taking longer to commit, with greater emphasis on flexibility and value.

The article notes continued demand for well-located retail, health & wellness and service space, particularly in Reading town centre, Caversham, and surrounding districts. Occupiers are prioritising realistic rents, short to medium lease terms, and ready-to-use units, while landlords offering incentives such as rent-free periods or break clauses are seeing stronger interest.

This reflects a wider national trend across commercial listings, where flexibility and clarity are increasingly influencing leasing decisions. Markets like Reading continue to perform when stock is priced competitively and clearly marketed, particularly for small and mid-sized occupiers seeking adaptable space rather than long-term commitments.
