Berlin's real estate investment market recorded €986 million in transaction volume during Q1 2025, representing a 116% increase compared to Q1 2024, with the market regaining its top position nationally from Munich; the surge was driven largely by the €400 million-plus sale of the Upper West to the Schoeller Group family office, supplemented by increased activity in medium-sized transactions.

Stuttgart's logistics market recorded take-up of 61,000 square meters in the first three quarters of 2025, down 29.9 percent from 87,000 square meters in the same period of 2024, driven almost entirely by small deals under 5,000 square meters with no major contracts exceeding that threshold.

The investment market showed early recovery signs in Q3 2025 with transaction volumes exceeding 80 million euros, driven primarily by private investors and family offices on the buyer side, with mixed-use properties representing the dominant asset class at 66% and a top gross yield of 4.8% for office properties.

The Stuttgart industrial and logistics real estate market recorded 45,500 square meters of transaction volume in the first half of 2025, representing a 29% decline from the previous year and 52% below the five-year average, with small-unit spaces accounting for 92% of transactions and 62% of total turnover. Prime rents stood at 8.50 euros per square meter and average rents at 7.20 euros per square meter, with demand concentrated in small-space segments while the absence of automotive sector demand and expiring leases are shifting the market toward a tenant-favorable environment with increased rental incentives.

BNP Paribas Real Estate's H1 2025 Investment Market report for Stuttgart documents commercial real estate transaction activity, finding approximately €183 million invested across the first half of 2025 (€71 million in Q1 and €112 million in Q2), representing 70% below the long-term average despite a marginal 2% year-over-year increase.

Cologne's logistics real estate market achieved 82,000 m² in transaction volume during Q1 2026, representing a 156.3% increase year-over-year and exceeding the ten-year average by 30%, driven largely by a single major logistics service provider contract of 35,000 m² in Bergheim.

Vacant space increased marginally to 942,000 sqm (6.4% vacancy rate), with transport and logistics accounting for nearly 22% of take-up led by MSC's 13,000 sqm headquarters relocation, while the outlook notes continued upward pressure on prime rents with the €40/sqm threshold potentially achievable in coming quarters.

Berlin's office market recorded 146,000 sqm of take-up in Q1 2026, representing a 42% year-on-year increase and the largest growth among German A-location office markets, driven primarily by six large lease agreements of 5,000 sqm or more compared to only one in the prior-year quarter.

Düsseldorf's investment market recorded 167 million euros in transaction volume during Q1 2026, representing a 32.8 percent year-on-year decline and marking the weakest first-quarter start in ten years, though deal count remained stable and net prime yields held steady at 4.50 percent for office and logistics properties and 3.95 percent for best-located retail buildings. Retail investments dominated Q1 activity at 50.5 percent of volume due partly to four transactions linked to CENTRUM insolvency, while deals under 50 million euros prevailed, no transactions exceeded 100 million euros, and geopolitical tensions posed ongoing uncertainty despite expectations for increased transaction frequency in subsequent months.

The Stuttgart commercial real estate investment market recorded €177 million in transaction volume during Q1 2026, representing a 50% decline versus the ten-year average of €351 million but an improvement over the weak first quarters of 2024 and 2025, with office assets contributing €110 million of the total and around a dozen deals marking the highest transaction frequency since Q1 2022. Prime yields shifted across asset classes in the twelve-month comparison, with office properties rising 10 basis points to 4.50%, retail rising 15 basis points to 4.00%, and logistics increasing 25 basis points to 4.50%.

JLL's Q1 2026 research report on Cologne's office market documents a subdued start to the year with take-up of 40,400 sq.m., down 43% year-on-year and 38% below the five-year average, driven primarily by the absence of large-volume transactions and tenants postponing relocation decisions. The vacancy rate rose to 5.1% with 407,700 sq.m. available, prime rent remained stable at €32.50/sq.m./month while weighted average rent declined 10% year-on-year to €19.80/sq.m./month, and JLL forecasts full-year 2026 take-up of approximately 230,000 sq.m. with continued slight vacancy rate increases and moderate prime rent growth anticipated.

The Stuttgart logistics and warehouse market achieved take-up of 69,000 sqm in Q1 2026, approximately 60% above the ten-year average and nearly triple the previous year's result, driven largely by a single industrial contract exceeding 30,000 sqm. Prime rents rose 2% to €8.70 per sqm and average rents increased 5% to €6.80 per sqm by end of 2025, with supply in the new-build segment particularly constrained and no new-build take-up recorded in the quarter.

Manufacturing companies and logistics service providers each accounted for approximately one-third of annual take-up, while contracts exceeding 20,000 square meters tripled to 185,000 square meters, and the report projects Frankfurt's market will likely exceed 500,000 square meters in 2026 driven by economic recovery and increasing supply constraints.

The Stuttgart warehouse and logistics market recorded 136,000 sqm of take-up in 2025, representing a 13% increase over the previous year but 29% below the ten-year average, with fourth-quarter activity accelerating significantly and accounting for more than half of annual volume.

The report forecasts that improved investor sentiment combined with federal economic stimulus should drive transaction volumes above €2 billion by end of 2026, supported by Hamburg's stable occupier markets, moderate vacancies, and signs of increasing rent levels in premium office segments beyond €40 per square meter.

The BNP Paribas Real Estate Q4 2025 office market review for Düsseldorf analyzes a weak year marked by 218,000 m² in transaction volume (down 0.9% year-over-year and 18% below the five-year average), with prime rents rising 5.7% to €46/m² and average rents increasing 5.3% to €20/m², while the market is characterized by a strong focus on small-to-medium spaces (86% under 5,000 m²) and a vacancy rate of 12.7% (the highest in Germany), driven primarily by demand from consulting firms (19.4% market share). The report notes that premium modern office space remains scarce despite rising vacancy, with only 4,000 m² of new build-to-suit available in top locations, and forecasts continued modest recovery dependent on slow economic improvement.

Prime rents remained stable at €46.00/m² in Q4 2025 but rose 5.7% over the full year, while vacancy rates increased to 11% (1.05 million m²) at year-end, driven primarily by new completions with only 46% pre-letting rates and structural workplace trends such as desk-sharing and flexible work concepts.

Cologne's office market recorded 250,000 square meters of space transactions in 2025, representing a 10.1 percent increase year-over-year but approximately 15 percent below the ten-year average of 292,700 square meters, though performing better than other major German office markets. Prime rents remained stable at 33.50 euros per square meter while average rents increased slightly to 19.00 euros per square meter, with public administration and miscellaneous services accounting for nearly 30 percent and 22 percent of market activity respectively, while overall vacancy rose significantly by 27.4 percent to 497,000 square meters.

The vacancy rate increased to 5.5%, prime rent remained stable at €34.00/m²/month, and weighted average rent rose to €22.60/m²/month, reflecting ongoing "flight to quality" toward modern, ESG-compliant spaces with good city-center connectivity.

Prime rents in the city centre reached a record €46.00/sqm (6% higher than the prior year), while average rents stood at €19.90/sqm (a 5% year-on-year increase), driven by limited modern office space availability in prime central locations.

Prime rents remained stable at €8.50 per square meter while average rents held at €6.50 per square meter, with supply constraints in larger space segments and macroeconomic headwinds expected to maintain upward pressure on rents despite the already elevated pricing level.
