Dublin's industrial and logistics market experienced record-low take-up of 1.3 million square feet in 2024, the lowest since 2014, driven by a 79% decline in modern stock transactions amid severe supply constraints. The market outlook for 2025 anticipates recovery through 1.7 million square feet of new completions (with only 28% currently leased), alongside prime rent increases to €13.75–€14.00 per square foot from new fire safety regulations and trade policy uncertainty expected to constrain occupier decision-making.
Savills Research's 2025 Dublin office market review reports that Dublin 2 vacancy increased from 5.7% in 2021 to 16.3% by end-2024, but is expected to tighten significantly as grey space absorption accelerated in 2024 and 55% of newly delivered pipeline is already reserved. Prime benchmark rents in the CBD grew 4% year-on-year to €65.00 psf in Q4 2024—the first quarterly increase since Q2 2022—with the report projecting continued rental growth driven by occupier demand for high-specification, centrally located ESG-compliant stock and an expected surge in letting activity in 2025 underpinned by substantial pre-let commitments including Workday's 416,000 sq ft reservation.

The document identifies key sector challenges including supply slowdown caused by higher build costs and regulatory hurdles such as the Building Safety Act and Gateway 2 process, alongside findings that the total PBSA pipeline stands at nearly 200,000 beds with 23% under construction, while operational performance data shows the market returning to normal leasing patterns with expected rental growth of 4–5% nationally for 2025/26.

Lisbon's office market is undergoing a transformation driven by occupier demand for high-specification, sustainable buildings, yet only 15-20% of the city's total office stock currently meets Grade A standards, creating a significant supply-demand mismatch. European Grade A office development completions are expected to rise to 4.3 million square meters in 2025 but fall sharply to 3.1 million square meters in 2026, the lowest level since 2017, while speculative development has halved to just 1.6% of stock, with most new schemes pre-let prior to completion, intensifying competition for prime space and putting upward pressure on rents.
