The Scotland Report 2025: Glasgow Offices, Retail & Industrial Investment
Knight Frank's 2025 Scotland Report provides a cross-sector review of the Scottish commercial real estate market covering offices, manufacturing, and retail, finding that while leasing activity shows resilience particularly in major centers with concentrated demand for high-quality assets, legacy stock faces obsolescence risk and secondary properties struggle to attract investment unless significantly repriced. The report details that Edinburgh office take-up grew 62% in 2024 underpinned by a major HBOS lease of 282,000 square feet, Glasgow take-up rose 37%, and prime rents have increased notably with Edinburgh experiencing 30% growth since March 2020, though new development pipelines remain constrained with only 38,361 square feet of new space available in Edinburgh.
