Irish commercial real estate investment reached €814 million across 41 transactions in Q4 2025, with the living sector leading activity at 38% of turnover driven by record student accommodation deals, while retail rebounded strongly at 27% and international investors (particularly UK and German buyers) accounted for 80% of activity. The 2025 full year saw €2.44 billion invested across 122 transactions broadly in line with 2024, though deals over €50 million declined as a proportion of turnover from earlier quarters, and Dublin dominated with 78% of quarterly activity.
The Italian real estate market recorded €12.4 billion in investment volume during 2025, representing the highest level in six years and a 23% annual increase from 2024, with particularly strong performance in retail (€3.4 billion, up 39% year-over-year), hospitality (€2.4 billion), logistics (€2.2 billion), and living sectors (€1 billion, up 70%), alongside recovery in office investments (€1.9 billion) driven by core deals in Milan and Rome.

Dublin's office market achieved approximately 53,000 square metres of take-up in Q2 2026, with first-half 2026 totalling approximately 90,000 square metres, roughly 10% below the five-year H1 average but showing broadening demand beyond the central business district.

Knight Frank's H2 2025 report on Brussels offices analyzes a bifurcated occupier market where annual take-up reached 383,000 sq m (up 17% year-on-year), driven primarily by large deals above 5,000 sq m totaling 184,000 sq m, while smaller deals under 5,000 sq m stagnated at 199,000 sq m across 304 transactions. The report contextualizes this activity against Brussels's political crisis (exceeding 600 days without a government as of January 2026), credit rating downgrade by Standard & Poor's, and economic headwinds including weak Belgian GDP growth forecast at 1.1% for 2026 and rising public debt exceeding €14 billion.

Dublin office market activity moderated in Q4 2025 with 67,000 sqm of take-up, down from 75,400 sqm in Q3 but remaining 41% above Q4 2024 and exceeding the 10-year quarterly average of 58,200 sqm. Prime city centre rents remained stable at €678–€700 per sqm, the headline vacancy rate stood at 14.7%, professional services led occupier demand at 36% of take-up, and North American occupiers accounted for 31% of activity while domestic occupiers represented 22%.

The report notes that over €350 million in major transactions were completed in 2025, with strong backfilling activity including five Range and three B&Q deals, and identifies stable employment, rising real incomes, and tight supply as factors supporting retail parks as resilient investment opportunities aligned with Irish consumer trends.

Belgium's GDP growth is projected at 0.84% for 2025, slightly below the Eurozone average, with modest economic gains driven by public and corporate investment while household spending and export declines constrain expansion. The residential real estate market shows steady rental growth in multi-family assets at €1,255 monthly rent in Brussels with a 4.00% prime yield, though new regulatory caps on rents introduced in May 2025 add investor uncertainty, and demographic shifts toward aging populations and single-person households are reshaping housing demand across student, senior, and multi-family segments.

Investment activity surged significantly, with €587 million invested in logistics (including major deals by Deka Immobilien, Ares Management, and Weerts) and €174 million in semi-industrial (led by WDP's €100 million acquisition of the former Renault site in Vilvoorde), driven by institutional and international investor interest in Belgium's strategic location and strong occupier demand.

Poland's total industrial stock reached 36.03 million square meters in Q2 2025, with a vacancy rate of 8.2% and prime headline rents averaging EUR 4.80 per square meter across five core regional markets, reflecting stable leasing conditions dominated by lease renewals rather than new occupancy. The market showed resilience despite global economic challenges, with Poland's economy growing 3.4% year-on-year in Q2 2025, though construction activity declined 26% year-on-year to 1.47 million square meters under development, indicating developer caution about speculative projects.

The document projects that income growth rather than yield compression will drive returns in 2025, expects new supply of offices and private rental sector housing to fall approximately 65% while logistics declines 12%, and forecasts strong refinancing activity despite some distressed opportunities as interest rates remain elevated relative to pre-pandemic levels.

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.

Key findings state that Madrid and Barcelona entered 2026 with resilient office demand despite limited space availability, with quality Grade A and B+ buildings driving the market, declining availability putting pressure on prime stock, prime rents maintaining upward trends, and renewed investment interest focused on core and core-plus prime assets in established locations.
Spanish retail in Madrid and Barcelona started 2026 with balanced growth driven by consumption, tourism, and strong fundamentals, with fashion, leisure, and food & beverage sectors leading market performance amid a shortage of prime retail space and historically low availability.

The document attributes this modest positive momentum to improved economic conditions compared to 2022, broader investor participation across asset classes (led by Living at 28 percent of volume), and ongoing deal completion from transactions initiated in 2025, though geopolitical tensions and rising financing costs have created cautious sentiment among some market participants.

French commercial real estate investment volumes reached 1.94 billion euros in the first quarter of 2026, representing a 47 percent decline from the same period in 2025 and the lowest level since 2010, driven by political instability in late 2025 and geopolitical tensions in Iran that dampened investor confidence. Across asset classes, offices recorded 711 million euros, retail 895 million euros, and logistics 225 million euros, with the report noting that price adjustments by sellers and approaching refinancing deadlines are necessary conditions for market normalization, while bond market volatility reaching levels unseen since 2022 is expected to have full impact on investment volumes only in the second half of 2026.

Knight Frank's 2025 assessment of Paris's prime residential market finds that average prices have risen 12% since the pandemic to €22,730 per square metre, while sales volumes have declined sharply to 12,220 properties in the second half of 2024, creating a buyer's market in resale apartments but continued strength in new builds, pied-à-terres, and hôtel particuliers. Global wealth mobility is driving renewed international demand, with Paris ranked as Europe's top relocation destination across all age groups in Knight Frank's 2024 European Lifestyle Report, while domestic French demand remains subdued due to buyers locked into low-rate mortgages, though early signs of recovery are emerging as eurozone interest rates fall.
