Over H1 2024, the office stock in the CEE region grew by 213,000 sqm, with the largest increase recorded in Budapest (78,300 sqm). The majority of the markets still experience subdued construction activity as vacancy rates remain higher than 10%. The development pipeline is largely dependent on pre-lease agreements, with a limited number of speculative starts. The only exception is Prague, where the under-construction volumes nearly doubled as compared to the end of 2023. The overall vacancy rate in the CEE capitals recorded a minimal increase over H1 2024 and stood at 11.6%, against 11.5% in Q4 2023. Muted construction activity will push the overall vacancy rate downwards in the mid-term. A decrease in availability will be more prominent in the prime market segment as occupiers follow „fly to quality” trend. JLL experts, in cooperation with iO Partners, present an analysis of the trends observed in the office market in Poland against the background of countries in the CEE region.
