Trikaya Investment Fund is changing its strategy to ensure stable returns for its investors and it is now adding residential projects to its portfolio. The first is the Brno project Čtvrť Pod Hády by the Trikaya development group of the same name. The estimated value of the entire project is more than CZK 4 billion (€168.5 million), writes e15.cz.

Demand for office space in Brno is changing, companies are more reserved towards commitments due to higher costs. New construction will bring additional metres to the market, which, together with the tenants’ behaviour, will gradually decrease its absorption. Vacant meters will be filled gradually and slowly, which could be fuelled by the arrival of more international companies, says Cushman & Wakefield´s analysis.

Brno-based developer Domoplan will start to build over 400 flats in a new residential area in Brno next year. The Brixx project will offer housing for around 1,000 people and will cost around €169 million, the developer announced, according to a report by ČTK.

The second half of 2022 has brought 33,000 sqm of office space to the Brno office stock up to the final of 664,400 sqm. There were five new office buildings that were completed and six more are under construction now. At this moment, Ostrava has only one project under construction with the completion scheduled for 2023, says the Regional Research Forum in its latest report on H2 2022.

The UDI Group has acquired an industrial site in Brno in January, which it will operate for the time being while preparing for future redevelopment. At the moment, the plan is to build offices and hotel-type accommodations. If the city changes the zoning plan, as it seeks to do, the developer's final project may change to reflect this.  Construction would be done in phases, with the first phase to begin within two years. The developer announced the acquisition without disclosing the transaction price.

Brno has changed over the past two decades. A total of 635,900 sqm of office space currently exists in the city thanks to the strong growth of companies from the business and IT services and R&D sectors. Brno Spielberg, along with the city centre around Vlněná Street, has become home to companies that create advanced technologies and innovations for global businesses. The city is preparing to expand this space – it will soon add almost 100,000 sqm to the currently unoccupied 70,900 sqm of modern office space, says Colliers in its latest report.
