The proximity to metro stations is one of the main factors influencing the price, availability and attractiveness of office space in Prague, accoding to a recent analysis by Colliers. The highest rents near Prague metro stations are found in the city centre, where prices for premium office space reach up to €30 per sqm per month. In the wider city centre, the highest rents go up to €22, and on the city outskirts, up to €16.50 per sqm per month. Differences between individual locations are becoming more pronounced, based not only on distance from the city centre, but also on building quality, the age of the office stock and the current supply of available space.

Office markets across the six largest CEE capital cities, Prague, Warsaw, Budapest, Bucharest, Bratislava, and Sofia, have entered a new phase characterized by a severe supply crunch.

The Czech industrial and logistics real estate market closed Q1 2026 with strong results, completing approximately 307,000 sqm of new space - the second-highest volume of new construction in a single quarter in history.

The Prague office market is showing signs of recovery as the developers launched three new office projects in Q1, and the volume of space under construction rose by 81% year-on-year. Pre-leasing is gradually returning, and there is a growing willingness to build speculatively without pre-secured tenants.

Romanian construction activity increased by over 6% in the first two months of 2026, following a record 2025, and remained the country's only major economic sector showing growth in April, according to Colliers analysis based on Eurostat data.

The European defence sector is undergoing a significant transformation, becoming increasingly diversified, innovation-oriented, and technologically advanced. Supported by defence investments totalling up to €800 billion, this development is directly influencing the geographic distribution of industrial activities and altering the structure of real estate demand across the region, finds a Colliers study.

Leasing transactions for modern office space in Bucharest increased by 14% in Q1 2026 compared to the same period last year, while new demand rose by 24%. However, the market remains below pre-pandemic levels, according to Colliers data.
