Prague is emerging as a key driver of Europe's retail recovery in 2025, according to Savills Research European Retail Market. The Czech Republic ranks among Europe's top-performing economies, with real retail sales expected to grow by 4.1% this year, outpacing Germany (2.7%), France (2.3%) and the United Kingdom (0.8%).

Czech investment group SPM has acquired Campus Science Park, a business complex in Brno, from Corebridge Real Estate Investors (CREI). The complex was developed in phases by CREI in partnership with developer White Star Real Estate.

Savills Polska has taken over management of the V Tower office building at Chmielnej 85/87 in Warsaw from early November. The building represents one of the most comprehensive office modernisations in recent years, combining modern technology, environmental solutions and timeless architecture.

Skanska has sold the second phase of Wrocław's Centrum Południe office complex to Investika Real Estate Fund in joint venture with Bud Holdings for €62 million. The deal marks Investika's second acquisition from the developer after P180 in Warsaw.

Investment volumes in the Czech commercial real estate market could reach €3.9 billion in 2025, according to a Savills analysis. In Prague alone, commercial properties worth approximately €2.5 billion are currently at various stages of sale - the highest amount of assets offered in the past ten years. The majority of available properties are office buildings and mixed-use properties combining retail and office space. Hotels and industrial or logistics assets represent a smaller share.

Investment activity in the Czech commercial real estate market is now primarily driven by domestic capital, while in the long-term trend, local capital accounted for one third of the total investment volume. Over the past three years, however, the balance has shifted this year, and Czech investors represent 80% of all transactions completed to date, according to a Savills analysis.

According to the latest Savills report, the supply of modern office space in Poland's eight largest regional cities reached 6.73 million sqm. While the market shows signs of stabilisation, new supply has slowed significantly. Between January and September, only 18,000 sqm of office space was delivered - 76% less than in the same period of 2024.

European investors are shifting capital from traditional commercial real estate to operational sectors, with purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) emerging as the most sought-after segment for the first time, according to Savills' investor sentiment survey.

Finding a vacant space in the highest-quality office buildings in central Prague has proven to be a mission impossible. According to Savills’ analysis, vacancy in AAA properties has consistently remained at zero.

Warsaw's office market is entering a mature phase, characterised by concentration of new supply in central zones and historically low vacancy rates in the city centre. According to Savills Poland's latest report, 88,700 sqm of new space was delivered from the beginning of the year to the end of the third quarter, while the volume of projects under construction dropped by 50%.
