The Budapest Research Forum (BRF, which comprises: CBRE, Colliers International, Cushman & Wakefield, Eston International, JLL and Robertson Hungary) sets out below its Q1 2017 industrial market snapshot.
Almost twenty million square metres of modern industrial leasehold are currently available in Central Europe. So strong is the interest on behalf of occupiers that the share of available space has dropped to a historical low of 5.7 per cent. To compare – the share of available office spaces is double that amount (12 per cent). The information comes from findings by Cushman & Wakefield, which has been monitoring the industrial property market in the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia over an extended period.
Both the development and take-up of industrial parks in Central Europe is continuing and slightly accelerating in comparison with last year, according to research from Cushman & Wakefield. The appetite for investing in commercial properties is also increasing, with a shortage on the supply side making buyers willing to pay more. This trend is most obvious for logistic and production facilities.
