The Romanian commercial real estate market opened 2026 on a cautiously optimistic note. Total investment reached €179.5M, up 6% year-on-year, with prime yields stable at 7.5% across all asset classes.

Office leasing held steady, with gross take-up of 46,521 sqm and demand concentrated in Bucharest’s CBD, Centre-West and Dimitrie Pompeiu submarkets.

The industrial sector showed resilient fundamentals despite a slower start, with tight vacancy at 5% and stable prime rents of €4.75/sqm.

The residential market saw transaction volumes soften but prices continued their upward trajectory, with new units in Bucharest averaging €2,540/sqm in March 2026.
