During the entire 2015, the consultants estimate that the volume of the investments in Europe will reach EUR 230 billion, the highest level after 2007.

The study shows that the level of rents for the office buildings registers an acceleration of growth in cities such as Bucharest, London, Paris, Madrid and Brussels, while it slows down in Vienna, Munich and Frankfurt, registering drops in Moscow.

„In Europe, the transaction volume is close to the levels registered by the market in 2007 and many countries could register records this year “, has declared Andrew Sim, European Capital Markets Director within Knight Frank.

In the last 12 months, the increase of the office rents was moderate, except for Dublin and London, but Knight Frank anticipates increase in office rents in the following quarters, mainly due to the low offer of available spaces in many centres in key-cities in Europe. (source: zf.ro)
