Large infrastructure investments, significant salary growth above inflation, a stable external economic context, and central banks’ victory in combating inflation are helping the Romanian real estate market maintain a favorable outlook. However, results are generally mixed, according to Colliers Romania experts in their market report for the first half of the year, set to be released at the end of the month.
Colliers announces the promotion of Alexandru Atanasiu to Head of Construction Services and Member of the Board of Directors. Previously, he held the position of Deputy Head of Construction Services and Asset Services.
The first quarter of 2024 ended with real estate investments in Romania totalling 202 million euros, up 69 percent compared to the first three months of 2023, with transactions in the retail segment accounting for around two-thirds of the volume, according to a Colliers report. Compared to the other five major economies (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), Romania was the best performer in a context where market activity in the region was soft and transaction volumes reached one of the lowest levels in a decade.
2024 looks to be a very good year for strategic acquisitions in the land market, given the favorable long-term outlook.
Activity in the land market has slowed over the past year, but investor enthusiasm for Romania’s long-term potential remains stable. Demand for strategic land plots, which now can be secured at more interesting terms than in a highly active market, is growing, Colliers Consultants note. This trend is attracting the interest of major developers looking to strengthen their position in the property market.
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles are no longer just a trend or a buzzword, but rather becoming the norm in the Romanian real estate market.
The Romanian investment market recorded transactions of around 476 million euros last year, down by more than half over 2022’s cycle high of 1.25 billion euros, according to the 2023 Annual Report released by Colliers.
