Romanian real estate investment market ended Q1 with transactions of EUR 202 mln

The Romanian real estate investment market ended the first quarter with transactions of EUR 202 million, up 69 percent compared to the first three months of 2023, with the retail segment representing approximately two-thirds of the volume, according to the Colliers report "CEE Investment Scene Q1 2024".

Romania had the best performance compared to the other five major economies (Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), in a context where market activity in the region was reduced, and the volume of transactions registered one of the lowest levels in the last decade.

In the first quarter of this year, the local market generated 16 percent of the region's total investment volume, compared to 5-7 percent in the years before the pandemic.
