Investment activity in the real estate market of Central and Eastern Europe has increased significantly. According to a new report by Knight Frank, the total volume of real estate investment in the region reached €11.3 billion in 2025, which is 34% higher than the previous year. In addition, this figure was 24% above the five-year average, indicating a recovery of investor interest in the region’s property markets.

In 2026, the volume of investment could grow by about 15%, reaching approximately €13 billion.

📊 According to analysts, several key factors contributed to this growth:

— the return of investment activity after a period of high interest rates;
— increased participation from local and regional investors;
— improving macroeconomic conditions across Central and Eastern European countries.

🌍 The largest real estate markets in the Central and Eastern Europe region remain:

— Poland
— Czechia
— Hungary
— Romania
— Slovakia
— Bulgaria

In many of these countries, investment is actively directed toward office, logistics, retail, and residential projects.

📈 Analysts also highlight the growing role of domestic capital. While a large share of investment previously came from Western Europe and global funds, an increasing number of deals are now being carried out by investors from within the region itself.

This makes the market less dependent on external economic cycles and helps sustain investment activity even amid global uncertainty.

🏗 For investors, the rising activity in the Central and Eastern European real estate market means stronger competition for high-quality properties. As the investment market continues to recover, countries such as Poland, Czechia, and Romania may attract increasing amounts of international capital.

In an environment of growing investor interest, identifying suitable properties at an early stage can become an important factor when making investment decisions.
