Attractiveness of Corporate Real Estate Investing in EU Cities
More than two-thirds of the European population lives in urban areas. Urban problems and challenges in cities are solved by new solutions and approaches, very often with the aim to boost the economy of the city. One of the demand-drivers is corporate occupiers, both for commercial and industrial real estate development. They are important to the economic success of a city and country and play a key role in the way a city functions and grows.
In order to better understand the economic success which stands behind some of the world cities we will discuss the findings of the RICS research report Corporate Real Estates: Investment in EU cities. We will look into what drives choice to invest in property in a certain city, as well as the impact EU legislation has on the real estate sector.
