The continued fall in unemployment across Europe is leading to strong office demand and forcing tenants to look to non-Central Business District (CBD) locations, according to international real estate advisor Savills. Prime CBD rents are now on average 4% higher year-on-year (yoy) and 2% above the 2007-2010 rental peak, according to Savills latest European Office Market report for Q1 2018. The lack of affordable good quality space has pushed tenants into non-CBD locations where rents are still on average 70% lower than in CBDs, but are now rising 5.6% yoy and are currently 8% above the five-year average.

According to the research report 'City Special Rotterdam offices' published today by international real estate advisor Savills, the city’s relatively late start of withdrawing old office stock has resulted in a high vacancy rate (15.1%).
