Office & mixed-use development
In the first three quarters of 2026, tenants leased more than 590,000 sqm of office space in Warsaw, up 22 pct year on year. At the same time, the vacancy rate fell to 7.9 pct across the city and 4.3 pct in central locations. Limited new supply and rising demand are strengthening the position of landlords in prime office buildings and putting upward pressure on rents, according to Axi Immo’s report 'Warsaw Office Market Q1–Q3 2026'.
