The era of comfortable office leasing conditions in Warsaw has come to an end, according to Walter Herz. Record-high demand, combined with the lowest level of developer activity in more than a decade, has led to a sharp decline in the availability of modern office space, particularly in the city's central business districts. As a result, landlords have gained significant leverage in lease negotiations, prompting a fundamental shift in the leasing strategies of the market's largest occupiers.
Finarto Investments has appointed Allcon as the general contractor for Park Kaszuby, a new retail park in Wejherowo.

The park is scheduled to open in November 2027.

The construction of Poland’s first nuclear power plant has reached an important milestone.

Dutch real estate group Van der Vorm is expanding into a new business line in Poland focused on asset-backed real estate financing.

KWKR advised Van der Vorm on the structuring and closing of the transaction.
In Q2 2026, Poland’s retail property market saw a clear upturn in new supply, with 134,500 sqm of space added. According to BNP Paribas Real Estate Poland, retail parks are the main driver of market growth, accounting for the largest share of both newly delivered space and projects under construction. The sector’s strength is also reflected in rising retail sales figures and the arrival of new international brands.
Office & mixed-use development
WSP Polska, a global engineering and consulting firm, has signed a lease with Karimpol Polska for 1,100 sqm of office space on the 12th floor of Skyliner II.

Warehouse & industrial
Poland’s industrial and logistics investment market recorded EUR 782 mln in transactions in the first half of the year, across 18 deals. This was 36 pct above the five-year average and the sector’s third-highest first-half investment volume on record, after 2020 and 2021. The strong showing was driven by more than a return of large deals, however. Investors are increasingly prioritising long-term, predictable income, while sale-and-leaseback transactions are becoming an increasingly important way of bringing assets to market.
Office & mixed-use development
Warsaw and Poland’s regional office markets are increasingly moving in different directions. In the capital, strong demand and limited availability of prime space are leaving tenants with fewer options, while greater availability in the regional cities gives companies more freedom to relocate.

Office & mixed-use development
Office take-up across Poland’s regional markets totalled 310,000 sqm in the first half of 2026, down 21 pct year on year.

These are the key findings of Axi Immo’s latest report, 'Regional Office Market: H1 2026', covering the country’s major office markets outside Warsaw.
