Wroclaw offices in 2025 recorded a historic record of tenant activity, reaching a lease volume of nearly 180,000. sq. m. According to a recent report by consulting firm Savills, despite unprecedented demand, the city is facing a high vacancy rate (19.9%) and an almost complete halt in new supply, leading to a marked polarization of rental rates.
Wroclaw offices in 2025 recorded a historic record of tenant activity, reaching a lease volume of nearly 180,000. sq. m. Despite unprecedented demand, the city is struggling with a high vacancy rate (19.9%) and an almost complete halt to new supply, leading to a marked polarization of rental rates.
The Wrocław office market closed 2025 with a total stock of 1.33 million sqm The largest zone remains the Center (36% share), followed by the West (33%) and South (22%) zones. Although last year brought no new buildings put into use, demand reached the highest level in the history of the Lower Silesian capital – 179,600 sqm, up 23% year-on-year. The fourth quarter was particularly intense, with contracts signed for 75,600 sqm.
However, the structure of demand indicates that companies are very cautious. Renegotiations remained the dominant form of transactions, accounting for 57% of the total volume. New deals accounted for 30%, while expansions accounted for 10%. The business services (23%), IT (17%) and manufacturing (16%) sectors showed the most activity.
– The Wrocław market is at a turning point. On the one hand, we have record tenant activity, and on the other, an almost complete slowdown in new investments, resulting in zero new supply in 2025. The record scale of renegotiations confirms that companies are now focusing on cost optimization and efficient use of their space, rather than expansion. We are seeing a strong polarization: top-quality buildings in prime locations are holding the price and attracting tenants, while older buildings in inferior locations are having to compete more aggressively for customers with rental rates. This quality gap will continue to widen until new high-standard projects hit the market – says Dorota Koscielniak, Director, Office Agency Wrocław, Savills.
The supply situation remains difficult. Currently, there are only two projects under construction in the South Zone with a total area of 20,400. sq. m. – Swobodna SPOT and The Park Wroclaw 2, both with completion dates in 2026. – The lack of new supply in 2027 and the uncertainty of projects planned for 2028 could soon lead to a shortage of modern Class A space , Dorota Koscielniak adds.
Despite the lack of new buildings, the vacancy rate has risen to 19.9% (266,300 sq. m. of space). As much as 80% of the vacant space is in older buildings and complexes, which, with the current “flight to quality” trend, makes it difficult to commercialize them quickly. Rents for prime offices rose to EUR 17.00/sq.m./month, while in less attractive locations rents in A-class projects fell to EUR 13.50. Service charges have stabilized in the range of PLN 20.00-30.00/m
2026 PROJECTIONS:
- Continued dominance of renegotiation and space optimization.
- Maintain a hybrid work model (mostly 4+1).
- Increased importance of buildings available “immediately” due to the limited pipeline of projects under construction.
