Romania's real estate investment market closed 2024 with a total transaction volume of €750 million, marking the highest growth in transactional activity among the six largest economies in Central and Eastern Europe (Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia). For 2025, Colliers consultants expect a promising year, with a strong pipeline of transactions. Ongoing negotiations with a value in the range of €500 million suggests that investment volumes in 2025 have a good prospect of exceeding the levels of last year.
