Expo Real 2024 in Munich brings hope for a return to the best years in investment
9 October 2024A moderately optimistic mood prevails at the Expo Real 2024 currently taking place in Munich. Participants in one of the world's most important real estate events are expressing hope that 2025 will bring results comparable to those seen in the investment market during its best years, both in terms of value and the number of transactions.
"At this year's Expo Real 2024 in Munich, moderate optimism is evident among investors operating in the Polish real estate market. During the meetings and panels, investors from the Baltic countries, as well as the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary, showed particular interest in Poland," says Bartłomiej Zagrodnik, Managing Partner and CEO at Walter Herz. "Although the mood remains cautious, many participants emphasized that the coming quarters could bring positive results for the Polish market," he adds.
Bartłomiej Zagrodnik emphasizes that the PRS (Private Rented Sector) and the residential market are the primary focus of attention. "Poland stands out in the region for its stability and favorable investment climate. This means investors and developers see great potential in the further development of this segment. Interest in the Data Center sector is also growing, gaining importance, although so far in Poland, this is a market where transactions are only just beginning to appear," admits Bartłomiej Zagrodnik.
He emphasizes that, in the opinion of Expo participants, the fourth quarter of 2024 promises to be dynamic. "Above all, further portfolio transactions and significant property acquisitions in the warehouse, office, and retail segments are expected. Numerous indications suggest that the final months of this year will be fruitful for transactions, which will allow us to close the year with a positive result and provide grounds for optimistic forecasts for 2025," he says.
Expo Real 2024 demonstrated that Poland remains an attractive investment market. Investors are optimistic about the future, hoping for further growth and market stabilization, a trend triggered by the recent interest rate cuts in the eurozone.
The International Real Estate and Investment Trade Fair EXPO REAL in Munich offers a comprehensive overview of events, topics, innovations, and solutions in the real estate sector. The event has been held in October since 1998. Industry leaders from around the world participate in the event.
