Home Credit is catering to clients for whom personal contact is still important when negotiating new products. In March, it opened two new branches - in the Korso Karviná shopping center and in Fontána in Teplice. Although more and more clients are concluding consumer loans online, in 2024 this was already more than 40% of negotiated contracts, brick-and-mortar branches still play a key role for many not only for negotiating products, but also as the first step and gateway to the digital world of finance.
Similar to Prague, Brno also recorded only a slight year-on-year increase in the supply of modern office space in 2024, with the total market size increasing by only 8,600 square meters. The same was true in Ostrava, where the construction of modern office buildings has been subdued in recent years, with exceptions, and the average annual completed area over the past 5 years is 5,800 square meters. Despite the lower supply, both cities represent an attractive alternative for investors - rental prices are stable and lag behind the Prague market. In Brno, at the end of 2024, the rent for premium office space in a modern design was EUR 17 per square meter per month, while in Ostrava it ranged between EUR 14 and 14.50. Other regional cities, especially Plzeň, Hradec Králové and Olomouc, could attract investors' attention in the coming years thanks to new projects and improving transport infrastructure. This is according to the latest analysis of the regional office space market by Colliers.
Office space in Karlín is among the most sought-after in Prague. Successful companies, especially in the fields of information technology and communication, are moving their headquarters here. Now, the major Czech communications group KNOWLIMITS is also planning to move here.
Investiční aktivita na trhu komerčních realit v České republice vystřelila v posledním čtvrtletí roku 2024 prudce vzhůru. Dokončeno bylo několik významných transakcí, jejichž celkový objem činil 740 milionů eur. Dominantním zdrojem investic zůstával i v tomto období český kapitál. Značnému zájmu investorů se těšil zejména maloobchodní segment. Po období rostoucích výnosových měr v letech 2022 a 2023 se „prime yieldy“ v roce 2024 stabilizovaly, a trh tak našel novou cenovou rovnováhu. Vyplývá to z pravidelného kvartálního průzkumu společnosti Colliers.

After recently opening offices in India and Romania, the Czech real estate consultancy 108 REAL ESTATE is expanding into the south-eastern part of Europe - the Adriatic. Since September, a new office has been operating in Zagreb, covering the real estate markets of Croatia, Serbia and Slovenia. Despite the territorial differences, the entire region is united by the growing interest of developers and tenants - especially in the field of industrial real estate. For example, the supply of modern warehouses and production space in prospective Serbia amounts to just 1.3 million sqm, which is less than new office space.
