The portfolio included office buildings, shopping centers, a hotel, and an industrial park, showing clear diversification in investment placements.

“Romanian capital is maturing, and more entrepreneurs are choosing real estate investments for their stability, yield, and diversification. In 2025, we are seeing active participation from local investors in the office and retail segments,” said Nicolae Ciobanu, Managing Partner, Head of Advisory, at Fortim Trusted Advisors.

The largest acquisition by a Romanian investor was Paval Holding’s purchase of the Ethos House office building in Bucharest for EUR24 million. Other transactions, ranging between EUR3 million and EUR20 million, targeted office and retail properties in Bucharest and regional cities, including CSDA Siriului, Pipera Business Tower, and Winmarkt Somes in Cluj-Napoca.

The UK ranked second with EUR156 million in transactions, all made by M Core, which purchased seven retail parks and Focsani Mall. Hungary placed third with EUR52 million, represented by Granit’s acquisition of the Equilibrium 1 office building (20,700 square meters). The Romanian market also attracted investments from Japan, Spain, Israel, Lebanon, Cyprus, and Belgium.
