According to Savills, around 824 million euros were turned over in the Düsseldorf real estate investment market in the 1st half of 2026. Compared to the same period last year, this corresponds to an increase of 166%. Compared to the 10-year average, the volume was 29% lower. In the last twelve months, Savills has registered just under 30 transactions, which is a 13% year-on-year decline. The prime yield for offices was 4.6% at the end of June, 10 basis points higher than the previous quarter and also 10 basis points higher than a year earlier. The prime yield for commercial buildings was 4.4% at the end of June, unchanged from the previous quarter and also unchanged from the previous year’s figure.
Brian El Sharif, Associate Investment at Savills in Düsseldorf, commented on the market as follows: “The environment remains challenging and transaction processes continue to drag on. However, the probability of a successful sale has increased noticeably. One of the main reasons for this is that owners and advisors check potential properties in advance in a much more targeted manner for their marketability. Although the product range has not grown as a result, it is much better suited to current demand. Since many sellers have also adjusted their price expectations to the changed market environment, everything points to a gradual increase in transaction activity in the coming months.”
With a transaction volume of EUR 470 million, office properties have contributed the most to investment turnover in the last twelve months, followed by residential properties* (approx. EUR 250 million) and industrial/logistics properties (approx. EUR 220 million).
* Only properties with at least 20 residential units
