The publication highlights the first signs of a recovery in the investment market in Europe, evidenced by the 8% increase in capital allocated to commercial real estate in the first nine months of the year compared to the same period last year, along with the stabilization of prime yields in the main markets.<\/p>\n<p>With regard to the national context, the following conclusions stand out from the 2024 balance sheet and the main trends that should guide the coming months:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Portuguese economy has had its growth revised downwards to <strong>1.6%<\/strong> in 2024 by the Bank of Portugal, after a slight slowdown in the second and third quarters of the year. Even so, it should grow above the Eurozone average, which is expected to be <strong>0.8%<\/strong> this year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Investment in commercial real estate in Portugal amounted to around one billion euros up to September, a figure consistent with the same period last year. The third quarter of the year saw the largest transaction of the year so far, with the acquisition of <strong>Alegro Montijo<\/strong> by <strong>Lighthouse Properties<\/strong> for <strong>\u20ac177.8 million<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the period under review, <strong>retail<\/strong> was consolidated as the most attractive sector, with more than <strong>30%<\/strong> of capital invested, following the growth trend seen last year. In this context, there is a greater appetite among investors for supermarkets and retail parks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In addition, there has been a clear recovery in investment in offices, while <strong>hotels<\/strong> remain attractive and are consolidating their position as the <strong>second most attractive sector<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The <strong>investment market<\/strong> remains resilient, although there is no sign of the long-awaited growth, due to the effect of lower interest rates and improved financing conditions. Investment in 2024 is expected to be close to <strong>two billion euros<\/strong>, but a sharper increase is only expected in 2025.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The <strong>office sector<\/strong> recorded an occupancy volume of <strong>168,546 m\u00b2<\/strong> in <strong>Greater Lisbon<\/strong> up to September, with demand more than doubling compared to the same period last year, even surpassing the total absorption of 2023.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In the third quarter, one of the year&#8217;s <strong>main operations<\/strong> took place, with <strong>Deloitte<\/strong> occupying the entire <strong>Rato 11 building<\/strong> (zone 2), with more than <strong>8,000 m\u00b2<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Zones 5<\/strong> (Parque das Na\u00e7\u00f5es) and <strong>3<\/strong> (Emerging Zones) achieved the highest take-up volumes (<strong>32%<\/strong> and <strong>25%<\/strong> respectively).
