Office space rent – city Amsterdam
€/sqm per year
Amsterdam's prime office market shows two distinct growth phases. From 2016 to 2019, rents climb steadily from €165 to €185 during stable economic conditions. Covid-19 triggers stagnation in 2020–2021 (€185–€188) as hybrid working adoption dampens traditional office demand. The market then accelerates sharply from 2022 onwards, reaching €343 by 2026. This reversal is driven by three dynamics: (1) rising interest rates from 2023 redirect institutional capital toward real estate underweighting, (2) scarcity of grade-A stock in tier-1 cities constrains supply, and (3) user migration toward premium, well-located office space following the hybrid-work reset. The 108% cumulative growth is heavily skewed toward 2022–2026, reflecting structural undersupply rather than occupier demand.
