Warsaw trails only London and Madrid, outperforming major hubs such as Paris, Milan, and Barcelona.
The city also climbed the rankings compared with the previous year, reflecting its growing appeal to investors.
Warsaw’s rise in the rankings reflects growing investor confidence in its commercial real estate market, marking the city’s transition from a regional player to a key contender alongside Western European hubs.
Analysts cite Poland’s strong macroeconomic fundamentals, solid growth forecasts, and robust rental market as key factors behind the city’s appeal.
The survey also highlighted Spain, the UK, Italy, and Germany as top destinations for 2026, with Spain leading due to its resilient economy, strong tourism sector, and relatively affordable property prices.
Overall, CBRE said Warsaw’s performance underscores its status as one of Europe’s most competitive and promising investment markets.
The findings are based on the CBRE European Investor Intentions Survey 2026, conducted between 4 November and 3 December 2025 among 698 global investors, who assessed European real estate markets for potential returns in 2026.
