Europe’s prime office market vacancy rate is expected to fall back to its 2009 level by the end of 2016 and then to continue declining over the rest of the decade, according to global real estate advisor, CBRE.

Three out of the five markets are anticipating rental growth over the next three years (Bratislava, Budapest and Prague).
