PREFACE.
The trend in the Munich office real estate market, which emerged in 2010, has been confirmed and can
now be shown in figures.
Ellwanger & Geiger calculated office space rentals of approximately 590,000 m² in 2010 (including around
12,000 m² owner occupiered) , which shows an increase of approx. 12%, compared to 2009. This is espe-
cially a result of brisk rental activities in downtown Munich (approx. 47%) as well as the 2,000 m² rentals
(approx. 50%).The strongest sectors were consulting agencies and law firms with approx. 17.8% of the
rental activities of up to 2,000 m². There were a few major lettings (> 5.000 m²) in 2010. However expecta-
tions for 2011 quite positive because of rising demand and the already existing applications.
The weighted average office space rent remains stable compared to 2010 and is around € 14.20 /m². The
weighted prime rent is almost unaffected by the market activity in 2010 and is constant at € 28.00 /m².
A vacancy of about 1.8 million m² (8,3 %) was determined at the end of 2010. That means a vacancy rate of
8.3%. It is not expected that the vacancy rate will continue to increase significantly because new office
building constructions keeps decreasing noticeably.
A stable demand situation will thus support the upward movement of the Munich office rental market and
is expected to bring a consolidation over the next few months, a slight reduction at best. Generally, due to
the positive economic trend in Germany, an increasing positive development in the office rental market
can also be expected in 2011. This could mean office space rentals beyond 600,000 m².
