FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Belgium's office sector faces a patchwork of energy performance requirements across its three regions. Flanders requires EPC NR certificates for all non-residential buildings, starting with larger buildings and eventually covering all sizes. Brussels mandates EPCs for office units above a certain size when sold or leased, with universal requirements planned within the next decade. Wallonia will implement gradual requirements over several years. We guide clients through these complex obligations, ensuring compliance while maximising asset value.

Brussels office investment activity remains subdued, with limited transactions recorded recently. Investment volumes are expected to stay low until market conditions improve, reflecting cautious investor sentiment amid economic uncertainty and interest rate pressures. However, core assets in prime locations continue to attract institutional interest, and we position our clients to capitalise on selective opportunities as the market recovers.

Regional office markets show varied performance, with Flanders demonstrating greater resilience compared to Wallonia. Prime rents are climbing in cities like Antwerp and Mechelen due to a scarcity of quality space. Wallonia faces more challenges, though cities like Liège have seen rental growth in premium developments. We help clients identify markets and assets best positioned for sustained rental growth.

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive requires comprehensive ESG reporting from large companies starting soon. This impacts office decisions through mandatory disclosure of energy use, carbon emissions, and sustainability metrics. We help clients align office strategies with CSRD obligations, ensuring compliance while leveraging sustainability initiatives for a competitive edge in Belgium's increasingly ESG-focused market.

Belgium's office development pipeline remains active despite market challenges. Brussels has significant construction activity underway, while regional markets also anticipate new space in the coming years. Speculative developments face absorption challenges given subdued demand. We advise clients on pipeline positioning, pre-letting strategies, and development timing to optimise outcomes in Belgium's cautious leasing environment.
