Vacancy rates for industrial and logistics properties in Greater Copenhagen have risen from a record low of just above 2 per cent in 2022 to just under 6 per cent year to date in 2025, which is still below the 2013 and 2014 peak of 7 to 8 per cent. The increase can be partly attributed to false vacancies, strong rental growth and a shrinking supply of suitable space.

After a few years of relatively low transaction activity, the market has gained momentum in 2025. Up to mid-December, a total of DKK 69.8 billion had been traded, representing an overall increase of 53 per cent compared to the same period in 2024.
Several factors suggest that this trend may continue in the coming years. One significant factor is that many of the most well-funded investors have only increased their property investments to a limited extent since 2021. Therefore, considerable purchasing power remains on the sidelines. At the same time, interest in office and retail properties is growing, helping to spread demand across several segments.
The housing market is also expected to play a greater role in the future. As investors’ risk appetite increases and financing opportunities improve, many more residential projects are expected to be initiated. Experience also shows that transactions are typically completed faster and more smoothly in a rising market, as both buyers and sellers have greater confidence in price developments.
Overall, the picture painted by 2025 is of a property market back on track and with good conditions for further growth.
