Colliers: Romania land market slows in H1, developers position for 2027-2028

Romania's land market remained active in the first half of 2026 despite a slowdown in completed transactions, as developers continued acquiring sites for projects expected to reach the market in 2027-2028, according to a new report by real estate consultancy Colliers. Retail remained the strongest-performing segment, while residential land continued to attract investor interest despite a period of market adjustment.

Colliers said numerous land transactions are currently under negotiation or at the pre-contract stage, but relatively few large deals were finalized in the first six months of the year amid uncertainty over energy costs, construction budgets, and the domestic political environment.
