The ranking is part of the study “Emerging Trends in Real Estate: Europe 2022 – Road to Recovery", for which 844 decision-makers from real estate companies, investment managers and other industry experts in Europe were surveyed.

Compared to London and Paris, Berlin benefited from the short commute times to the city center – an aspect that became particularly important during the pandemic.
